Oh wow, how is it possible for you and your comments to be so awesome and encouraging and perfect all the time? *___* I'm so glad you like the remake icons so much, it was such an interesting challenge while also serving as the perfect excuse to try to improve some badly executed stuff.

it's so interesting to see how you play with light textures (vs. grunge textures), because it gives your icons such a great, soft, gentle look.
Oh, wow, it's always a bit weird when people compliment my lighting because quite honestly I have no idea what I'm even doing with it! I kinda suck at light sources and stuff, like in almost all these icons it looks like light is coming from all sorts of directions instread of just one, haha. And I didn't notice any of this while making them. But then again I trust your judgment so if you say you like it, I guess I'm happy with it!

Oh and I love that you picked pretty much all of my favorites in the Rose icons, especially in the themes section which I actually had time to spend on. Still, glad you found positive things in the more quickly made category and ac sets too! Blocking isn't all that easy to me though, I mean it's not impossibly hard like blending or text, but it's an afterthought much more often than I'd like - tbqh half of my blocking icons only have blocking cause the coloring has fucked up the image quality beyond any other salvage than more resizing .__.

Thank you so very much for another amazing comment!!! ♥
