Looks interesting, but at the same it also sort of looks like a large picture unintended for a screenshot got shrunk down.

I would like to see a WIP.

too random and far from being available to understand, what it is supposed to be.
You should define objects more, cause currently it is just a random color composition (not bad looking one, but a random)

 

[DESTROYER123]

It's a bit not clear....
I can't see a thing out of this..........

 

[Tank-Commander]

looks like a scaled down image from either a piece of art, or a game/movie, I'd like to see a WIP on this one, ontop of what the others have said.

 

[leyrender]

How do I post images?

 

[Panda]

Yes, this is far to random, you need to define everything.

 

[Roland]

The image is kinda confusing and looks like a brizzle brazzle That I don't know, I think it's just CnP But you should show the proof of the image, Amigo.

when u gonna post a message, put "go advanced", and below the message window is an button "manage attachments". Use it.

 

[leyrender]

This was my first attempt at it really before I tried to increase the saturations to make it clearer... Didn't really work but oh well

 

[Binsu]

I suggest just remove the BG and make that black. Right now it looks so random, far from being understand on what the icon tries to convey, not enough detailing and also please give a WiP! =)

EDIT: WiP given.... XD

Too many bugs in the swarm is part of the problem; causes us to just see it all as one blob.

Trim it down to one main bug focusing towards a corner and the others behind it.

ABOUT UPDATED ICON.

Dude, i can really understand, when guys make a icons from a models faceshots, but when you try make an actual icon for spell by manipulations with model? U are kidding us?
This does not works in that way, cause icon is an piece of handmade art, which has really hard specifications, and such as tricks will no work, when u making an piece of art sized by 64*64.

Voting for rejection cause of two reasons:
1. Icon has no freehand work (generally). Whoknows it this model made by author? If no - CNP\Stealing.
2. Icon looks really bad, generally. Unacceptable quality.

Thanks for that, I will try adjust it to have that and hopefully it will be clearer.

Peekay you're wrong, icon looks really good as quality.

However, I suggest to make it with like 2-3 bugs, focusing on the head of one of them in, say, the down right corner and the other 2 flies behind the head, showing some wings and stuff. This way you will provide the head of an insect giving the assumption that these 2 paints behind are insects too! Plus, the wing will further prove that these figures are insects. The smoke in this icon, btw, is pretty awesome, you can add it to such an image (with the 3bugs) - this way you will give feeling and swarmness...swarmness. Hmm. Swarm. To the icon, which will complete it. You can use some green colors if you want them to look infected.


Other than that,this icon looks amazing as quality, the only problem is the focus. (btw, this version is a lot better than the old one)

Thanks all ways to improve it are appreciated I will try to do that later.
