2001: A Space Odyssey Icons - By Mischa McLachlan

14 icons Based on the 1968 Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer film "2001: A Space Odyssey".


After completing the set of Fight Club icons, i got lots of great feedback from
people
suggesting movie ideas.  One of the more reoccurring films was 2001: A Space
Odyssey.  A film which i had really loved, and up front i thought there would be
lots of really interesting ideas for icons.  However after starting the set, i
realised a lot of the spaceships and items i planned to make were actually very
difficult to render within the boundaries of a square icon shape.

For Example, I have not included an icon of the Monolith, or of the Discovery
spaceship.  I attempted numerous versions and wasn't satisfied with the results
i achieved.

Another problem i found was trying to replicate the sterile and clean look found
in the movie.  It meant my Photoshop airbrushing and such had to be spot on,
which meant things took a lot longer than i anticipated.

However, there is a few good icons in this set, i hope you will enjoy them!
