50 Guardian icons, episodes 1-5!

[extrapenguin]

So, the icon battle left me with the urge to make some more icons, but I didn't want to go to the next phase just yet, so I set my own mini-challenge: 10 icons per episode, starting from episode 1! Here are the icons from episodes 1 to 5, 50 in total. I made them roughly in order, and continued going with each episode until I had 10. Some of them are variants of each other, but there are multiple icons of each SID team member, Shen Wei, the Envoy, and some group/team ones, so I hope you can find something sufficiently pretty to stare at! If you want to use one, I'd be super honored; just leave a comment here.

The icons:
1-10 (episode 1)



11-20 (episode 2)



21-30 (episode 3)



31-40 (episode 4)



41-50 (episode 5)

Hee, I love the yellow ones for ep 1, and Lao Chu with the blue streaks. The "mei shi'r" ones for ep 2 as well as number 16. 31 is great, and so is 34, and the green northern lights ones, and 44 and 46.

Thanks! I'm super satisfied with how 31 turned out, and streaky things (like lao Chu and 46) are my greatest weakness. *g*
