I found that really amusing and fun to watch. Maybe this is food for our mind, I mean, now you can realize the importance of what @Avery is doing here. I requested a few things in the past, I made also some recommendations, but hey! She has really made things that I never asked, and I realize in the proccess that I might need them. Once again, a big thank you to you @Avery for everything you do! So @Avery since you love feedback let's give you some:

9mm pistol : What a graphics expert would create. I really like it, with a slight recoloring and darker colors on the metal parts, it might look like a Beretta model.   

Resized Fire, Thunder and Ice: Well, ice and fire are really pretty. The thunder has a strange color (lilac) but since lilac is my favorite color I really don't mind! Rocks like a hurricane I guess!   

Modula Rapier: Jaw dropping. And the first one can work for other weapons too!   

Canadics requests: The flag is fantastic. It took you a lot of time to make it I imagine.     

Soghum: Nice one!   

Random Equipment: I left this for the end...   That sword... it made me think of....

In other words: Fantatic as always @Avery!

Ohhh it was a joke (and as you could see i hardcore fell for it).

In that post you said the icons were 21x12. Why didnt I notice that sooner?

*ahem* Anyway, it's nice to see you back with your rtp-like icons.

We all need to make sure we stick to the rules, for Avy!   0o0/

 

[Bastrophian]

XD !! HAHAHA!! That was a very good one!! Thank you so much for the big 9mm AND the small one (aww, you didint have to do that one too! Then again...you dont have to make any of these, so THANK YOU , THANK YOU, THANK YOU XD)!!

Yeah, when I first read it I thought they didn't look 21X12 (that would have been fairly obvious), but I just dismissed it for some reason.

 

[Avery]

They are 12 pixel wide ;3 In that specific style one pixel is two pixels wide, so I have 2x1 pixel pixels.

A friend of mine is making a commodore styled rpg maker game and so I got all the style instructions of him xD

I really made all icons on a 12x21 pixel grid and enlarged it to 24x21 then^^ (Did I write 21x12? Sorry, 21 is the height, so 12x21)

-> some more informations about commodore 64 graphics: http://www.studiostyle.sk/dmagic/gallery/gfxmodes.htm (I had slightly different rules because those icons would count as sprites or something like that, as said, the friend gave me the instructions and I did my best)

 

[_Shadow_]

Commodore64 and Commodore Amiga were the pioneer computers on the demo scene (digital graffiti).

@Avery, and the rest... I FREAKIN strongly recommend you to find the time and watch that (in youtube they got also subtitles in English) fantastic documentary:

 

[Nguyen]

Btw to requesting modular icons: it's okay to ask for those and it's okay to ask for a little more than three parts because a part is not really a "full" icon ;3

Is it too early to request more icons? >_<

If not, may I request some more modular hilt icons? c:

Happy easter!
Of couse I did not make all missing icons to the 2000, but I have a quite huge collection for you! (And they weren't done within one day, I have been preparing this for a while)

Feedback would be awesome!
 

 
At first, viking stuff. And yes there are no horns, because they just had none. I wanted to stick with the real helmets and wespons and that's what I did. They could be "normal" equipment or historical artifacts, because they are both ;3
 
Secondly, a bone set. Something I missed when I made the bows, something crafted out of dead boss monsters and magic <3
 
Third, lemon, currant, elder
 
Then I thought of another "dead boss monster and magic"-set, this time a blue dragon was slaughtered^-^' Well, or a blacksmith just wanted to craft an set that looks like this.
 
Some office supplies that work together, mabe for a detective game where you have to find a folder and get some informations...
 
Pastries <3
 
A "collecteble" bread-set xD
 
Then we have a diamond shaped container icon :3
 
And last but not least a salami :3
 
 
The bad news:
I will rework my rules. I will deny every request that just includes the name if the item and the images links because I am sick of feeling treated like an icon machine and I will really deny requests when you can easily find the things you need in the sheet or in granny's icon list - and be sure, I know a lot about icons, I'll see it when you were too lazy to do this. This is not to bother you; you want me to spend time for you and I just ask you to be respectful in return.
 
The good news: I'm going to update my start post now, so there will be the current full sheets soon.

 

[Candacis]

That blacksmith knows what he is doing! The blue dragon helmet is awsome! As well as those blue dragon shoes.

The collectable sandwich cracks me up, someone just have to put this in as a quest.

 

[Ralpf]

The Viking helmets are awesome, though I think the first one is actually Anglo-Saxon, not sure though (doesn't really matter).

Bone and dragon stuff is cool, I like the diamond "container", too.

