I'll leave 4/5 for 3 of your gem icon, Ruby, Amethyst and Topaz.

But the comment will be the same :
Why don't they all have the same assets ? Some have BTN and PAS while other will get BTN and ACT for exemple... Could you make that they all have the same ? Available icon shouldn't make one decide the gem he wants.

Because 13+ years ago Hive did not have the automatic icon borderizerand and I made these icons 'by hand' so to say. The person that asked me to make the models and icons only needed BTN and PAS icons.
On a personal note I don't find having an icon in all variations (especially those UI ones) very useful.

I hope you understand now and don't set your rating and assessment of my work on something you don't know or understand.

And I'm glad you made them, because they have use to me.
As you said, 13+ years it did the tools to make the alternate version did not existed, so 13+ years ago, that would had been a 5/5.

But as of today and my point of view, the assets posted as it is, doesn't feel complete, not to diminish your works, especially if it was all drawn by hands.

As said in my first comment, BTN / PAS / ACT are to me the base icon to put in an assets. I understand that back then you had plenty of icon, 10+ gems and that making not requested icon type was a waste of time. But as of today, my statement won't change.

Have a great day.
Looking forward to your other works when I'll look for something.

(I don't know if it's a bug from Hive but you should take a look at the icons, some seems mislabelled, here in the pic, it's labelled ATC instead of PAS)
