Post subject:  COMPLETED SilverRose vs. ~Goldleaf~ 2 ::Favorite Bands::

Goldleaf and I enjoyed our last battle so much that we decided to have another one! We came up with five bands that we both like and decided to make two volleys for each band. We can use whatever song we want to for each band, and I'm assuming we can do either banners or blends. :-D

<center>1. [s]Enya[/s]
2. [s]Evanescence[/s]
3. [s]Within Temptation[/s]
4. [s]Snow Patrol[/s]
5. [s]Avril Lavigne[/s]</center>

Let the battle begin! Goldie, you can go first. :-D

Hooray! Okay, here are my Enya volleys.
This first one contains a lyric from "May It Be", and it's a Goldomir banner if you hadn't guessed already!

Image

And this second one has a lyric from "Book of Days". I just used a picture of Enya herself then edited away!

Very pretty! :-D

I used two songs I didn't know very well, and found out that I love them! :)

Evening Falls: Enya

^I really like this one.

If I Could Be Where You Are: Enya

^I don't exactly like this one, but I don't feel like messing with it anymore. :-P

Those are really pretty!
Okay, here are my Evanescence volleys...

This first one is using the song "Going Under"! I thought it kind of suited Aragorn and Eowyn.

Image

Image

The second volley is using "Taking over Me". I've used two pictures by Waterhouse, this brilliant pre-Raphaelite artist.

Those are two of my favorite songs! :-D Beautiful volleys. I really like the blue texture on the Taking Over Me set.

Lithium: Evanescence

Image

Image
^Hey, you knew I was going to have to bring Jack and Elizabeth in here somehow. :-P

Breathe No More: Evanescence

Image

Image
^I chose Pride and Prejudice because in this scene, she actually is looking in a mirror. :)

Thank you!
Really beautiful volleys, Silvery! :)

Now here are my Within Temptation volleys... The first one is an Aragorn and Eowyn sig set, using the song "Angels", one of my favourites. :)

Image

Image

Right, the next one is an Aragorn and Arwen volley (I know, more LOTR, but I can't resist :lol: ), using "The Heart of Everything".

Your new banners (including your siggy) are so pretty! You know I'm a fan of the rainbow color scheme. :-D

Memories: Within Temptation

Image

^I've determined that this kind of blend is my absolute favorite to make. :yes:

The Swan Song: Within Temptation

Thank you!!! :)
Those blends are really really pretty. And "Memories" is one of my favourite Within Temptation songs! I've not heard "The Swan Song" before though... perhaps I shall have to Youtube it. *Muses*

Anyyywayyy! Here are my Snow Patrol volleys. This first one is another Goldomir banner - always lots of angsting when they're involved ;) - using the song "Chasing Cars".

Image

This next volley is another Aragorn and Arwen banner, using the scene when he's telling her they can't be together in Rivendell. I'm using the song "Open your Eyes", so in a way it's kind of from Arwen's perspective.

Very pretty! I love the blending and the colors. I really like seeing how your style is developing. :yes: Mine just changes between 2-3 styles. lol

I'm going to have to put this on hold for a few days, but I'll post my next volleys whenever I can. :-D

Hey nice work guys! Some really good work here. :)

I especially like your very first banner goldleaf. :) It's very pretty.

Thanks, Jax! :-D

Ok, I'm back home and can now use Photoshop. w00t!

You Could Be Happy: Snow Patrol

Image

Image
^I thought this song suited A/E very well. :)

The Finish Line: Snow Patrol

Image
^If you can't tell what this says, the line is: "Bluest seas, running to them"

Thank you, Jax and Enno!

Here are my last volleys... This one is an Eowyn and Faramir banner using the song "Keep Holding on".

Image

The next one is based around a LOTR OC pair of Nerissa's and mine :) Her character's the moody guy, he's called Aravir, and he's hopelessly in love with Goldleaf, my character (obviously :lol: ). But she still loves Boromir. Cue a LOT of angsting. I've used the song "Together".

Image

And that's that! :) Silvery, amazing volleys as usual. I hope I was a worthy opponent :lol: Seriously, your graphics rock ^_^

Thanks so much, sis! :)

Those banners are beautiful! What a great way to end our battle. :-D You're definitely a worthy opponent, and thank you so very much for the compliment. :hug:

I Will Be: Avril Lavigne

Image

Image
^I used one of my favorite Finding Neverland scenes for this one.

One of Those Girls: Avril Lavigne

Image

Image
^This fits so well for Jack/Elizabeth, it's like the song was written for them. :-D

This battle has been amazing. Thanks so much for having it with me, Goldie! :hug:
