//Stuck in d e c em b e r

Hey guys, I'm Valkyria, while I can't draw, I've become somewhat experienced with making icons, in various sizes. Enjoy, CnC, etc.

Rules:

∞ Don't steal
∞Ask before Using
∞ Give credit if I allow you to use an icon

I love your vibrant colors! My favorites would have to be the Gliscor, Elesa, Suicune, and Ke$ha. As for any crit... The subtext on the DPPt legend icons isn't necessary. Icons shouldn't have too many words on them, even if applied in a small font size. The icon of the girl with the red hair is a little... unnatural because her hair is too red-purple. You should go for a warm palette when your subject is a young girl. So UMMM. Keep it up! You're amazing. :3

As this isn't exactly a shop, I've moved it to the main Artist's Alcove forum.

This is a very nice round-up of graphics! You have a good, steady style; it's always good when you can tell the same person did all the graphics, because it means you have a recognizable style.

The colors are nicely saturated and the effects are very good! :P My fave has to be Elesa - she looks dashing.

However I am going to agree with this:

The text looks a bit broken-up. Those icons of the legends are amazing and well-rounded, they have a good palette and are pleasant to see, I would just take away the text :3

Ah thanks, I kind of just copied TB in deciding where to post this.

Thank you, Aori! And yeah, I really liked the Elesa stock. In hindsight, I probably wouldn't have used the subtext, but I've seen others pull it off so well, I decided to give it a try.

I totally get you! When I used to make a lot of icons, I also tried the subtext thingy and I never got it right! xD what I found that looks cute somethings is small text, like, impossible to read text, above a bigger text.
But, random comment aside, I repeat - awesome graphics! :3 you should post more! I can't wait to see!

Wow. You are an amazingly talented artist. It's all so colourful and pretty. I am in love.

Thank you so much!

Also, to keep this thread alive, here's some of the other icons I've made:

I love the one with Roark. It's so cute. Great job.

Sorry for the double post, but could I use the Jirachi icon?

so pretty! good job <3
