Someone asked for an ironish Naga, Hmm, I dont know if it was made, but I think it should look like this: (I have mine red eyes, and its hard to see its ironish, but if you got a pic of the normal its easy to see, thats why i include a origional and an ironish(Request can be found at page 3))
Ironish:

Why not try? i went straight into freehand and look what i made? I thought i was going to be crap as well especially since ive never iconed before.

You are right, I think ill try tomorrow (Its soon midnight...) Ill be up in 12 hours (What? I need to sleep )

hehe rest well, even if you don't do full on freehand (like just add some freehand things to an existing icon) then that's fine.

 

[free_killing]

But, how should i be good at freehand, when im not good at painting on a paper?

 

[kingbdogz]

Well you don't necessarily need to be a good painter, im a shit painter, on the other hand im an awesome drawer. im 13 and my art teacher says im better then nearly all yr 11's and some yr 12's. Really all you need to start off with is studying other icons, see where shadows are added and where lighting's and highlights are made. Study them for a while then try making a blob, just get a colour then burn and highlight it until i looks slimy and round.

not bad, what program you working with. because i beleive there is a actual frozen border/layer that you can use to help. just use the lasso tool. then border it and put a layer over it then merge all layers
