Pyramidhe@d: great shadings and good colour. and very creative, cool looking helmet

[Zombie.: HR'd.]

I like it the idea is good 4/5 +rep

Big version without background.

I think it looks awsome See nothing particular that would need to change.

Where are you from then?

Yeah, maybe its better without background. Good work!

same =P

Can't tell what the dragon crest thingy is except from the large one : /

And Misha, what the fuck gives you the right to tell people they don't have a clue about icons? Don't see YOU having any approved 2D resources.

Ok, back on-topic. To me, the helm doesn't look very viking-ish. The dragon ornament thingies look more oriental. Or at least that's what I think.
Else than that, it's brilliant
Congratulations with becoming a moderator, by the way.

I like the helmet, but not the metal junk strapped to it.

I dislike dragon a bit. Some shades looks kinda "why they are theare?"
but VERY nice item :]
If not dragon, it would like some 2300 Stealth helmet

EDIT: not vikingish at all.

The shape may not be vikingish, but the theme is. The dragon is a viking dragon, like on the ships, and the small details are vikingish. The bronze is too.

Maybe a black outline instead of grey would be better. However, the icon looks great!

To be honest, I really do think it looks more like a mix between an oriental dragon and a chicken, but like I said, that's my opinion.
And don't get me wrong... It's still an awesome icon

Especially when looking at the large version I don't get where you placed the source of light, therefore the shading and highlighting seems partly contrary to me. However, the actual outcome looks decent.

Well if you can't see it on the icon, try to check the big version again. I don't make the actual light source ON the icon, which many people doesn't, but I think it is quite obvious on the big one, that the light source is comming from the upper right corner.

Irrelevant. No one will be using the large image as an icon.

Your comment is irrelevant, since it wasn't towards you. I was explaining where he could see it, if he couldn't see it on the icon.

Ah, well.. I didn't try to find the source of light ON the icon, fyi. The thingy attached to the left of the helmet confused me. At first sight (and on the icon) it seems like it's just parallel to the helmet, but due to the highlights you might intended to make it angled? If you want me to I can mark the areas I'm talking about, but I don't have time for that right now, sorry.
