In the spirit of creativity, I procrastinated from my Dickpa/Malty first-time fic to make some Weird Biggles icons, with a few Steeley ones I made months ago thrown in. And one from Breaks the Silence, which reminds me that I need to finish editing the photo scans from the picture book... my fannish energy is finally restored and it feels SO good.

#1 is misc planes, #2-#8 are from Charter PIlot, #9 + #10 are Hits the Trail, ##11-13 Steeley and #14 Breaks the Silence. Feel free to use widely and at will, I always get a little thrill when I see one of my icons out in the wild!!

Behold! The icons!

Requests included #1 (serious Bertie for chanter1944 ), #3 (a Looks Back quote for philomytha ) and #8/#10 (biplanes for sheron ). I couldn't quite figure out a good angle for the illustration ref from sholio , so in penance we have #6 (EvS!)

#5 is a reference to Bertie's catchphrase, which I didn't notice until it was pointed out in the comments of Philomytha's latest fic. The other icons are from various illustrations: #2/#10 are from (I believe) The Camels Are Coming, #4/#7 are from the Eagle run of Biggles in the Gobi, and #8 is from the spine of the Flies East first edition. The exception is #9, which is a photo I took recently of the parcel containing my great-grandfather's medals from WW2. It seemed apt!

Today was the last day of the school year. In celebration at work we watched half of Anastasia and half of The Incredibles (the kids were too rowdy for a whole film). At home to celebrate I screamed into the coatrack for a bit then sat down and edited a crop of Biggles icons (and one Gimlet). Feel free to use these as you see fit.
