zombie2279: Incredibly simple, I'd advise complete reworking from a more 3D-ish perspective, if not here are the improvements you'll have to make:

Increase the quality of the sword by making it slightly larger and adding more details, maybe making those lines within the blade more visible and adding a more metallish outlook afterwards with employing correct highlights. That ought to make the blade much more realistic and if the object is okay, the general level of detail is drastically increased.

About the rest: The oval-shaped thing is rather distorted and pixelated, do something with it. You should make it thicker and maybe place it a bit more downwards. If you make it thicker, you should add some flashy stars/gems onto it to pimp the level of details. The wings would look quite okay, when considering the shape, but they need more correct levels and variations of shading, preferably more realistic detalis added.

zombie2279: Rejected until updated.

Used this as my inspiration!

Make the background black, create a darkblue up to lightblue glow and make some glamour in the background. Additionally, remove the whole sword, just show the upper part, and you will have an awesome icon.

Hehe, thanks, let me see what i can do about this...

The circle needs a stronger line

Wow, that was a fast reply
So go for it

Im gonna update right now^^

Edit: Updated*

Alot better now.
Still the glow is missing.

A darkblue up to lightblue glow (its changing smoothly) would be good. Also, the Sword could need some light (make some lightning effects on it, would be cool).

Alright lets work at it^^

as i said, make the Circle bolder

Okay, ill do it when i come back

hmm. .good for glow i think. .nice icon. .dont sharpen it much. .more shading.

overall nice!
4/5

Thanks for the tips, but im gonna be away the whole day.
