» Final thoughts?
*There are tons of icons from battles at theiconquest I didn't post her.
*I need to figure out if I want to keep a comm or not.
* I started iconing at the end of 2012 and I think I did a huge improvement, I learned how to use photoshop this year and I managed to do complex icons and even win one or two icon challenges.
For 2014
* Learn more techniques and continue to improve my overall iconing. I want to be more consistent.
*Do more challenges and not be offended in lims types, because I seem to have a very weird taste and people just like to tell my icons suck, almost every time.
* Do more icons and better. Quantity and Quality.
* Text and Blending are still huge difficulties of mine, so I'll continue to work on it.
*Maybe a elite comm or a apply type of comm? I want to improve more before trying, but who knows?
