Icon time!!

I had some other stuff I wanted to put here, but I'll save the babbling about the awesomeness of Captain America, Alphas & Suits for another post :D Just pure and shiny Icon-ness for this one ^__^

I hope you like them. ♥

Those are some great H50 icons. I took many and I so rarely do. Thanks. Also dl your textures. Thanks for those.

You're welcome and thank you very much!! ♥

Icon making is fun, but it really makes my day if someone actually uses them. :D

I hear ya. I make icons too. You feel a little giddy when someone uses them.

deedo_2313 September 7 2011, 15:18:05 UTC

Yeah, totally!! It always makes me squee a little when I see one of my icons used somewhere :D

You make icons, too? I'll have to check you out when I get home from work! (My monitor at work is kinda crappy, but then I guess they don't want me to stare at pretty art all day but actually... you know work ;)

I do. Mine are mostly at graffitigraphic. I haven't gotten heavily into technique but I'm working on that.

Your icons are gorgeous!! I loved all the different yet awesome compositions and the inspiring use of textures.
I couldn't really say much about technique, most of the time I have no idea what I'm doing & just experiment around until it looks nice :D, but your icons are already a joy to look at!

sireesanwar September 8 2011, 17:48:08 UTC

Thank you. I try. You probably know it is a continuing process of learning different techniques and trying to make your art look different as you go. That is the hardest part. I don't want it to always be the same.

You do very good an experimenting. I like to look at other artists icons and get ideas about making my own... case in point my icon. I never would have thought of laying a icon out that way... but know I might try it. Also your team icon with the split view. Very cool. I want to attempt that too.

deedo_2313 September 10 2011, 23:48:59 UTC

Yeah, it's a never ending process of finding something new to try on the icons. Sometimes when I look back at particularly successful experiments I wonder how I even did it, because I got fascinated by so many other things to try out in the meantime :)
I can't really understand how some people are content to have post after post of icons that look almost exactly the same, with the same texture/effect slapped on all of them. Yes it looks nice. It looks nice on twenty different images. But 100 or more??? Kinda boring.

I love looking at icons to get ideas for new things to try out, too. :D
Your icon does look pretty cool. I'll have to try something like this some more in the future.

I got into a rut recently and was doing a lot of similar things. Right now I'm trying to find new techniques so I can change it up a lot more.

I get that. I don't want everything being the same when I make icons or when I'm just looking for them.

Great!
