Avy's Icon Workshop [new wind icons]

[Avery]

Denied:

DarthVollis - didn't even have a look at my rules

KeniisuGaming - as Ksjp17 said, I have everything as base and my rules say no recolor requests.

Tarsus - yeah, I might be too picking, but the way of requesting really killed my motivation to do anything.

As said several times before:

I am a human beeing and no machine where you can insert few words or images and get all the stuff you want.

It is important for me to know what I am doing and I don't want to do your research. If you give me just an image it feels really careless (I know, you dont mean it like that, but it's the way it is).

Look:

If someone want's a shield and just gives me a image I don't know what is the important thing. I have to reduce the details for sure and I might cut out those you really wanted to have and I just didn't know. Knowing what you are needing the icons for is also inspiring and let me know, that you really care about your request.

The only thing I've ever got for currently over 1800 icons is your kindness. This might sound proud and arrogant, but I am giving you qualitiy work and I want you to care about your requests.

If I haven't overseen anything all other requests are accepted.

 

[Caitlin]

I am hoping you'd do another request for me.  I need a gummy, only one, because I can recolor.  I need it in a fish shape, so I looked for a gummy that looked like what I needed.  If you would prefer to do another shape, I am open for that, too. I have been told that gummies are called something else, overseas, so I have included a picture of them. Normal rtp icon.

Actually, the joke is that my character, Cat thinks they are real fish, but Dog keeps telling her that they are made from fruit juices.  What else can you say that Cat is a kid and is in the middle of a duh moment in her young life.

Hey Avery! I have a request for you if you're willing to take it.

I have been looking everywhere for a composite bow, but haven't been able to find one. I'm looking specifically for a semi-circular shaped bow with two pulleys on either end and the string looped through the pulleys. I'm terrible at explaining what I'm visualizing, so I'll include some pictures in a spoiler tag so you can see what I mean.

Thank you for your consideration

So, um I hope this isn't too much to ask, but can you do a chainsaw sprite? Something like this, I'm hoping: https://pirategeorge.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/gasoline-chainsaw-cs2500.jpg

Also, it seems like you don't have any claw weapons in your icon set. Is there any particular reason for that?

 

[Avery]

Finally:

Before I have to rage:

-No, I won't add any other type of equipment to the set. This was a lot of work and I am glad that this is off my to do.

-The next who is adding a request will get my anger because there are obviously already many unsolved requests and it's even in the rules that you shall take care of that point. The last requesters now please feel a irritated glimpse on you.

Okay, let's talk about the nice things:

I finally managed to complete my equipment set \o/ *throws confetti*

Thanks to Sharm and Leen encouraging me on the last "run".

What is new:

Spoiler

green: released before

pink: brand new

It was a lot of work and I am really proud of me, the last 112? were done during less then two days, so I am quite exhausted.

Some of the sets don't are that useful in real life, but hey... fantasy and magic *\(°-°~)

My favourite sets are #3 and #11, the most trouble caused #12 and #15.

I wanted to write so many things about that set but now I'm just tired as hell.

I'd really love to hear you opinions about the sets :3

And now I'm going to take a rest.

 

[Bastrophian]

:….........D there so awesome!!!!!!!!!! O-M-G!!! I LOVE THEM ALL!!! But my favorite set is the last one to the right! XD .....OMG SO MANY EQUIPS!!!!

 

[_Shadow_]

I was waitig for the whole thing to be finished. I am that kind of guy that wants to look something like a whole and say a big and huge "WOW! Congratulations Avery!!!" 

This is a set of 13 different weapons of 16 types for each. I mean... WHAT?

It is fantastic in my opinion and it is very hartd to choose one to be my favorite. Let's just say that I think that 8 and 15 are very detailed and might took you a lot of time to perfect.

Fantastic.   

Sleep well.

 

[Kes]

These are just superb.  You have every right to feel proud at having done them.  They are so good and so useful, I'm sure that they will be sprouting up in games all over the place.  Only 2 days ago I was moaning to myself about the lack of helmets and now I have this selection to drool over and select from.

Thank you very much indeed.

 

[Candacis]

*throws glitter*

So much looot! I think, every hero would be happy to get something like this after an perilious adventure through a dungeon. Treat your heroes to some high-class high-fancy equipment

Great job, Avery. You already know my favorites. It scares me a bit how effective you are when you are sleep-deprived. But take care of yourself

 

[CrazyCrab]

     Wow. That's a lot of stuff.

I don't know what to say, I wasn't expecting that many equips in one day... I guess I need to come up with more workshops to make all of them now huh?...

Seriously though, I don't know what I'd do icon wise without your help. I feel like I owe you steam keys for all your relatives if my game ever goes commercial.

 

[GrandmaDeb]

Avery this is just really well done. I have to say that i get little goosebumps looking at it! It just has that "wow" factor!

You have outdone yourself!

 

[EternalShadow]

Those are so amazing!!

I'm even getting a Runescape vibe from a few of them o_o

 

[nio kasgami]

you are awesome avery : D 

when will come the store pack full of icons~? 

(just kidding haha)

 

[Kyuukon]

I think it's thanks to Avery we don't see Icon Packs on the store LOL! Thank you so much <3!

 

[Caitlin]

I love all your weapon icons, because I am the sort to have a different look for each weapon.  I couldn't stand having the same look, for very different weapons, so I like to thank you for that.  ^_^

 

[Sharm]

I think you're right Kyuukon.

Okay, Avery, I know how it is to put so much effort into something and then, because you posted it all at once, you don't get as many comments, so I'll do my best to give more commentary to match all the awesomeness that you've put out.  I think I may repeat myself though, I'm not sure how better to say "awesome" and "I love your stuff and it makes me happy every time I see more".

The first thing that caught my attention were the helmets.  They are so very different from each other, it's really quite amazing!  It would have been simple to go with a few shapes and add variety from there, but the silhouettes are vastly different.  I can tell you tried for that level of variety in the other equipment items, but it is most obvious in the helmets.  You even have a different shape for each of the necklace chains!  Because the knives take up the same space in the icon square as the swords they could also be used as great swords if the person using it didn't want knives.  That's an unexpected bonus!  The variety is so strong that I think they'd stand up well to being recolored and used together with the original colors without things getting boring and repetitive.

I really love how strong the theming is.  Each icon in matching sets look like they belong to each other, and it's not just the use of color that accomplishes that.  I'm highly impressed.  I also like the themes you've chosen, it's a really nice mix.  I keep trying to pick a favorite, and I just can't.  Each and every bit of equipment has it's own aesthetic appeal, none of them are lacking in that appeal.

Have I ever told you how your icons are professional quality?  It's true, it wouldn't surprise me one bit if people outside this community would see these and think they're rips.  Especially now that you've got these awesome equipment sets.

I have to ask, because I know how crazy you are and I'm terminally curious: Are you considering this done for good, no more icons for this set, or are you going to, at some point much later, decide to add more to it?  I will be quite happy with either answer.  I already think you're spoiling us rotten with these gifts of lovely icons.

You've said a couple of times that you like seeing your work in-game, so here is a screen shot of the shop selling the Zenith range of Magical Gear and Items for the more discerning mage.  I think you will recognize what's on the table to the left.

I see what you did there!

Good idea! :3

 

[Bequ]
