Wow, Rad! Nice job on your cherry blossom. But I wouldn't suggest the purple around both the purge and frost attack parts. It makes the fire one look a little offset. Also, nice job on yours, Ruination. It does look a little bit like the fist was sketched on scratch paper first, and then scanned. Try making it a little bit less like a pencil color.

ruination, im afraid that project "Cherr Blossem" suffered a...... FULL SUCESS!!!!!!

omfg thank you so much! i cant express my gratitude enough, so guess i had to flame... :D

jeez leweek, you took everything into consideration, your icon works perfectly!!!!!!!!!!!

now i have a few more requests for you, if its not too much.

(yes you guessed it, more cloud moves)

Braver: make it look like a warrior has jumped into the air, with his sword hilt over head, and the blade behind his back, that would be perfect.

Blade Beam: (yeah i sorta need ideas for this one, just post what it would look like and ill variate from that)

MeteoRain: A few infernal meteors that are streaking towards the bottom left corner of the frame

Omnislash: make it look like a warrior who is slashing extremly rapidly(could be many swords coming from lots of angles.)


hope these rnt too much, id appreciate this as much as the cherry blossem(which was done perfectly i might add)

i came to you because im the only guy on earth who is actually making a serious cloud character, one with awesome moves and such.

(AGAIN THANK U SO MUCH!)there were no problms it wurked perfectly! :D :D

I don't like the fists either but there has to be a rough draft for some things. We will see what Pyromancer says because it is up to him.

Mooman you officially implemented my first icon hooray :) The braver will be pretty easy. For the blade beam, I could make a very large glowing beam of whatever color being shot from the end of a sword, or from outheld hands(you know hands in a position of like fighting games when they shoot their energy balls). Meteorain easy. Omnislash is what I made my portal icon for, so I really have no good ideas how to depict that abillity. A sword with motion blurring would be easy if you want that.

Master Saji I love your icon man well done. You are definitely not -100 :p

Rad, about the sword's 'energy'. He requested a sword which was imbued with both fire and frost. That is a flaming sword with frost around it also. So it is supposed to look a bit juxtopposing...so the fact you think it looks juxtopposing is probly a good thing.

Oh and can anyone tell what this icon is depicting?

lmao yes it is for the Cut Donut ability. The caster will eat it and gain some HP. Also have one for summon scooby snacks for ultimate.

Yes it is cutting the sky :p Glad you could tell.

The sword should be going through it a bit though, the tip is barely touching the 'sky'. About where the first indent is on the sword should be in the slice... Well maybe if u visualize it it looks better.

Thats a good point Rad. I'll see if that looks better.

Here is braver. I used the same dude from my portal icon I made :) If you reeeeaally wanted his sword to be at a downward angle behind his back I can do it. If you hate the lighting I can try something else. Different color perhaps. Or maybe move him down so more of the sword is visible. And meteors...

And here is Pyro's golems duking it out. I tried just bout every effect I could think of to add some flare to this but I didn't like any of em. I also tried frost and flames on the golems but that was cluttery I thought. If you can picture an effect you think would look good Pyro, I'll try it.

meteorain icon looks amazing, youve outdone yourself, i love it.

braver on the other hand.......

sword would NEED to be behind his back, and he would NEED to be jumping in the air(standing on the floor? whaaaaaaat?) try putting him smaller and making a red with a little gold in the background, add some of those kewl shadow effects that you had on your blink-out-of-the-sky move.

that would make it perfect.

next, about omnislash..... i changed what that would do, so i wanna change my icon request accordingly.

wowee, this is hard to think up....
can you think of an idea that would fit the DOTA omnislash?(yes rad, thats right D.O.T.A)

lastly, but not least blade beam
i cant beleive how dumb i was for not seeing how it should be...

here it is. could you make a sword that looks like it has just been slashed.( you know the blur effect on the track of the sword?that looks a TEENSY bit like the buster sword) , then make a yellow beam that looks like it has been shot out about two seconds ago, that is to say, not touching the sword track.

if you can do these icons, then you can do ANYTHING! and i will MAKE people praise your icons :D hf with them.

Damn Mooman really, I like the braver :( Hehe np I will try to make the sword behind him and show his whole body in the air..even tho he is in the air in the one I did. The shadow effects came from a bright light source behind him, is that what you want? That will significantly decrease the readability unfortunately, as you saw in my portal icon.

Your description of the blade beam is good but I still dont fully understand. And I have no idea what buster sword is. I get the slashing motion blur thing, but the beam having been shot beforehand..wha?? So the beam is behind the sword's current point in the swing? What color is the beam? Is it wider than the width of the sword? Is it straight glowing lines or is there flames/particles? If you email me a pic of buster sword I will try to mimic it.

Oh about the dota omnislash: Yes that is the same style I made the portal icon for. I really have no ideas how to depict it other than that. I think I will try the portal thing again and try to make it more readable. That is why I liked the braver I made--it is very readable.

[email protected]

Here is a second braver. I really dunno what you had in mind for the red/gold. Also here is another portal effort--maybe for omnislash. If you use both they will look kinda similar tho ;) And yet another portal effort...

Lol check this one out--squashed footman :D

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
