Critique:

Reason: It seems incredibly plain, and the colors seem a bit off. They seem like a combination of too dark and yet like the colors are too bright. It just makes for a strange effect. And the light texture is in a funny place and kind of covers up her face, which is strange.

The colours of the light textures clash with the overall brown-ness of the icon. Also, the appearance is very cookie-cutter; nothing about this icon is very *special*.

Compared to the other icons, this one is boring and bland. The light texture at the center is annoying.

Though the simplicity of the icon is nice, the dark orange colors (especially on her neck) are too strong. The light texture does not do much for the icon as well.

The icon is too dark and the scratches are distracting. It's a bit dull to be effective without any text.

It's a little bit too "textured". I don't think the white light texture thing around her mouth is good while in the background there is the same texture style but like a "line" and the scratchy texture... There had have been more done with more attention to colouring or other decoration (like brushes or text or textures which aren't in the screen/lighten/whatever mode.)
