Phoenix Trial #6 - Themed Icons

[Palaslayer]

well update, third icon ready. maiev's glaive i think.

 

[Dentothor]

oh man. this shall be the competition of champions. > i am starting my theme now my friends.

 

[Viikuna]

I love those aztec thingies, HappyCockroach. Really cool stuff. What items you are gonna make other than that shield and amulet thingy?

 

[Panda]

Will have my updates soon.

 

[viiva]

-still wip-

 

[Palaslayer]

nice, but fix the background

 

[viiva]

-still wip-

 

[Palaslayer]

awesome. but it sucks that your icons are better than mine ^^

 

[Paladon]

banana, please give my advice a try.

You have a for great parts matching, nearly unique and wonderful clear style.
But the visualisation of the next hundred armours and axes, swords and pauldrons, that's something to be purged out nowadays.
I'd like to accent your last post directly, simply stating that it incredibly reminds me of your entry for the Phoenix Trial #4 glancing with unoriginality.

You can do much better.

 

[viiva]

Hmm I guess you won't like this then

But you are right, it is not very original. In my defense I make alot of icons for a map so my creativity is mostly put into that. Still I will try to make up something different for the next icon.

 

[Mr.Goblin]

Dude, you can make better than that! D:

you are my true rival in the pheonix competition! try harder! D:

The black lines makes it ugly! D:

and you have the talent to make 20 times better! D:

 

[Panda]

Yeah Goblin, i would say the same after seeing Bananas other icons

Anyway. I know this isn't good but i thought it looked quite nice.

 

[67chrome]

Goblin related stuff ftw!

I might include
- a weapond
- something that blows
- a potion
- something tha blows more
- a yard icon
- a summon unit icon
-

don't know, will see tought

Some of those sound dirty. Especially something that blows more. That just reeks of sexual innuendo XD

Anyways, I look forward to seeing what icons you come up with for this contest

@ Palaslayer

Those are some pretty sweet icons, I really like the warden's glaive one, all the little spikes in the blade look pretty badass.

@ Army-of-Pandas

Those icons look like they belong in a more realistic game, most of them are pretty nice. The tip of the sword looks like it aligns perfectly with the icon border though, you should fix some of the lines/shininess/shading on the sword from the border/whatever so it looks more like the sword just extends past the edge of the frame

@ HappyCockroach

That's a pretty creative theme

@ dansaDisco
The left one. The left one looks better

Anyways, I think I'll join this contest, it seems pretty fun. Wish I participated in the last Phoenix Trial, that contest seemed pretty awesome as well. Besides, having another reward couldn't hurt >

 

[Panda]

Thanks chrome, but oh no! don't join! Haha just playing ;P i know you have some good icons up your sleeve.

 

[Dentothor]

pssh chrome. you may be a good skinner but your on me goblin and bannanas turf! >

but considering i havent stared anything yet.... im falling behind :/

 

[Panda]

What do you all think of this? with or without the black outline. :/

 

[67chrome]

@ Dentothor - Then competing against you guys will be that much funner

@ Army-of-Pandas - Definitely without the black outline.

Wip 1



I'm not really happy with the background yet, but I like how meh helmet is looking so far. Tried laying in out with 18 opacity brushes and I really like how easy it is to shade it that way. The color was laid on via color brush at 60% so it would keep the same bluish tone

Thinking about doing some sort of undead theme XD

 

[Revolve]

Lolololol Chrome CnP

Really, looks very much like the Death Knight helmet, looks awsome (Y)

 

[Palaslayer]

pssh chrome. you may be a good skinner but your on me goblin and bannanas turf! >

but considering i havent stared anything yet.... im falling behind :/

i wonder why you always include yourself with banana and goblin, since you just cannot match them. nothing against you, but it is the truth...

edit: before someone calls me an idiot again, no i do not include myself...

 

[Dmazzz]

Lol, I never joined a contest b4 so i dont know how to do anything ... My Silhouete icons were meant to be submitted but idk how... I still need to fix a few things, any suggestions on them?

Or I might just, skip this Contest and just observe... idk, plz let me know.

 

[HyperActive]

Hmm I guess you won't like this then

But you are right, it is not very original. In my defense I make alot of icons for a map so my creativity is mostly put into that. Still I will try to make up something different for the next icon.

What map? I've gotta check it out .

 

[Paladon]

Besides, this PT is about themed items and not about themed weapons/armours sets.

 

[viiva]

Dragon potion. Better?

 

[Paladon]

Much

You can still put in some more contrast between the cork and the dragon's head.

 

[viiva]

Yeah, probably, and reduce the black lines a bit.

 

[Palaslayer]

nice! as usual.

 

[viiva]

Think I'll do a dragon theme.

 

[Palaslayer]

Night Elf Warden - Maiev:

Demon Hunter - Illidan:

Druid of the Talon - Furion:

Priestess of the Moon - Tyrande:

added a new icon, blindfold for the demon hunter.

 

[Panda]

Very nice Pala, i like the blindfold

 

[Joe-black-5]

Damn competition is though
good luck all.

 

[Panda]

Heres my 5 icons Im still working on the helm a little so its not a full capacity yet.

Also, the markings on all my icons are "Bloodlust Runes" if you wanted to know. And, ill have my 5 final icons finished sometime soon

 

[Dentothor]

pretty sweet AoP

 

[viiva]

It should be 4 though

 

[dansaDisco]

My new theme will be "Maces"

This will be a first wip


Demonic/blighted mace of death!

EDIT: Played around with it some more.

 

[stefanstan95]

Hmm. Well this is a quick update of my sword.

Good Luck!

 

[Palaslayer]

My new theme will be "Maces"

[dizzt]

GJ everyone.

 

[Panda]

Thanks guys aperieate it!

 

[Dentothor]

oh man dizzt is in this. its getting pretty crazy now.

 

[HappyCockroach]

Nice WIPs peoplez. The number of submissions should be 4 though.

 

[Panda]

I know its 4 but i just wanted too make one more ill take off the helm and put it as a regular icon

 

[Dentothor]

its a bit noobish but i just want a bit of feedback on the look of the idea.

its honestly been a while since I drew icon art

 

[Panda]

Whats your theme again Dentothor? Anyway awesome icon seems to be good enough but might need some minor adjustments.

 

[CrazyKiD]

Sorry is it too late to join now?

 

[HappyCockroach]

Sorry is it too late to join now?

Not really. You can join as long as we didn't reach the deadline, just finish your work before it.

@Army-of-Pandas: Looks kewl, that shield reminds me of Icewind Dale =P ...your effects are quite random though... I can't really understand all of their usages.

 

[CrazyKiD]

when will the deadline be?

 

[Mr.Goblin]

I think I will do some Alchemist related stuff (recepie items)

here's the first one.

 

[CrazyKiD]

sorry, I want to know the deadline when it will be?

 

[Joe-black-5]

Contest Dates And Deadline

The contest shall begin on 25.09.09 and conclude on 25.10.09
24:00 (GMT)

[UnholyDobry]

I might join heres one icon from me its wrench and my theme will be dwarf misic items i will also do cog(s) screw(s) and pipe(s) if i decide to join.

Army of pandas you can do better than that i think, palaslayer i like those same goes for banana, dentothor i like that icon and chrome thats pretty awsome icon, goblin i like your icon but knowing your skills you can do way better than that oh and dansadisco i love your Itching thorn icon.
