I like the cropping on the first and thirs icon, Nayden! How did you do the coloring on the third, if I may ask?

aww thanks for your lovely feed back! - about the colouring...I can't exactly remember but I just made lots of layer gradient and used different brushes on top (eg: just normal circle brushes etc) and then I just kept playing with the opacity and blending mode (I mostly used 'soft light'/ 'screen' and 'Lighten').

I can't really remember the rest! lol - sorry that my explanation is so rubbish...

Thanks again xoxoxox

Don't worry about it! I just loved the coloring! The lighting was so soft and gorgeous!

They are really stunning Merc. I love the colouring and cropping of the third, its stunning, and the last is amazing too! I love your lighting effects!

Stunning work everyone else, its all been amazing!

[MarMar]

Thanks!

It's really easy, though:

1. crop and all that

2. duplicate, set to screen and merge.

3. Duplicate again, filters --> gaussian blur

4. brightness/contrast_ +28,+24

5. set layer to soft light.

To get the effect in the third, and last, icon:

Repeat step 3-5

That is simple. They still all look stunning though. Thanks for sharing!

No problem, and thanks for the compliment

Mar- Loving the new work. There is absolutely no way that I can critize you on your work, whatsoever! Love the house icon! It's one of the best house icons I've seen...ever!

Nayden- I love the third so much! I love everything about it...I love it how you mostly play with what you've got. I can't wait till the next icons!

Thanks, Amir!

Nayden, love your Martina McBride ones, they cropping on the 1st and 3rd one is great and the colouring is beautiful too.
