Challenge 26
theme challenge
Carry It On 2
⭐📽️⭐

For this challenge take something - a color, a technique, a genre, a franchise, an actor, or whatever - from your first icon and carry it over to use on your second icon, then take something from your second icon and carry it into your third icon, and so on, for all your entries.
You will have to create a minimum of two (2) icons to enter this time.
(You may notice, this is the same theme as challenge 14 .)
Fun fact: This challenge was popular at capicontest in 2017 and 2020.
If you would like, try to do what was suggested by the mod then, and connect something in your very last icon to your first one, for a tougher challenge.

Please use the supplied screen caps from the posts at

capspiration listed below.
Post dates for this challenge:

Start at September 14th, 2024 and stop at October 17th, 2024.

Taking Sides
⭐📽️⭐

For this challenge the subjects/characters shown in the icons should be framed to be away from the middle of the icon square space. Subjects can be framed or cropped off by an edge or not. Since we are using provided caps, if there is more than one person in the image they do not all have to be totally on the side or cropped off a side, mostly important is that the icon subjects are off-center.

Please use the supplied screen caps from the posts at

capspiration listed below.

Lunar Landing
⭐📽️⭐

Last month was the 55th anniversary of the Apollo 11 Moon landing, so this is a inspo theme to make icons that show inspiration from that event and lunar exploration.
I have included inspo icons and links to stock images and six Colourlovers color palettes.

Option 1. You may use the given items or find your own items to decorate your icons and combine them with any colors you want for the Moon exploration theme.
Option 2. If you want to use only color palettes and no Moon theme items, you must use the provided palettes from this post.
Please note which palettes you have used in your challenge entry if you choose the color palette theme.

Color Palettes
⭐📽️⭐

For this challenge we have two color palettes I found on Colourlovers when I searched the site for "flight of the conchords." Colourlovers has been under maintenance a lot lately, but I put a small image of the palettes for backup if the palette badges go offline.

Some special rules for color palette challenges:
Please use one color palette for each individual icon.
You may use both palettes if you are making two (or more) different icons.
Icons do not have to have the exact colors from the hex codes.
Palette colors should be the dominant or main colors but other colors can be on the icons, too.

Enclosure
⭐📽️⭐

For this challenge we can create icons with subjects that are away from the sides of the icon, so it looks like they are enclosed within it. In other words, no part of the character's body should be on or overlapping any of the sides or edges of the icon. Subjects should be totally "contained" within the icon space.
Some ways to do this are shown in the example icons below - far away crops, "floating" cut-outs, adding borders, frames, or otherwise covering part of the subjects so they do not go over any of the sides.
