enjoy: Maybe just a hand, which is a bit transparent like stealth mode or something, reaching for a small bag or something?

Good idea, but its to cartoonish... maybe zoom in a little to the bag and make it look more realistic...

Thanks for feedback Narandza... I will wait until tomorrow after work to update it, so meanwhile i hope everyone leaves as much feedback as they can!

I recomend you to change whole concept, because a lot of undeeded detail will just confuse people. Make it simple, like hand going to get in pocket, hand that already got an object from pocket and part of this object is still in the pocket. it you have better ideas, go for it.
And yes, try to make hand to looks like relaxed, because pick pocket is very sencetive thing (no I haven't done it by myself ). Also it will get + to artistizm also.

Yeah, it is hard to tell someone is getting pick-pocketed here, you need to, first of all show someone is getting pick-pocketed and then have vibrant details so it all can be seen by everyone and so they can tell what is going on here. I suggest, having a man stand there like you have on the right of the icon, with his pocket visible. Then, have a guy as you have on the left have his hand in the guys pocket trying to steal something.

You chould do this or, just make a close-up of a pocket of a guy and have a hand going into it as a "pickpocket" then make a background of some kind. An example of a close-up is this, it has all what you need it a very small box.

-Army.

Thanks for feedback, both of you! ok i will zoom in a little and make more details on the hands... but i won't do pockets... since i think that pockets don't fit warcraft... making a money pouch strapped to the belt will be more warcraft:ish and original. Thank you both for great feedback.

What i mean is that pickpocket doesn't have anything to do with pockets

Information From Wikipedia

Picking pockets without a person's knowledge and approval is a crime, a form of larceny which involves the stealing of money and valuables from the person of a victim without their noticing the theft at the time.

The reason i made it zoomed out is because i wanted it to look like the were in crowded place with a lot of people socializing with eachother.

EDIT: i will update after i get home from work

This icon sure reminds me of Assassin's Creed 2. 4/5.

Yeah that was some of my inspiration

 

[The Panda]

The guy on the right doesn't really look like a guy, i suggest making him more realistic so its not confusing.

 

[Walle]

Ok thanks... i think it looks like a villager, but i'll make it clearer!

Useful icon but you should have drawn a dagger slashing a bag of gold on a belt. The picture is too far to emphasise the "pickpocketing"

 

[-Grendel]

heh it looks like the hand is touching the guys penis lol
great icon by the way

 

[Walle]

heh it looks like the hand is touching the guys penis lol

you pervert! :>

 

[Fjodor_Murmel]

I like that one can see it's a peasent being pickpocketed

 

[Barade]

Very useful for a pickpocket profession/item/spell.