 

[_Shadow_]

Vikings equipment icons are fantastic especially the helmets. Well weapons are historical correct I suppose. Simple and effective.

Bone set was a VERY good add on to the existing equipment sets. The armour is awesome!!! The boots too, I love those claws.

Lemon, currant and elderberries... wow! Currant is fanstastic!!!

Blue dragon equipment was fantastic too. Blue is also one of my favorite colors.

Office supplies... yes they are fantastic, these will be VERY useful on some games, including mine maybe. Sothank you for these in advance. This is what happens with you. People might never asked for something they might need, and you even provide it to them, without even knowing they needed it! I have to admit that your workshop is one of the best in this forum @Avery.

And then comes thw sweet stuff

How to make a salty sandwitch I suppose and also a sausage!

Well these things can become a full cooking system with many more icons you already got. Just a crazy thought really. Don't mind me.

Fantastic as always @Avery! I have no words. Thank you really! I appreciate the things you make for all of us! :3

 

[Sharm]

Ah Avery, you give the best presents! <3

The helmets are really great, the last two remind me of Skyrim and had me singing the theme song.  Love the new weapons.  Additional styles for the multi-set!  So cool!  They both look really interesting.  All the food looks yummy.  I agree, we're well on our way for having all the icons needed for a cooking mini game.  As always the stuff you make for collection quests and the container icons are useful and cool.  You did a really good job on that binder sleeve, it looks like it would have been hard to pull off.

 

[Mimironi]

I really like the bone set. I see a lot of bone sets in rpg's, but I dont think anyone's made it into an icon for RPGMaker.

I've always liked the container sets, I'd use them as HP/MP trackers. Like 100% HP=full gauge/50%=half/0%=empty.

Pastries! They look gooood -v-

 

[D-Skyline]

Forgive me, I'm now going to have a brief moment.. #fan girl.

Now with that aside, absolutely awesome. I'm very impressed with the amount of effort that was put into these. Not only are they pure eye candy, but they're also organized so you don't have to search 600 different places while retaining the luxury of window shopping when finding the right one. Another thing that I'm happy with is that none of these are rips or mindless copies of one another and that you've taken some time and thought into these, even if they are icons, it's the little things that count the most. 

 

[lottesong]

got my request icon !! (dances happily)~~  thank you so much~  Danke schoen<3  Avy
I followed your tutorial and tried to draw some icons myself but failed at this tiny plant, so I got stuck with my game for one month..
can‘t describe it in words but your workshop is really great! :
 

 

[SuperMasterSword]

I don't know where to start! The helmets! The Dragon-armor! The bone-armor! The dragon and bone weapons! The pastries, the diamond, THE BINDER, and even a sheet protector! With paper, and paper in sheet protector! It's all so amazing and wonderfully detailed and amazing! And, I wish I knew of more words! Awesome, fantastic, extraordinary, super-duper insanely awesome to the extremity-ith power! Every single one of your icons is extraordinary. I hope they all get used the same way. Thank you SO SUPER-DUPER-MUPER much, for taking the time to make these for us, just, thank you. I don't know how else to say it, simply, thank you. They're awesome, and YOU are awesome.

Hi Avery
First of all, let me say thank you for supporting the community with your stunningly beautiful work!
 
If you have the time, I'd also like to make a request. For my futuristic RPG I'd like to have an icon for nanobots (nano-roboters). One of my characters is an engineer and he programmed a few nanobots to fight for him. He controls them using a smartphone and later a tablet. I've designed a smartphone with a few nanobots on its screen. 

 
I imagine the nanobots to be little microscopic round robots (shaped like poke-balls from pokemon) 

Spoiler

with a grey/metallic color. Maybe there's a pattern on them (for example a vertical and a horizontal line). There isn't just one nanobots it's a whole army of bots, some smaller and some bigger. Maybe the icon shows a few nanobots, maybe just one or two, not sure how many you can fit in a 24x24 graphic. 
 
I'd be very happy to finally have a good icon for my nanobots
 
Edit: also here a (very) rough sketch of the hero with his nanobots (he's holding a manual here, not a smartphone).

[Kes]

Oh dear, having settled on one set of icons for my weapon shop you come up with these, and I'm now tempted to switch.  But how to decide between them?  Decisions, decisions.

Great, as always.  And I think I see a way of being able to use those diamond containers.  Hmm....

Hi Avery.

First of all, i wanna say that i love your icons! Theyre really something!

When i looked at your list of icons, in the Skill/Status section, i saw an eye and an eye with an X on it so i was wondering, do you think you could make the same thing but instead of an eye, could you draw a mouth and a mouth with an X on it please?

Thank you and have a good day!
