enjoy: Can you define it more? If you give it a hard shading at the edge, and then around it, you add a really thing light blue line that blends outward, but really thin! I would make an example for you, but I don't have photoshop on this computer. Bummer. It actually already looks like it is lighter around the hand, but a bit more.
I guess what I am asking is sharpen it up and up the saturation a bit!

enjoy: A shame that you didn't improve this. It could have been great. No changes made, but might be useful.

 

[_lycan]

5/5 epic! :d

 

[morbent]

It doesn't look like Mend at all though.

 

[Binsu]

The icon is really obscure or should we say, I cant understand what that. It doesnt resemble a Naga to me, maybe give a bigger image so everyone here can see what this is because in my case, I cant understand what is this.

 

[Marcos DAB]

Although very small, looks well shaded and illuminated.

 

[Avex]

ATC should be PAS.

 

[morbent]

Oh. Iamtherper, I didn't notice that sry xD ah. Actually. this was supposed to be a naga tail but I added too many stuff I guess. + the bandages don't look like bandages... okay I'll remake it.

But let me explain what it is:
it's a naga tail underwater. 2 algae on the right and left side. Bubbles to represent underwater. Damaged naga tail (blood). + Bandages around it. lycan wanted me to make a Naga Heal Underwater.. Well, I don't have many ideas of how that might look like so I decided to make it like the Mend Pet ability from WoW. But.. if anyone has better ideas I would gladly accept them

I'll try to edit this though.

 

[Deolrin]

Honestly, the "underwater" bit adds too much cluster to the icon. If it was just a naga tail with bandages, maybe with a light blue glow, it would've been more obvious. Also, I think making it a naga hand, rather than a naga tail, would make it even clearer.

 

[morbent]

I thought of that myself.. But Lycan needs it to be underwater. And a hand underwater is harder to make since you don't have the Sea/Ocean sand ground. I'll make it a hand though. The bandage will be more obvious then.

 

[Roland]

Such a Very nice icon, the Shading is terrific and the colors are outstanding!

I'll rate it 30/30+ 500

 

[morbent]

Updated.

(reset your page to see it)

 

[I3lackDeath]

Btw, BD, I experimented a bit with that glow effect, I think it turned out quite well. Without liquifying it though cuz it looks weird with my comp and it lags too much.

Ah, I see. That's such a damn shame, liquifying stuff results in pwetty effects. :V

Your icons are still rather undefined, because your large feature many sketchy lines.
That's totally fine for concepts etc, but you should improve definition of your submissions.
Yeah, I know you don't want to spend eternity on stuff (and frankly, so does CRAZYRUSSIAN), but it's worth it.

 

[morbent]

Heh, yeah But Crazyrussian does his detail well :\ defined and all.
It's not only the time though. At times I really don't know how to fix a specific thing - make it more detailed. For example, we have a.. a sheet. How do I add detail to a sheet of paper? If it isn't in any perspective, etc. --> it has no light, it has no places to add different color to. I can add a texture of course. But.. does a sheet of paper have such a defined texture? Like a stone? no. So .. how do I add the detail? There are other weird cases in which, the blurry thing looks better than the defined one So how do I make the detailed one be better than the one I had before? Details are.. goddamn hard to make


I guess it's the fact that I can't make clear lines yet, that stops me from making detail... they would fix everything. The form will have good outlines and it would look good :|

 

[Land-Sengklek]

Another One! Cool its time to rate !

 

[Narandza]

I don't understand how the wrap goes trough the thumb fin...
Fuck logic!

 

[morbent]

Me too.


But I decided that, well.. urgh, this is a ... tiny little detail that we can skip ;D
At first I wanted to make a wound (hole) into the thumb fin, but then I thought "who would care anyways, with the hole it would look stupid!" and if I put the wraps someplace else, it would look stupid again

so. Better be "fuck logic" than "fugly shit" ;D not that it isn't ugly now...

 

[stonneash]

Great icon 5/5

Off topic

I don't understand how the wrap goes trough the thumb fin...
Fuck logic!

Didn't see that haahaha

 

[morbent]

That's what I was hoping for to not be seen.

 

[Bboy Moose]

man, it's great to see you put some effort in and make these dope icons.

 

[Heinvers]

I would personally give it a 6/5. Great job!

 

[morbent]

Thanks hain!

 

[Sin'dorei300]

The shape and color choice are great, but needs a bit of contrast & sharpness!

 

[HappyCockroach]

sorry for being a douche, but the bandage "perforating" the fin isn't something that will go unnoticed. in fact, it's the first thing that drew my attention..

you may take off one segment of the fin. i think it's better..

 

[morbent]

Hmm I guess. Well, too lazy for that.
