114, total






Not going to lie, I'm a little embarrassed to be watching something called, "Teen Wolf." I'm not MTV's target demographic and the main characters are far too young for me but some of the ancillary characters are HOT and the show spends a lot of energy figuring out how to get the men out of their shirts. I am shallow. Very, very shallow. Some of the writing is good (the long-term story lines) and some of it's very not good. They're employing gorgeous women (Including Buffy's Kendra! I loved Bianca on Buffy and I love her here, too!) who are lots of fun to icon; I'm struggling to find a cap of Deacon that I like for iconning so sadly no Deacon yet.

Did I mention the men spend a lot of time without shirts?

It was kind of a relief to return to the mature men of SPN, where I don't feel vaguely uneasy about the actors' ages. I love show but I'm Supernaturaled out this week. I'm having some issues with the way the boys have changed over the years (went from saving people, hunting things! to just hunting things) and haven't changed (still lying to protect the other) that I find disturbing and frustrating. I was very sad to see Abaddon go; Alaina Huffman is so drop dead gorgeous and she owns every scene. I've seen rumbling about Dean's new colorful wardrobe, which I get from a characterization PoV. From an iconning PoV, I'm all for something not drab and same old-same old so it's a wash for me.

If we'd get fewer layers of shirts, of any color, and more Supernatural shirtlessness I would be in Heaven. \o/

The scientist icons were something I started back in 2011 but I lost my source caps in a HD failure. It took a surprising amount of time to gather them in the first place so I think I'll call this done though I had lots more planned.

Watson and Crick but no Rosalind Franklin? ngl I'm a little disappointed ;D
I'm soooo excited to see scientist icons on LJ! You've done well with this whole post!

OMG, I love you so hard. I started the scientist icon project years ago and one of the reasons it took me forever and a day was because of exactly this sort of thing: should I icon Watson and Crick, the jerks, but not Franklin? Nobody is going to know who she is (grrrr) but it's WRONG to icon the guys who got all the glory and not the woman whose pioneering work made theirs possible. I eventually planned to include her for completeist/right reasons but after I made some icons, I stalled (publicity photos are *hard* -- they're so visually boring), and then a HD crash took all those lovely caps. All of which is no good excuse for having the boys and not Ms. Franklin.

I am just so thrilled that anyone else knows who she is!!!

The Watson and Crick icon is a really well construction and coloured icon but yeah I can't see past those two jerks being in it hahaha.
I think the problem with iconning is that sometimes the people you want to make icons of don't always result in good quality icons (main reason I don't icon Neil DeGrasse Tyson for every since icontest, I've tried so many times and failed!). You totally make up for missing Franklin though with the Charles Darwin icons, that man is my hero *is a nerd for his soil studies*
