NR #13: Maximum Ride (The Final Warning) - James Patterson

NR #12: Cosmic - Frank Cottrell Boyce

 

I think I'm in love with doing these kinds of icon because they fit with every single story. They have each personal mood and layouts. In this icon, the boy was Liam Digby, a 12-year-old boy in the story who thought that he is tall so he and other people would view him as some guy who was 30 years-old. The font that I used for the word "Cosmic" was from Dafont. Its name is "Electric". I tried another different style this time because I don't really want to repeat the same style that I did in the last two icons. 

NR #11: Maximum Ride [School's Out - Forever] - James Patterson

NR #10: Life Swap - Jane Green

- I chose this choice because I've done 2 pictures that look like the one that I'm going to use this time. I felt like I addicted to those characters because they got a very perspective look. There are many customs that could be fit with the characteristic, the attitude of the character that I'm going to make. For this book, I'm going to make the main character, Vicky Townsley. She gave up on her marriage, her husband and even her kids. She didn't want to be marry at all because all she wanted was to be a successful woman. She worked for Poise! Magazine and she was a feature editor. Her main characteristic was hard-working because Vicky wouldn't easily give up on a point that she is focusing on. In this icon, Vicky was wearing long sleeves and white jeans because Vicky was an adult so the way she dresses would be more mature and polite. I tried to use more effects to glow the words "Successful..♥" but I think that I just failed it. I used Paint.net and Photoshop for this icon. They were the two installed-programs that I used while I was doing this blog post. ♥

NR #9: The Hunger Games {MockingJay} - Suzanne Collins

- I chose choice number 13. I just thought of the idea in my head that why can't I make a profile of Katniss (the main character in the book). I should use the skills that I usually use. Besides, I really love creating these kinds of icons/profiles. It seems kind of interesting and some are cute. But I think I don't really have that much talent to be a pro to make these kinds of arts. So.. the picture is about the scene when Katniss was getting ready for the games, the games that will lead her to her final destiny. I used many effects (glowing, sharpen,.. ) and the program that I used was Paint.net. I chose the idea to make the pictures blur behind the main picture because it would look very professional. So here is the picture that I created:

NR #8: Startling Moon - Liu Hong

A six-years-old girl named Taotao was sent to her grandparents' house to live for a while because she was being rude to her mother in front of the stage of her mother's company. When she was sent to her grandparents' house, Taotao was feeling like everything had changed ever since she had moved to a new living life. Everything was strange to her at first and for a few days, she began to feel in love with that place. When Taotao was twelve years-old, her parents arrived to Taotao's grandparents' house to pick Taotao up. They couldn't believe in their eyes that Taotao changed so fast. She wasn't a little kid anymore, but now, she had turned into a young adult, with the eyes as bright as stars, beautiful black-long hair grew behind Taotao's back. Taotao regretted to go home with her parents because she felt ashamed for them to leave her with her grandparents and plus, she had felt like this place is the place where she could call it "home". However, Taotao's grandparents told her that she has to move back to her real home which is her parents' house and she felt very upset. Taotao complained about her mother's cooking skills to her grandmother and her grandmother said, "You shouldn't say that because even though your mother's cooking skills isn't as good as mine but it's your mom's cooking skills so you need to appreciate it." Taotao was being silent for a bit and she walked back to her room. Once, she met a girl named "Lotus Blossom". Lotus Blossom's mother passed away because her mother caught cancer. She was deeply sad because her mother was the person who took care for her when she was a kid. Taotao suddenly felt that sometimes, in life, we need to love someone and we need to being grateful to that person because if someday, that person is gone, you would be very sad because you just lost them. Taotao was being a hot-tempered girl because she was treated so nicely from her parents so she became a rude girl. For my opinion, this book was extremely helpful because it told me more about the past which I was being mad at my mother and now, I suddenly feel like that was the biggest mistake that I've ever done. Read this book now because you will be surprise about the morals that you'd learned from this book ^w^.
