Agent, Husband, Friend - 20+ icons of Peter Burke for character20n20

[sandy79]

To be honest, Peter Burke had to grow on me. But he did it quite fast, captured my attention from the second viewing of the first season on. You ask why? Peter Burke is, compared to your regular FBI agent, the complete opposite of the cliché. Many LEO's (law enforcement officers) on the various TV shows are grumpy, have marriage problems (or suffer from a divorce), can't really work with their team mates, among other things. Peter Burke, on the other hand, loves his job, is a teamplayer all the way, has a steady marriage with an awesome woman. And on top of that, he forms a relationship to Neal that's oscilating between friends, brothers, father-son and everything else between. This batch was made for Round 80 at character20n20. Enjoy!

Awwwwwwww, Peter ♥ Well, in my mind our WC boys always come as a set, so my love is evenly distributed between Peter and Neal :P (and sometimes they distribute it between themselves, lol) And these are glorious ♥ He has soooo many delightful expressions :D I think my fav is the heat one - explosive \o/ Love it :D

thank you, and they are so glorious because of your glorious screencaps! *hugs*

oh my favorite man <3 Lots of great icons!! Hard to pick, but I think my favorite is the b/w/color one. Love the effect there.

And I love what you said. I totally agree with you and I too love that he's not your typical TV cop. So much love for the man <3 <3

thank you! Yeah, that description is exactly how I feel about Peter; part of it was inspired by one of the first reviews I read about the show where the writer pointed that out as well (but in less words than I did XD)

That was also my first point of a (rather long) little meta I wrote on Peter a long tome ago ;)

I remember that article! That was among the very first ones - so wonderful written!

[aragarna.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :)

Your pastel set is very pretty, I really like your use on light on the 3rd one and color on the 4th one in that set. Great work!

[sandy79.livejournal.com]

thank you! Light and color on the two mentioned were more or less pre-set by the guys and gals of the White Collar crew, I only enhanced what was already there.

I love Peter so much! And I miss him as much as I miss Neal. Wonderful batch. My favorites from this set are Cat 3 & 4 and BW on Color.

thank you!

Suit :D
Lovely batch! I really like B&W On Colour, and his expression in Cat5 is priceless!

[sandy79.livejournal.com]

thank you! Cat 5 is from "Withdrawal", just as he and Neal get mocked by Edward Walker (and an alarm clock)

The colouring in sitting and AC4 and AC5 in particular looks so great- the contrast also really adds to the intensity of the colouring and makes it stand out.

[sandy79.livejournal.com]

aww, thank you!! *hugs*

Awwww, I love Tim DeKay! It's so nice to see a whole Peter set. I really like the BW on color (I thought it was going to be the geometric one :D), the Dye Job is hilarious, and the whole AC set is beautiful.

Good job!

[sandy79.livejournal.com]

thank you! Yeah, choosing the color for the dye job was easy - between Neal, their cases and everything, Peter is bound to get grey hair sooner than later XD And "bw on color" was initially planned to be the geometric one, but then I saw the effect.
