Ask the maker 2.0

Happy New Year, icon_talk!

As promised, it's time for our second round of Ask the Maker!Here you'll get the chance to ask icon makers who sign up, questions about their icons/graphics. You can ask for tutorials, guides/walk through, or simply ask a question regarding their work so the makers can compile a Q&A post, with the answers to all the questions

Omgosh your icons *____* following your new comm right away! :D

SO something I noticed RIGHT off the bat is your contrast use. IT'S DROOL WORTHY! Please tell me more about that, what are you partial towards: curves or levels or softlight layers or what! Everything is just so rich and crisp and aldgkhalgka, so just anything you have to say about that topic!

Also I am most certainly seconding a tutorial/walk through of

!

Omg, thank you! Looks like I'm following your comm now as well! :D

So, contrast... to be honest, I don't know the answer right away myself (lol, what kind of icon maker does that make me??), but I'll definitely try and analyze what it is that I'm doing there and will hopefully be able to write something about it soonish. :)

That icon has a place on my to-do list already - it might take a little while to write it down, but I'll get to it as soon as I can. :)

So, here's the link: Color & Contrast
(beware, this has gotten reeeeeeally long.. you don't have to read all of it, obviously - I just hope it gives some insight into what you actually wanted to know ;))
