Hello there, I am Jess (or raiindust), and you can find my icons at just_delicious & aintafairytale.

Aw, thank you <3

Loving your use of text in these icons. They really complement the icons rather than overwhelming them, especially in #1 and #9.

Your center-cropped icons (#2-#4) read as a little boring to me; the coloring (except #3) is gorgeous, but they're easily forgettable.

I also really like the creativity in #5.

Thank you!
the coloring (except #3) is gorgeous
Can I ask what you find wrong with #3? All I've done is played with the colours of the original cap, but lots of people don't seem to enjoy it, so I'm wondering exactly why, in terms of the technique rather than the fact it's just blue.
I'll take on board what you've mentioned about the center-cropped icons though, although I'm not sure how I could have made them less boring - do you have any suggestions?

Yeah they look PHAT to me lol :D Love the coloring more than anything else. I'm so sick of the damn pink tones everywhere!! That blue one is awesome

[raiindust]

Thank you! Yes - I don't think I have the skills to work with just pink, lol! I'm glad you like the blue one, its nice to know people can look beyond a colour to appreciate an icon :)

I have nothing to say about your icons but LOVE. They are just amazing. The coloring it amazing and the use of text is brilliant.

Thank you so much ♥

[raiindust]

Thank you!
LOL, the pink texture is actually a part of the original cap - the character, who is Quinn, was dressed in a Lady Gaga costume :)

[raiindust]

I thought that might have been the case :)

[raiindust]

Your icons are really pretty! I think you improved a lot the last time! I really like your colours and your ideas!

Maybe sometimes a bit more contrast would be good like in #4 and #8 (: But they still look good!

[raiindust]

Thanks so much!
Noted with the contrast, I think sometimes I worry about making things too contrasted and then I don't actually give them enough!
