These are actually very funny. I think I like the star head guy playing the guitar best.

Thanks! :) That guy's name is Star, because as far as I can tell he wears that mask because he considers himself a rockstar.

Do the redheads not have lines in their hair or is that something you did? The set is nice, but it doesn't seem like you challenged yourself as much as I've seen in the past, if that makes sense. The icons appear considerably less... worked on. Which isn't a bad thing, per se. Though for the textured one I am having a hard time telling if that's a texture you added or if that's the background that was always there.

When doing blocks behind text (like in the Lyrical icon) do be sure to leave enough "breathing room" for the letters. I am just finding it very tight in there, personally, like those letters are trying to escape.

This is all just me nitpicking, so you can feel free to ignore. It's a nice set overall, just doesn't look like your usual style.

It was something I did. I liked the coloring so I kept it that way.

Thanks for the constructive criticism. I had hoped to make these images really pop out but they were stubborn, for lack of a better term.

Oh, they pop. No worried on the popping.

I like them but I totally like high contrast and bright colors :3 I like it a lot better than like dull subdued ones you know? They're really nice!

Good story, the star-head guy reminds me of Bobobo-bo bo-bobo.

Star makes up some of the weirdest faces. Even when he's wearing a full moon and crescent moon mask. XD

Thanks! :)

The star man kind of scares me...but in a good way? 16 is my favorite but the whole set is very nice. I think your faceless icon is totally fab, btw and I also love how nice the colors are in hush. I wish I could get colors to pop that nicely.

I should just make a Star icon post since everyone loves him so much. XD Thanks for the compliment! :)

I do what Axelle does sometimes and boost up the saturation. Just experiment with how much you increase it.
