i think we already know whos going to win...

don't say that dude, your good too! you just need abit more training, and use more colors, that's all D:

and it's not like i have been participating for the last 4 skinning competition, or that i made more than 20 icons, and 9 skins..

wait.. no I DID that actualy :D

see.. training and observation is the key, also, Bananahut has some mad skills as paladon :D
 
not so useful for a blink spell..

and how many icons are you guys makin? i thought you only needed 4

bah dude, i haven't made icons for a while and i'm inspired D:

so yeah... here's your answer :D I missed you guys! <3

well, Caeyra, its a picture of a warden...

am i going to use that as an ability for a tauren chieftain?

Am I missing something here? ike_ike's entry into this contest for blink also has a picture of a Warden. Why would a Tauren Chieftain be using a Warden spell? Or am I completely misunderstanding you? If that's the case, then I'm sorry.

Blink is real nice, wow. could use some glow maybe

Thanks. Your icons are inspiring, btw. The tornado is all kinds of awesome.

Caeyra, your icon definitely needs to be changed. That may be appropriate for the hero it self, but not the blink ability.

That she's blinking isn't enough then? Do you think there's anything I can do to salvage it, or just I just start from scratch?

Caeyra, yours are actually all really quite awesome. A blue glow might be nicer, though. The problem is that most icons are rather hard to discern ... bleh.

Devine, your evasion icon looks kinda odd. The proportions are rather off, and the colours are kinda weird too.

Evasion kind of looks like he's been surprised by someone tapping him on the shoulder with a sword than him evading anything. =/
I also agree that the lines defining his muscles are too...defined, for lack of a better word. >_< You want to show the shape of his form with light and shadow, not hard lines.

Good point.
You're right ... I feel kinda silly now =/ Such a small canvas and so much defintion >.< I feel like a plain moron =P
Thanks anyways ... I'll try to change his pose too.

Your wolves are getting better too... I'd only make it look more angry.

Next version...
I reworked the boobs, abs, right arm and bit face too.
I didn't add the stupid contrast with that toolthingy this time that's why the colors look better imo.
