Giles/tea vid and icons
Jul. 12th, 2015 10:36 pmToday was my posting day at
summer_of_giles, and my contribution was an icon set dedicated to my favourite Giles pairing: Giles/tea. Here are some teasers; the full set is behind the cut below.
This isn't the first time I've made a tribute to this particular pairing. I also made a vidlet about it, back when (SPOILER) Giles died in the Season 8 Buffy comics. (Don't worry, he's alive again, though a bit changed, see icon 18.) Here's the vid, aptly named TEA. Then, on to the icons!
Here is the full
summer_of_giles icon set:
Of course I also made lots of alternative versions. Here are a few of them:
I had actually meant to enter 8a into
whedon_elite challenge #121, but apparently I made a mistake converting the deadline to my local time, and so I missed it. Gah!
Credits:
- In icons 1, 4, 9, 13 and 15, I used textures by
colorfilter that were kindly provided to me by
red_satin_doll. Many thanks to both!
- For the table I used the icon table generator from http://icontable.morning-songs.com/

A perfect compliment! And how wonderful is it that you have a matching icon?

Icons aren't used on Tumblr, I fear.

Date: 2015-07-12 11:30 pm (UTC)Oooh, actually I remember that from when I was only a lurker on LJ! Obviously I didn't comment then, but that can be remedied now.

It's an outrage!
