Just clearing out about half of my large cache of classic icons waiting to be posted. All of the icons below have been previously seen on this journal as texture examples, but this post compiles them for more convenient browsing. Featured actors are Fredric March, Ann Sheridan, Carole Lombard, Basil Rathbone + Nigel Bruce (Sherlock Holmes movies), Audrey Hepburn, Rita Hayworth, and Olivia de Havilland.

Thirty icons in all )

Two new small texture sets: a new twist on my ScratchGrunge series, and a woodgrain-patterned set.

I must apologize for what's been rather a lack of icons on this icon journal of late. I have been concentrating more on writing recently--and it also doesn't help that the icontests I took part in, which were my main creative motivation, all seem to have dried up! (But on the upside, I have a ton of pictures from Halloween Horror Nights 2009 just waiting to be chopped into textures. Among other things, there will definitely be more Ghost Lights textures coming. *g*)

These icons have appeared as usage examples for my texture sets, but I'm displaying them here in a separate icon post. It includes Grace Kelly [8]; Lauren Bacall [8]; Louise Brooks [8]; Cary Grant [4]; Lana Turner [4]; Fredric March [4]; Joan Blondell [3]; Olivia de Havilland [3]; and Gene Tierney [3].

Too sleepy for a humorous cutline... )

I apologize that it's been a while since I posted any icon texture sets. I've had tech problems and other "fun"--but I'm back now with two rather muted stony sets, Sandstone and Limestone.

Preview and download here--and tell me what you'd like to see next! )

Forty-two icons this month, starring: Cary Grant [10--also including Kate Hepburn and Grace Kelly]; Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers [8]; Dick Powell [8--also including Ruby Keeler]; Alice Faye [6]; Joan Blondell [5]; Abbott and Costello [1]; Danny Kaye [1]; Fredric March/Clara Bow [1]; William Powell/Myrna Loy [1]; Errol Flynn/Olivia de Havilland [1].

Sweetness and sass )

By the way, I thought I should give notice that my iconage for this month may be less prolific. I've lately been feeling an urge to write instead of playing around in PaintShop, so hopefully I can put some time toward striking at my literary aspirations while the iron is hot. *g*

Time once again to give my main man some love! These thirty James Cagney icons were made in connection with his recent challenge at [livejournal.com profile] classicicontest.

What am I supposed to do now--start chewing the furniture? )

Most of my graphic output was dispersed through the month in the form of Christmas gifts, but there are still thirty icons here--mostly icontest leftovers and spare bases I finally had time to work on. Here are Deborah Kerr, Janet Gaynor, Danny Kaye, Joan Blondell, Basil Rathbone, Katharine Hepburn, Tyrone Power, James Cagney, Clara Bow, Ginger Rogers, and Olivia de Havilland.

It's another girlish batch... we had a pink challenge. )

Thank you all for being part of Wolfbane Icons' first year. Have a happy new year full of bright and shiny icons!

It's a few days early, but since my disk full of "pending icons" is filled to bursting, I really need to get some of them cleared out!

Here are thirty-six icons: [8] Abbott and Costello; [4] Vincent Price; [2] Vincent Price & Peter Lorre; [5] James Cagney (most with Frank McHugh and/or Pat O'Brien); [1] Edward G. Robinson; [2] Anthony Perkins (Psycho); [6] Jean Harlow; [3] Olivia De Havilland; [2] Margaret Dumont; [3] Disney animated (Snow White and Bambi).

It's quite a rogues' gallery, isn't it? )

Next up, I will be posting twenty-eight X-Men icons in the next couple of days, after the results of one last icontest are in.

I've hit a stride with my icons; out of the thirty-eight in this selection that were entered in icontests, roughly half of them placed. The award banners are now on display in my trophy case. Including some previously unreleased extras, there are a total of 53 icons here: 40 classics and 13 X-Men. Enjoy!

Classics: 9 Grace Kelly, 6 Humphrey Bogart, 4 Gary Cooper, 4 Olivia De Havilland, 4 My Man Godfrey, 3 James Cagney, 2 Cary Grant, 2 Barry Fitzgerald, 2 Anna May Wong, 1 Fredric March, 1 Danny Kaye, 1 Pat O'Brien, 1 Audrey Hepburn )

X-Men: 7 Wolverine, 2 Beast, 1 Cyclops, 1 Magneto, 1 Storm, 1 Angel )

I've only done a handful of icons so far this month, but I can tell you already that my next assortment will include Bud Abbott and Lou Costello, the subjects of a current icontest challenge. Wish me luck with them! *g*

On the last Sunday of every month, I will be posting the month's roundup of challenge icons, along with "challenge rejects" that I made for icontests but chose not to submit (and perhaps any other loose icons I have on hand). Most of them will probably be classic film-related in the foreseeable future, but just about anything might turn up.

Since this is the first such post, all of the icons I've made for [livejournal.com profile] classicicontest are here, as well as some recent strays that I missed in my backposting. But amidst all of the old news (at least for some of you), there are a few icons here that have never been displayed before.

25 icons: James Cagney, Danny Kaye, Frank McHugh, and many more )
