Oh my, these are gorgeous! I love them all. 'Artist's Choice 2', 'Textless' and 'Yellow' are my favourites. Do you have a tutorial for 'Lonely'/'Hair'/'Category 2'? I really like it.

[rory_tutorgirl]

Aw thank you so much! :)

Oh actually i don't, but basically that's what i did:
-Normally color the original photo you're starting with
-Select Ashley out of the original picture with the Pen Tool (or any other method that gives you the same result of course)
-Open a new 100x100 canvas and color the background
-Copy (merged) the selection and paste it on the new background
-Resize Ash, move it around, you might need to sharpen it
-Go around Ashley's figure with a 100 soft brush of the same background color to make it blend better with the background (adjust the opacity if it comes out too much or erase a bit from her face)
-Add textures, adjust a bit the coloring, whatever you prefere and TADAN! :)

AHH! *flails*
They're all GORGEOUS.
I think "Lonely" is my favorite, but "Hair" is cute, too...I looove the ones with colored backgrounds, basically. Aww, darn it, I love them all.
Snagging a bunch.
ILY. Just sayin'.

EDIT: I got so excited I became incoherent for a spell there. XD

Aw thank you honey!!! I was very excited myself about these cause i think that's the hardest i've ever worked on icons XD

Haha ILY too!

Pfff Ashley is worthy of getting incoherent, we've been deprived too long!

Lovely work on these. :)

Great cropping & colouring. I really like 'lonely', 'grayscale' & 'hair' and the category ones are especially gorgeous.

Congrats on completing & well done!
