Hello, dears! How is it going?
I'm realizing this is my first (icon) post of the year, though I have made several graphics for various icontests but I haven't yet posted them here: I hope I'll remember to post them asap!
This is my first entry for

monthlyinspo. Man, I love this community, it's so inspiring! But I usually don't have enough time anymore to make lots of icons for communities so it's hard I can manage to do something for this beautiful and inspiring community. I really can't explain why it's so hard to make lots of icons nowadays, I used to make even 40 icons in a day and now I can manage to finish a maximum of 5 graphics per day: it's very strange!
Anyway, going back to this challenge, it was about noir inspirations, so I decided to make not only icons inspired by noir films in techniques, but I chose pictures that reminded me of this genre, like photoshoots and screencaps from noir-ish productions. I tried my best to not make them all in chiaroscuro - it's like my favourite technique EVER - and I'm aware that some of them aren't very good, but I put all my efforts here and, as I said, some of them were really rushed because time is ticking! Anyway, hope you like them and that the overall result isn't that bad!
Enjoy!

So, hello my dears! How's it going? I hope your Christmas holidays went very well! :D
I spent a nice christmas, with

wiyllow,

lacrimadargento and other relatives! It was very warmth and pretty! I received some beautiful presents (Black Holes and Revelations, Muse delux CD from

sofia_gray, Midnight Poison by Dior from

lacrimadargento and a lovely pochette from

wiyllow) and I spent a nice time playing cards with my family.
Anyway, if you've noticed I uploaded lots of new userpics and I searched to link them to New Year's Eve. I know, I'm crazy. XD
I'm always not very able with words, so I leave you with some icons, mostly made for

free_magic_pics,

keira_lims, and some large graphics! Enjoy them! :P
