+ Nice use of space
+ the cropping is good and the placement of the picture is interresting as the use of texture.
+ Good layout and colouring.

- Not enough contrast, too dark.
- too dark
- While the text is nice, the image itself is very dark, too dark for the whole icon.
- the part with David is a bit too dark
- While I love the fade in, Ten himself is to dark, and the dark yellow of his skin makes him look washed out, and the icon as a whole is oversharpened.
- The icon is too dark.
- The picture is really too dark. There is too few contrast. But the text is cool.
- The coloring makes it very hard to see the subject
+ love the style. The text is perfect.
+ Awesome font!
03. negative: 1 | positive: 1
- The light texture is distracting, and the text is too pixelated, while being illegible.

- the lighting texture doesn't fit the icon well
- the icon is too sharpened
- the neon bubble texture looks "cheap" and does not fit the overall quality of the icon
- The black pixel border around the icon is not nice, and the light textures does not compliment the icon.
- the light texture distracts from the rest of the icon
- The coloured circles do not suit the icon.
+ love the black & white/rainbow contrast
11. negative: 6 | positive: 2
- too dim, and the smudging is quite fragmented/haphazard.
- The icon is too blurry
- the textures covering David are distracting
- The icon is too dark.
- There is too many brushes on this icon. The visage is too hide. The colors are too reddish.
- The shadows in the image are too red.
+ Lovely colouring and nice use of textures, while I love the muted tiny text beside him.
+ This is just beautiful. The text is so nicely rotated and the colours are lovely and I just don't know what to say!

- It's been under-contrasted.
14. negative: 3 | positive: 0
- The text is not very readable
- image looks pixelated
- The light grey clashes against the bright blue, the face looks smudged and the text looks pixelated.
15. negative: 2 | positive: 0
- The black text clashes with the rest of the icon, because black is not prominent in any other part of the icon.
- icon looks over sharpened
16. negative: 3 | positive: 1
- The image is seriously yellow and overpowers the icon
- The yellow-ish coloring is unflattering and the crop is uncomfortable
- The cropping is good but the image is too yellow and red and a little bit too dark and the placement of the text is not the wiser
+ The crop is interesting and the coloring is pretty, if a bit too yellow.
