i really envy your skill with manga coloring, ngl! and you have a really nice cropping sense.

[garrus]

Your coloring just gets better and better and better. The first row of icons here is AMAZING but that Darth Vader one is something else, too. sdlkfjkdslfj you've clearly been stocking up on that Rasputin juice. ;D

Well you already know how I feel about your icons bb ♥ JDKASJDKADJKAD Honestly, that 3rd icon has amazing manga colouring skills and the colours just fit so nicely together.
P.S. You have improve like a ninja with greased lightning skills. Oh yeah. Seriously though, your icons just keep getting better and better each time.
The only concrit I have to just to work a bit more on the movie icons :)

EDIT: I loved your icons before, but your colouring and cropping and text usage has gotten just so wonderful. And your use of negative space is so impressive ♥

[scrawled]

do you have a process or tutorial on how you color manga? it's just so GOOD.

[radarsparks]

just a couple really old tutorials T_T /is lazy

Your icons blow me away. Your cropping is fantasic, as is you colouring. x3 And the choices of images you use are so unique and often hilarious. OMNOMNOM.

edit - #2 + #3 = ♥

Your manga colouring makes me want to lick my screen.

I love how your crops look unique without looking LOLWTF like a lot of people end up doing when they try for creative crops. They're unique, but they're still really well-composed.

Your icons are too rainbow you need to tone it down :| BUT UH

I still really love when you do warm colors |D but the purples and blues lately are really pretty +_+

[radarsparks]

i see you're not a fan of da skittles...

[zusammengefangt]

I love your manga colouring ♥ It's so simple and yet makes the icon come to life.

[pamkips]

Your icons are made of win~

[monochroma]

I think other than your croppings being a little bit boring, I love the way you present your graphics - it's simple, non-obstructive, and beautifully coloured.

ALSO MONSTERS INC ICON ILU SANTABB.

fffff I am so darn jealous of your manga coloring style. They're nicely toned-down and have a very soft look to them. Very refreshing to see when lots of other people focus more on making very bright looking manga icons, which I don't mind at all, but it's nice to see the other side of the spectrum, especially when it's done so damn well.

Your manga colouring has seriously improved a lot, and your style is easily recognizable. I also love the panels/images you choose to icon.

I think there is still room for improvement for colours though, as in, experience more with cold colours? xD Otherwise, they are awesome ♥♥♥
