Bug Buff

29/3 : Updated, Hope you like it. Keeping the old one because I try to believe someone may find it useful.

Greatly inspired from Sin'dorei's xesy Seduction , thanks Sin.

Feedback and credits are appreciated.

Bug Buff (Icon)

Butterfly Power (Icon)

hmmm i'm not too sure about my stance on this icon.

it's easy to tell what it is, and could be useful, but i feel it's overly simplistic. a symmetric silhouette atop a background that looks to be made from some kind of filter. it just looks too 2d and lacking in detail compared to other icons. minimal effort was made to ensure the background is fitting to the bug as well.

i'd like to hear @Sin'dorei300's thoughts on this.

I have actually tried to make a better effect, but they looks bad because i'm not good enough.
If i have a better idea in the future perhaps I will make a change.
For now i'll gladly receive a 2/5 lacking or we can just move it to substandard section.

I agree. Looks way too flat and simple.
I know you can do better than that, you can turn it in something more interesting with a bit of effort.

i refuse! moving it to awaiting update to nudge you to improve it :p this icon is not a lost cause. look at the phase shift ability for inspiration on a number of things you could do.

very good icon, definitely a 5/5, would likely use this for a haste type spell if I was making a map
