Yay, first icon I made for MONTHS. Litterally.

Anyways, I was aiming to change my style a little. Hope it looks good :]

This icon depicts a furious viking holding a sword and shield. Possibly in a state of berserk. :]


100% freehand, as always. Made with Paint.NET. Couldn't be arsed to use Corel today.

[UPDATED]
-Increased contrast. See 1st post for comparison pic.

I tried resizing it, it seems to loose alot of quality when downsized so i cropped it abit differently.

I only wanted to help, i did not edit the pic in any way.
I'll remove it on request.

It's a great icon nontheless.

It was a touch up. I added highlights and shadows there, fella. :P Anyways, the point was that the issue isn't that the icon is pixelated. All it needs is some contrast with stronger highlights and stronger shading.
