Icon Posting Project - Day 11

[byslantedlight]

It has been quite the unexpected and exhausting day today (in a good way - I ended up on an eight plus mile walk up our local hill rather than staying home and being domestic, though I did start out by making elderberry cordial... *g*), but I'm determined to make my icon post!

Today's icon is finally our two lads together again! It's another one that I made myself, and it's very simple, but its from a scene I love, in Mixed Doubles of course.

I love that its' so automatic for the lads to sit so close together. Doyle just goes over and sits down that close to Bodie to talk to him, even though they have that huge room and he could presumably just sit on his own bed and so on. But no - he sits soooo close to Bodie... *sighs happily*

And of course they're so serious about the job they're on too, and we find out more about them as people. Bodie would consider using dum-dums, and Doyle would absolutely not...

You've got or made a lot lovely icons. Didn't you say you are not good in that *g*
The story behind this one makes me thinking about that scene of MD. I am searching my brain, but I can't remember their surroundings at all.
Anyway, quite an usual colour of Bodie's shirt, isn't it ?
That makes this icon special too.

Well I can never picture them the way I want them to turn out really - I just choose a picture and try stuff, and I'd love to be able to make them properly sharp, and use brushes and things like people do... I'll keep practicing though. *g* This one was nice and simple to make, anyway! And thank you!

They're in Macklin's training place I think - I'm trying to remember too! It's quite a big space though, and at one point Doyle wanders away and stands with his back to Bodie, and I love that image too. I don't think I have it as an icon, but I know I've seen that someone has...

Love your Icon posting!
And even more, that you throw in little pieces of your live!

Oh, the reasons for this icon makes it even more perfect!

Hello - and thank you! *g* I'm hoping to make a life-post later today, actually... *g*

One of my favorite picture of the lads. They're just so serious! A great icon.

It's a good one, isn't it - so thoughtful and yet so together at the same time, despite their differences!

Thank you! *g*

That's a beauty... So much goodness in a tiny square! I love the way you've caught them at the perfect angle, the perfect closeness, the perfect expressions. ♥️
Also glad you had a good long walk and got your syrup made!

So much goodness in a tiny square!
Thank you! And what a fab way to describe icons - that's perfect!
