Pyramidhe@d: this more reminds me of a sea slug than a sword. its hard to tell that the jagged edges are saw-like edges. make sure all the points end with a sharp crisp poitn, not a blobby blunt end
i guess the bg is acceptable but i am sure you could better it

like i said. i see you changed it but its not change for the better. still look like little tentacle legs

This looks like a chainsword . Not bad but lines should be more straight.

Altough it seems a bit pixelated i give it a 4/5. When you convert to .blp, make the quality 99% and see if it looks better.

how can i change the quality when converting?

EDIT: what do u use to convert? i use Wacraft 3 Extractor II but idk if its good

I use photoshop to convert.

i dont have photoshop...

and photoshop can convert to BLP???

cuz the problem isnt to make it in TGA but to convert the TGA file to a BLP file... cuz my icons are loosing quality when they are in BLP.. idk why

Looks quite nice.

Quite good icon. 4/5

The sword looks good though you can make a better background.

What DO you use kola?

I like this one. But still some changes are needed to be done. The shading on the sword don't make it look flat, but round! Try to make the shading like a sword. Normally, a sword will have a darker edge and a lighter edge OR a groove in the middle of the sword. But it looks like you put shading along both sides, making it look like a pipe with spikes rather than a sword.

The runes along the sword don't look attached to the sword. Try shading along the edges of the runes to give the impression that the are embedded into the sword. The spikes are cool. but right now they look like thorns Try to shape them out like deadly spikes. and the shading is the same as the sword, they look round instead of flat.

The BG is good but just try to separate it from the sword because its looking like its blending in too much with the sword.

2/5
