Consistency | The first 2 icons match good, but the 3rd doesn’t really go with the “shooter” “ rifle” theme your going for as it seems like a magician and the hawk in the background doesn’t seem to match the rile theme. The last icon is nice, it would be nice if it was reddish or yellowish too match the color scheme. It would be nice if all the icons matched in color. | 7% |
Blizzard style | Each icon has a unique blizzard style, colors are high contrast and vibrant. Details are clean and show exactly how the icon works. | 10% |
Theme and creativity | Icons are very unique and creative, But there are some areas that need changed. The icon with the magician or mage character needs to be defined. It doesn’t really seem to match the rifleman theme, Also the hawk in the background is very confusing, i am not sure what that represents. The rest of the icons seem to have a nice creative theme and goes well with the rifleman feel towards his abilities. | 19% |
Technical note | Colors - 5 Composition - 5 Expressiveness, Shape - 3 Definition, Sharpness, Clarity - 10 Shading - 10 Realism, Proportions - 9 Rendering, Details, Materials - 10 Note: All icons are vibrant and the colors pop out great. The shape of each icon is perfect and they are very sharp and not blurry. Each icon given shows what the icon does or will do in game, they also are very defined and are very specific on the rifleman character. The details in each icon are fantastic, highlights are placed well, and positioning is on point. | 52% |

Consistency | These icons match together well, the colors are very vibrant and contrasted. The colors match each icon and each of them compliment each other well. Each icon shows what the icon is needed for and shows what the unit can do for abilities. The icon shown that has the creature and his tentacles flaying could be defined a bit more to show and match the other icons in the group. | 8% |
Blizzard style | The last icon that shows "Poison" being shot out of the creatures mouth is very much blizzard style, as is the icon with the purple mouth, it reminds me of blizzard style icons. The sword icon and the ATC (Autocast) icon seem very well made but doesn't really show off the blizzard style. | 7% |
Theme and creativity | The theme used in these 4 icons is showing off what the unit or creature used by the artist well. Each icon shows a purple hue and matches all 4 together, some icons are detailed and are very sharp, some are very choppy and could use some smooth shading. Creativity in these 4 icons are unique, the ATC icon doesn't really show whats happening expect a creature and its tentacles, It would be nice if you added something else that shows what that icon represents. The rest of the 3 icons do have proper representation of what they do. | 17% |
Technical note | Colors - 5 Composition - 3 Expressiveness, Shape - 3 Definition, Sharpness, Clarity - 7 Shading - 7 Realism, Proportions - 8 Rendering, Details, Materials - 8 Note: The colors presented are very high contrast and they all match each other perfectly. The colors could be less saturated and some spots need some highlights. A few of these icons could be shaped better and defined. The sword icon with the purple goo could be defined a bit more too show how the goo has got onto the sword or showing some better effect than what is presented. The details are nice, the last icon that shows green poison is very well done and the shading and highlights are spot on. The rest of the 3 icons details could be edited more, or could be defined more too give more of a blizzard type style. The subject here represents a creature and its abilities and alot of points where covered here and some could use a bit more updating. | 41% |

Consistency | Each icon stated by this artist show what the unit or character does as abilities. These icons are very well represented together with the unit they have created for. All 4 icons work well together and show what they are as abilities. The only thing i see wrong is the last icon that shows claws being slashed at an enemy, the colors could be re done and the shading and highlights could be defined a bit more. | 8% |
Blizzard style | The blizzard style here is very well executed, the first 3 icons are put together well. The shape of each 3 icons shown, are nicely made and they match together as a whole. The last icon that has the claws in it needs to be improved and defined better. The colors need to be changed to match the other 3 icons, and it isn't really well made to fit the whole group of icons here. | 8% |
Theme and creativity | These 4 icons work well together and are very creative for the unit given. The ideas are very creative and it shows the theme of a "Wolf" unit in the game. Quality in these 4 icons are a nice concept showing what the wolf can do in battle, each icon has a unique flavor and style showing off what the unit can do. Like i said above, the last icon with the claws could be defined more and possibly add a more creative feel towards it. | 18% |
Technical note | Colors - 3 Composition - 5 Expressiveness, Shape - 3 Definition, Sharpness, Clarity - 8 Shading - 8 Realism, Proportions - 9 Rendering, Details, Materials - 8 Note: The colors show in these icons are very nice and are very smooth and not so saturated or high contrasted. The shape and proportions of each icon are very well put and positioned very well. The only thing i see with shape and positioning is the last claw icon, could use more definition and positioning, the colors could be defined also. Shading on these 4 icons are really well made and the highlights are where they need to be, they are well executed. Except, for the claw icon because it could a bit more definition like i stated before. | 44% |

Consistency | The icons you have presented match together well, there are a bunch of green hues here that match each other perfectly. Some things i think should be edited is the last icon with the lightning bolt, it needs more definition. This also goes for the icon with the foot of the dragon, this needs defining on the ground area that the foot is touching. It seems very un-done and choppy, it needs more texture added towards it. | 7% |
Blizzard style | The scales icon seems very like blizzards style of icons, and so is the icon with the dragons mouth. These 2 compliment each other well and show exactly what they are. The other 2 icons with the dragons foot and the lightning bolt, they need alot of defining and reworks. They do not seem very blizzard style and may need some more editing. | 5% |
Theme and creativity | Green and lightish green hues are nice here, the theme all together shows a dragon and his abilities. The creativity shown is decent, but i feel like it could be alot more added towards these icons. Some icons like the lightning bolt doesn't really show a dragon unit, it would be nice if you added that bolt to come out of the dragons mouth area. The foot icon could use more detail and maybe a rough ground terrain under neath the foot, with the ground cracking. | 16% |
Technical note | Colors - 3 Composition - 3 Expressiveness, Shape - 3 Definition, Sharpness, Clarity - 6 Shading - 6 Realism, Proportions - 6 Rendering, Details, Materials - 6 Note: Colors in these icons are nice, but could be a little bit brighter and smoothed out more. Some colors are pale and could use touching up. The shape could also be defined and adjusted some each icon can be matched and go with the overall group. I believe all 4 icons need to be defined more and edited more. The sharpness isn't really good in some icons presented, the shading needs to be cleaned up and smoothed in spots. Details need to be cleaned or added to some of these icons. Overall i think the lightning bolt could be used with the dragons mouth icon, so he is shooting the bolt out. Also, i think the icon with the dragons foot could use a textured ground floor below the foot that has a cracked dirt type flooring towards it. | 33% |

Consistency | These icons are not consistent with each other at all, they need alot of work too match one another and lots of defining work. Keeping a nice consistency with all 4 icons is too keep a nice color chart and making each icon go with each other, keeping the icons looking like abilities and for the unit you have chosen. | 2% |
Blizzard style | The icons presented aren't blizzard style, they need immense improvements too each other. Lots of defining and care needs to be done. | 2% |
Theme and creativity | The theme here isn't very good, some of these icons i cant really tell what is happening at all. Only one of these i can see that its a explosion, and the rest is just random. They need lots of editing and redoing some of the positioning. | 5% |
Technical note | Colors - 1 Composition - 1 Expressiveness, Shape - 1 Definition, Sharpness, Clarity - 1 Shading - 1 Realism, Proportions - 1 Rendering, Details, Materials - 1 Note: The colors presented do not match at all together but that doesn't really help when everything needs to be defined and edited alot more. Shapes needs improvements, and the shading also could use some work here. Details and materials used here, have to be updated and reworked tremendously. Overall, all 4 icons need some more love and care to become a group of abilities for the unit chosen. | 7% |
