Oh no hahaha all the icons on my OP were requests and were requested that way hahaha XD A lot of people like borders on their icons so that's why hahaha XD Oh gosh!! Thanks for pointing that out!!! ; __ ; I did erase part of the sharpening when I sharpened it, but now that I see it, I should turn down the opacity even more. I was making this at 4am bwuahahaha! Thanks for point that out again! XD
Ohhh thanks for the advice! I'll definitely experiment with it on my next gfx! <:
Also here's the icon a lot less sharpened, with and without a border hahaha XD
Thank you so much again!! Your advice is always supremely helpful! > v<
OH then yeah, you can't really argue with the customer
But it's no problem, the same thing happened to me too actually! In the past, when I looked at my graphics after making them, I realized that a lot were too sharp so now I just try to sharpen things as little as possible, lol. It turns out less is more when it comes to sharpening, unless a Gaussian Blur was applied to the image like three times or something.
I love the after version of the icon! Looks great ;-]
Ah, and your latest graphics are amazing too. The banner you did for Keitara's shop is super stunning in particular. I want to ask, did you use a lot of brushwork in that one? Because it's got this dreamy vibe going on and I'm pretty curious as to how you achieved that! My guess is a bunch of textures combined with stuff like cloud brushes or something similar. Nevertheless, the coloring's great and so is the text!
And speaking of text, the text in the Umbreon tag is lovely as well. The reflection effect worked out great! :-]

Oh gosh definitely ahahaha!~ It's always when you look in the past where you find faults ahahah but that just shows that you are improving more and more as you find out your own faults/weaknesses B]
Thank you so much!! I really am proud with that icon as well ahahaha~
Ahhh thank you!!! I tend to do so much better when I get to choose the render compared to when I'm given one ahaha (unless it's a really good render I could work with, but those chances are slim ahaha) Also, surprisingly enough, I didn't need to use any brushwork bwuahaha!~ I really loved how it turned out dreamy since it's for her art shop, I thought it should give you this dreamy feeling/colorful/artlike feel ahahaha (I'm glad you felt the dreamy vibe from it!) I actually only used 3 textures to achieve that! I just overlapped them and put them on screen then erased areas I didn't want the textures in!~
Omg thank you so much!~ Hahaha I actually remembered that I used to love doing those reflection texts and I thought it would definitely work well with that tag ahahaha
Ahhh thank you so much for the compliment!! ;//v//; I still have so much to learn!! >/v//< You are improving as well!! I'm loving your recent sig!! Great job! c:
Current entry for SOTW!~ >//v//< I'll probably change it since I'm planning on making a few more vertical gfx! <3 This reminds me of my days in crunchyroll ;//v/;
Also some simple typography gfx I made for peoyne and myself! >//v/<

Icon for Patypus! c:
o my gosh that one is very good!
Hahaha thank you!! >//v/<
YAAYYY!!! NO PROBLEM AT ALL!! HAHA XD I'm so happy you love it!!!! <3
Just joined Flight Rising and made myself a tag! >//v/< Too bad max dimensions are 500 x 100 ; v; So I made it 400 x 100 haha <3
WHOA Flight Rising, huh? I have siblings who are obsessed with that website. I don't really see the appeal in it myself, but I'm sure that it can be addicting for people that are into dragons haha.
Anyway, I like how the background matches with the dragon. It's very well done, and so is the text!
Icon for Patypus! c:
Finished icon for neester14! c:
I really like the lighting effects you put on these icons! Now, I'm curious as to what color you think you work with the best. Because honestly, you're great with blue, so is it due to bias? Lmao.
This time around I don't have that much C+C to provide, buuut I would suggest adding some variation to your color schemes. A monocolor icon is great, but sometimes it's easy to get carried away with those. Try adding backgrounds that are of an opposite color, for example. This usually makes the icon pop out even more, especially if the two colors contrast with each other, and ultimately makes the graphic more interesting :-]
Ahahhahaa thank you so much!!! And yeah FR is actually pretty fun!!!! I'm looking forward to learning more about it XD The dragons are so cute on here!!! (Some of them LOL) XD
OH As for the blue HAHA for FR the dragon used is a gift from a close friend of mine, so that's why I chose that dragon (and since it's blue I wanted to use blue HAHA <3 ) As for the patypus icon, I was going to do brown, but then when the requester said they wanted it to somewhat match their icon if possible, I ended up doing blue (since their sig is a darkish blue color) and then I remembered that a Platypus lives in water, so that's where the beach bg idea came from HAHAHA XD
As for snorlax I went with blue since I was trying out some textures and the texture was blue LOLOL So yeah ended up with blue again ahahahahahaha!~
(But then again my favorite color IS blue LOOOOOOL )
