In an attempt to organize my external HDs last year, I’ve found 7-8 T&T icon/photoshop folders sitting in various sub of sub of sub folders. Looking back at these icons, I have learned a lot about Photoshop during the past year. Believe me, this program is the best tool to test your patience and tolerance. LOL

One thing I’ve noticed about me and most of my graphics, I couldn’t leave them alone without fonts! *adds text layers* XDD I’m insane, I could spend hours choosing fonts for only one word (and ended up using the same old fonts anyway LOL), and even more hours picking the word itself! ^^”

I make T&T graphics when I’m happy. I make T&T graphics when I’m mad. I make T&T graphics when I’m fangirling.I make T&T graphics when I’m depressed like hell. I make T&T graphics whenever I have time LOL Of course, they’re not a pair of super heroes, but for real, making these icons and wallpapers has helped save my days far too many times to count. Just look at them simply make me smile and put me in a good mood.

I’m grateful for my chance to be their fan. :)

So, I’ve created this page to be a place to talk about my T&T icons/wallpapers that I’ve shared with T&T fandom, other Photoshop related works, and my random thoughts on them. I might come back and talk about my personal icons I’ve made for my LJ account later.

I’m definitely not an expert on making graphics but I always do it with my heart when it comes to Takki and Tsubasa.

They inspired me (^___^)v

[T&T] Koi Uta PV preview icons

First batch. I bet I’ll want to make more once I see the entire drama and PV. ^^

A couple of twin icons, kinda hard to make the ones from drama really matched since they’re from different scenes. But it was fun, nonetheless :)

And being me, I couldn’t help but make some crack icons too LOL

Taking a screencap of Takki was very tricky. Tono is always in a gloomy lighting. Any outdoor shot is either at night or in the rain! And for the life of me, I could not come up with a way to capture a clear picture of running!Tsu. Wing-san, you’re flying too fast! Anyone has a success mind telling me the trick? xD

[Takki] 26th Birthday Magnet Board

Creativity level is at record low during this time of the month T___T

Couldn’t really whip something else out on time so I resorted back to the magnet board. Well, good thing is now I have a pair! Maybe I can work on T&T magnet board next? LOL

BTW, my scanner is dying on me, I think it’s got overheated from having T&T on its bed again~ xD

Pretty simple idea, copying my own magnet board. And of course, I couldn’t leave Tsubasa out! ^^

Personally, I don’t think the big one works very well if you have lots of icons on your desktop. My recommendation is to use the small one and set background color to black.


1024 x 768 :: 1280 x 1024

Also, I’m trying something new this time. In case anyone wants to see my photoshop messy WIP xD I actually think this version is much cleaner, with lots more space for desktop icons.

Just something different :)

[Takki] Serene

If you think I can stay away from this picture, you don’t know me at all! XD

It’s my most favorite shot from Takki’s set of this year calendar. I’m completely in love with it. How could I not? Tono in monochrome! Tono’s abs!!!! Tono in white pants! Tono was spreading his legs wide open when wearing white pants, to be exact!!! LOL Of course, you should be used to this perverted part of my brain by now~ XD

The atmosphere was so calm and peaceful, and if you look a bit further, I’d say, lonely even. Great composition. Natural. Simple. Beautiful.

For a second, I thought he was an elf sailing off to the Undying Land. (then I screamed: OH CRAP! COME BACK TAKKI!!! XD)

Anyway, it’s pretty tricky to recreate the rest of the water. I’ve tried various techniques, but 2.5 hours later, I just gave up and threw in some layers to conceal my patchworks. LOL Also, I started off with fancy fonts and a lot more texts, but changed my mind and decided to keep it simple instead. 2 versions of the same thing as I obviously couldn’t decide on the colors. ^^

[Tsubasa] Samurai 10 variations

I wasn’t a big fan of Tsubasa’s long kakkoii hair during Samurai era but when he tied his hair up into a tiny bun like this, I squeeeeeeeeeeed my head off!! Welcome back, Tsuprincess!!!! Dear lord, he looked just like a little girl, so pretty and molestable xD Such a perfect uke! LOL

Again, I didn’t claim this picture at 10variations, but I followed their rules. Still no text, which was getting harder and harder for me, since I kept adding text layers and ended up hiding them ^^”
