BTNScorchedBlade

This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
Here is my 3rd creation, the Scorched Blade! The other 2 are always rejected. I wish this one will not... You can use this icon for Fire weapons your creating! If you want some update please do comment here.

UPDATED: Added a black color to the edges for the flame smoke and a red background!

Doesn't look like fire (but it looks like bright red lightning XD), try making it have more emphasis,right now it looks like a screenshot (but it isn't)

By emphasis,i meant background and proper zoom
here's some examples so you can use it as a point of reference

Well,not necessarily zoom,just make it bigger so the details can be a lot more appreciated
 
Your objects have to be bigger, most of the icon space should be filled.

The handle is way too small and the blade too simple.

I can see that you're trying, but refrain from using that much smudging. It won't give you as good results as if you've drawn stuff with defined shapes.

Anywho, please read the various icon tutorials we have here, and try to apply the techniques. Practice, and you will get better and better.

Im just askin now how to make the sword fill the whole icon space? If there is a tutorial here that teaches about filling the whole icon space in GIMP, well direct me there. THANK YOU!:grin:
