So I'm happy to present to you my five favourite Darla icons of 2005. These are all single character icons, because otherwise the posts would have grown exponentially with various groups *g* Listed alphabetically by icon-maker.

brokengirl_madebycanadiangirl_86

"Broken Girl" made by [livejournal.com profile] canadiangirl_86. Rating: All Quintessentially capturing those moments in AtS Season 2 when Darla was at her most poignant, at her weakest. It's actually extremely difficult to make Darla look damaged, broken or in any way less than powerful. I think this icon does a fascinating job of that, and I love the split and the interesting use of colours. Complete post found here.

sisforsire_madebycrazedxinsanity

"S is for Sire" made by [livejournal.com profile] crazedxinsanity. Rating: All. Part of a post of icons related to Becoming I and II and using the alphabet as the base, I really like the idea of this icon. The framing and the softness of it, belies what Darla really is. Complete post here.

darlaha8ie_madebyearth_vexer

"Ha Ha Ha" made by [livejournal.com profile] earth_vexer. Rating: All. This is Darla at her wicked best. The text is so simple yet so effective and I love the colour used on this too. Complete post found here.

Darla-disguise-kathyh

"Darla Disguise" made by [livejournal.com profile] kathyh. Rating: All. I think it's rare for an icon with four smaller images to appear so clear and so eye-catching. And what's more four wonderful images of different Darla guises. Lovely colour use too. Complete post here.

Darla_madebyletsey_x

"Darla" made by [livejournal.com profile] letsey_x Rating: All. I love the framing in this, you can imagine that Darla is just about to lead you away to some kind of debauched death. The scrolls around the bottom make a nice effect too. Complete post here.
