Such a colourful set!Negative space+two colours is so creative,seriously love the idea.Even the circles one,amazing!Floral is cute and full body looks great too!My favourite is yellow,the crop, the brightness of it-awesome!

Thank you!

I'm partial to the yellow as well. The full body one was a new technique for me, trying to hold on to the background lineart if not the color, so I'm glad it turned out well!

Negative space started with a really lucky scan, but it also took a surprising amount of work to get the colors to work right. Something similar with circles—I really wanted to do something with that character because of how his powers tend to be drawn, but finding the right scan and making it look good on an icon was complicated. And I had trouble getting floral to work well, so I'm glad that you like that one!

I really like Yellow, Full body and Floral, as well as the alts 3 and 4, and 11.

Great compositions in all of them!

Thank you!

Floral in particular was really hard to get right, and I went through a bunch of ideas for yellow.

I really love how vibrant the coloring and the negative space in this set! My favorites are Neg Space+2 colors, Full Body, Circle, Yellow, Border/Frame (super creative!) and Upside Down

Adding onto the love for the creativity of the Negative Space + 2 Color one. I also quite like the composition of Full Body and Upside Down.
