My Vote happily goes to zzJoennzz, I find the icon amazing. I love the effects along with the image itself. The most eye-catching imo; is the colour choices used throughout the whole icon, it's sassy yet calm at the same time.

I came so close to voting for myself by mistake then
i went for alternative, i like the way it was really minimalistic. I can't really explain but i like the way the colours turned out, they look kinda chalky. god i suck at explaining this sorta stuff ¬.¬

Nice to see a number of participants. :3

But anyway, my vote is leaned towards Galukxy's icon. I just love the colours that are used for the icon, as well as the positioning of the stock. The focal is also lovely and so is the negative space that surrounds it. :)

Signomi GMV also. Her icon was the only one I would actually use, and the colours are quite nice. Though I would advise her not to sharpen outlines as much, so manually sharpening is the way to go here. Regardless, my favourite of the bunch. I liked Alternative's, but it had too much white and brightness as well as being over-sharpened.

I love Siggy and her work, I really do, but I'm voting for Alternative's entry. It's easy to the eye, and I really loved that icon he made. ^..^ I still will always love Siggy's work, but I decided to vote for someone else. =3

Galukxy! I love the colour, I love the crop, and I think it's just gorgeous. :)

A close second for me is Signomi, but I think it's a bit too bright and sharpened so the face of the character is a bit hard to make out, even with a large size. u_u Otherwise the crop and stock are beautiful.


paired with professor plum.

I also liked Galuxy's, but there wasn't a great deal done with the stock, it's mostly just a crop of the original image with very little changed. So without trying to seem rude or anything, make sure that you guys take into account what is done with the stock, upon voting. Technique is 90% of what IotW is about, so yeah mini, you can do whatever you wish with the stock, otherwise it wouldn't be much of a contest :p

Im definitely voting for Signomi's icon. For me, I felt the changes she made to her stock are by far the best. Many entries actually made the stock crop look worse.

take a few sʇuǝɯoɯ and look at this tag.
