What can we request from you (tutorials, Q&A, guides etc. .PSDs are not allowed: anything really, there maybe a few that I didn't save, but I'll do my best! If you request something, I'll do my best to give you an approx eta (I will be running around the country a bit, so if it's saved in my external it may take longer >.<)

I'd love to see your process in making these sorts of amazing grungy/gritty icons! :)

[word_never_said]

Sure, I'll see what I can do...can't promise it'll be any good, but I'll give it a shot! C:

[word_never_said]

Hope this is what you had in mind! ♥

If you'll have a minute I'd love to know how you make this warm, peachy coloring (especially on their faces) :D

[word_never_said]

Sure thing! I'll see where I put those and see what I can throw together! :)

[afastmachine]

Something about how you do the hair on these icons!

[word_never_said]

I actually learned from another tutorial, I'm gonna see if I can find it. If not, I'll try and do a little something for sure! :)

[afastmachine]

Either way, you've mastered it in a way I never could quite grasp! It just looks so stunning and dimensional in those two icons I linked ♥

[word_never_said]

Thank you so much! Honestly, I'm not as good at adding different colors to it, but I love doing it. I'm sorta obsessed, lol! ANYWAY, I used the tips from the amazingly talented naive_astronaut's tutorial here, then just played & practiced a lot. If you want, I can do a full tutorial too, just let me know! And thank you, it's so nice to know someone likes them so much (particularly the Queenie icon, which is a personal fave!) :)

Oh my goodness I would have NEVER thought to stroke a path, that's awesome. Thank you for the link!
