Ask the maker 2.0

[aida_rose]

Happy New Year, icon_talk!

As promised, it's time for our second round of Ask the Maker!Here you'll get the chance to ask icon makers who sign up, questions about their icons/graphics. You can ask for tutorials, guides/walk through, or simply ask a question regarding their work so the makers can compile a Q&A post, with the answers to all the questions

Well, I am not sure if there is an interest in this for my work, but here goes:

Username and where I post my work: innocent_Lexys at satine_violet
What can we request from you (tutorials, Q&A, walk through, other (specify))?: Tutorials (although I cannot guarantee that I remember everything, unless I actually do have a .psd of this icon, which might be a good chance), Q&A, walk through, anything you might be interested in.
Can we hotlink your icons?: Yes, most certainly.

Lex! ♥ How about a guide on texture-making, since you're the queen of it? :D

[innocent_lexys]

I will think about writing something up about it, Cece!
Which kind of textures are you interested in?

[mm3butterfly]

Yay, thank you! Any of them are lovely, really, but I particularly love (and abuse) those on Ida & Fairytales

[fuuurs]

IA with Fairytales! It's only my favorite batch of textures EVER, I'm very curious about it.

[innocent_lexys]

Here is the guide I have written.^.^

Great question! :D

[innocent_lexys]

Here is the guide I have written. I hope it will live up to what you guys wanted!

Favorite textures/makers (aside from yourself)?

[innocent_lexys]

Oh, interesting!
Would you like a quick answer here or a more visual "exhibition" at my community? :)

[longerthanwedo]

A visual thing would be good, if that's not too much work! :D

[fuuurs]

In the off-chance that you do have a psd of it...

[innocent_lexys]

I do have the .psd of it, yes, after all it is one of those icons with the most feedback and I quite like it myself. :) I will try to write up a tutorial, if I can extract the info from it. :)

But, I think it was witchcraft, as I see I only used one blueish-greenish light layer and then abused colour balance, curves and selective colouring.
