I don't know what I'm doing anymore. I think I was close to find my "style" after my last entry at 20inspirations but it seems that I fried my muse and the few skills I had left and I don't know how to make icons any more. Now ( cut )
For your first THG icon, have you tried masking out a bit of the mockingjay? I think if you got rid of some of the circle on the right side (perhaps in a slightly smudgey way) it might look cool? Maybe also inverting the borders so the top one is darker than the bottom would go better with the color scheme of the icon would help. The second one could maybe use a bit more contrast? And I think the slightly geometric look to the background doesn't go with the rest of the icon.
As for the HP one, I love love love the colors and the crop. But you're right about the sharpening on the lips, and on top of that, I think the right side is a bit blurry, so...I don't know? I think if you did another sharpen and masked away the bit over the lips and then maybe took a blur brush to the skin right above the top lip that might kind of balance out the sharpening.
