This week, we'll do an
icon technique challenge. Instead of giving you a topic or images, you may use ANY
Hunger Games related image you want (book covers, movie posters, film screencaps, promos) to create an icon
with negative space.
The majority of the icon must have
blank/empty/non-occupied space away from the subject of the icon. Some examples:

harmony033NOTE: Your negative space can be at any point or angle in the icon - as long as it is present, it's fine! All the examples just happen to have space above the subject - but it can be anywhere.
We've had a question regarding text in negative space. I'm inclined to say no text in the negative space, but I'll allow it as long as it does not overpower the subject in the image. The point is to crop and manipulate images creatively, but I won't prohibit text! If you have a question, just leave a comment or message the mod!
Make sense? If you need some help, just message the mod! And don't forget about all the great links on the sidebar to help with images.
RULES:- You may enter
up to 4 (four) icons for this challenge.
- Only members may enter.
- The same cap may be used more than once provided the crop is significantly different.
