Here's a complete collection of icons made by me for HoS mod, WC1C and other projects. Some of them have already been published on this forum, some have been done only recently. You're free to guess what unit/spell each icon belongs to :)

And yes I used CnP. So what? As long as it looks good, it's nothing wrong :)

I see you mentioned you CnP, and that's fine - are any of them freehand, or do they all take from other sources?

Well, every icon is a complex combination of original icon artwork, freehand stuff, screenshots and pics from other sources. Here's an example:

Spearman icon (Row 1, #2)

Step 1: I took a screenshot of Spearman's portrait in War3Viewer, and retouched it in PSP (scaled down, smoothened sharp points, sharpened face detail).

Step 2: Added jaw/chin from Warhammer: DO Ork Boyz artwork.

Step 3: Added fangs and hair from original War3 icons, then edited them to fit better.

Step 4: Drawn teeth by hand in PSP.

Step 5: Enjoyed the result :)

Oh and thanx for positive feedback everyone :)

So are you suggesting stealing, or attempting to redo what Rommel/Bezdomniy did?

Great icons! I know what some of them are from your previous post several months ago... I still think the cleaver sword or whatever (Row 5 #1) is the albatross icon... you can see what looks like feathers alont one edge, as well as its bill.

That's amazing what you do to get those icons... takes too much time and requires too much patience for me though :p

And he almost definitely WON'T put them up for download, please READ beofre saying "k00l j00 pwn dl plz," they're for various mods and wouldn't be released until the projects are done.

Wow damn nice icons.

CNP is okay the way you did it. You cnped from like 50 different things to make them. That takes alot of time and effort.
