enjoy: Needs more highlights, and make the shading stronger. Define it a bit more, and maybe blend the background more together. Make some kind of details on the arrow. It looks too simple. Maybe make some thin metal, on the wood, like runes or something, or zoom in on the arrows head, and make a some details, like airwaves around it or something. It looks pretty flat, so besides the shading and highlights, that can help it to look less flat, maybe try to change the angle. I don't know if the wood is c'n'p, but it looks like it to me, but the icon is 50 % drawn in hand, as far as I can see, but I would like you to show me some WIP.

enjoy: I don't see any visible changes since last time. Do what I previously suggested.

Simple and good.

I like the shading and shape of the whole arrow itself. But i think it would be much better if it showed the whole arrow. at least until the shaft. Then it would look much better.

But other than that. Your best icon so far! Well Done Pippo!

3/5

[supertoinkz]

the wood is not wood

 

[X-OMG-X]

the wood is not wood

It is.

 

[pippo]

the wood is not wood

Make some advices to improve it or shut up...

 

[supertoinkz]

sigh
darken the lines
lessen the white, it looks like metal

 

[pippo]

It couldn't look like metal?
and what means lessen?

 

[supertoinkz]

the white
decrease it, use a 100 brown
dont stick with white, its for blending and shine

The wood should go longer then the corner, and you should change the background, its to plain at the moment imho.

Try using this glow and move the arrow 90 degrees to the left, so it looks left up.

 

[pippo]

I will try...

edit: I didn't understand how do i do the BackGround...Can you explain me it?

Edit: I understood but I don't use GIMP :/

hmm... i dont like the background... cuz the orange and the red makes it hard to see.. i would recommend u to change the orange part... cuz the red is good... also... the wooden part of the arrow is a bit big...

 

[Anachron]

Move the arrow so that it looks with the focus on top left and let the background stay green.

Hmm i dont like the red effect, it needs more movement. Maybe make it like fire moving around the arrow?
