Shuriken

[Luckerguy]

Hi,

I present to you the Shuriken. Made by 100% Freehand.

Please give Comments and Critique.

I hope you like it.

Updates:

- added Ornamentation ( Decoration... whatever... )
- deleted the blue background
- changed glow colour

- Changed File to PNG ( Which is much better than JPEG/JPG )

- Increased size of the Shuriken
- More Shade on the Metal

Metal needs more shading.

 

[Luckerguy]

Hm, i dont know where to shade more...

Is it generally to bright?

I like it, but I'm not so sure about the blue background, can you make one with black background as well? And you could make some decorations in the middle so it doesn't look so.. empty? Anyway gj!

 

[doom_sheep]

reverse the black/blue on the background

 

[Luckerguy]

Okay i updated my Icon. One with Decoration and one without. How do you like it?

 

[viiva]

The black background is nice, but the glow is too dark now (imo)
And by decoration i ment something like this:

you know, just another patch (i dont know the word for it xD) on it

I think the blades are too wide... :/

There are different types of Shurikens.

It's kind of a boring shuriken... I've seen ones that are much cooler looking. This one just looks like the ends of 4 exacto-knives welded together.

Why not make something like these?

There are cooler ones right there... why pick the plain one?
