November 1999          (Revision November 2010)

This volume began with me making a lot of one-time characters that I hadn't gotten to yet, and I made a lot of the kids I hadn't gotten to yet. I also made unusual icons of family members.

Honing my iconing skills is a constant quest and I am pleased to offer ever-better icons to fans these days.

Some notes on The Simpson Icons, Volume 10 icons....
• FIENDISH MARGE, BART, LISA & MAGGIE--Remember the first-season episode where the Simpsons go to a social event at Burns' estate, and the day ends up badly and Homer looks at the pre-Flanders family driving off with halos while his own family looks rather devilish? Yep, that's where these icons come from! It took me a long time to try making these icons, because they had a lot of detail (fang teeth and flaming hair) and I wasn't sure if I could make the icons look good enough. To my pleasant surprise, the iconing was easy and looks nice, and the foursome goes together quite well.

• HOMER'S BVDs--I couldn't pass up the opportunity to make Homer's underwear! People have written in and requested more inanimate objects from time to time, and if they're small enough and not too difficult to put in the pertinent details (and I can find a picture of the object), I'll icon it. So, do you have an object that you want iconed? Send me a pic and a request.

• HOUSE OF EVIL SHOPKEEPER--I found this character had skin that was so light, I couldn't use my regular outline of black. So I lightened it to a medium blue, and it worked out just fine. That's why that character's skin looks so much lighter than normal icons; I wanted to preserve the unnatural skin tone he had in the Halloween episode.

• 2 BARNEY ICONS--I've had some people write in with only a few words: "More Barney icons!" So here's 2 more of him. I've already made 2 of him belching, and 2 of him as the Plow King. I thought I'd go with 2 new personas:  Barney as a slick businessman during the "Flaming Moe" episode, and Barney as an astronaut trainee, riding in the vertigo machine (for lack of a better name).

• BART FALLING, MISCHIEVOUS BART, STARTLED BART MONSTER--Three of my favorite Bart icons. These 3 have smaller proportions and more shading. These 3 icons are examples of what I'm shooting for, a small work of art that is in the spirit of the Simpsons.

• HOMER SUCKING ON A BEER--Another highlight trick with this icon; when you click on Homer, you can see him going, "Mmmmm..." as he drinks his beer (which is sitting on his belly).

• LITTLE SHOP OF HOMERS--I happen to like the musical "Little Shop of Horrors;" it's got lively music and a funny plot, definitely one of the best collaborations of Menken and Ashman. When it was spoofed in Bongo Comics, I knew I had to icon Homer/Audrey. I acquired a poster of the promo art and the rest is history.

• HOMER'S VACUUMED EYE--Remember when Lisa Kudrow voiced Alex Whitney, the hip new student in Lisa's class? Homer pulled Bart out of school to begin his grand scheme of becoming rich by collecting grease. Near the end, Homer wants to make one last big grease run, and goes to the school to rob its kitchen of the tons of grease. He has a huge vacuum hose with him, and looks into it to check if it's running....

• NUMBER ONE (2-part icon)--I've had many requests to do this character, but I knew that I'd need to make the huge hat for the icon to be recognizable. So I decided to make it a 2-part icon. However, I've made the bottom icon so that Number One's face is still recognizable by itself, in case anyone wants to use only one icon.

• APU 2--Someone suggested that I make a better icon of Apu, as my first icon was a very early one, and looks much more "primitive" than my more recent icons.

• MATT GROENING 2--I made an icon of Matt Groening when a caricature was shown of him on the 138th Spectacular show, and I decided it was time to make an icon that actually resembled him. Matt, here's your tribute! Thanks for a wonderful show and many years of happy entertainment!

• JIMBO JONES 2--This seems to be a volume of 2s! Someone wrote in and requested a better icon of Jimbo, so I obliged.  Which proves that I read email and respond to it.

• DR. ZAIUS, HIS NURSE AND TROY MCCLURE IN THE APES MUSICAL--These 3 icons were lots of fun to do. I still hum the Dr. Zaius tune at times. I couldn't go another volume without doing honor to that creation.

• NEIGHBORHOOD KIDS--I haven't included this folder for a couple of volumes, so I figured it was time to feature it again. I'm catching up on kids that have been on the show in the past few years.

*FAMILY GUY--Someone requested that I make a Stewie icon, so I decided to make the entire family. I wanted to see what I could do with a different cartoon series and a different drawing style. The Family Guy cast was quite difficult, because the dimensions of their face are closer to normal, without the overly large eyes that make iconing on this small scale easier.
