hee, I don't think monochrome is a particular strength of mine, but I do believe I have the PDF for the Villanelle icon, so I'll have a look at writing something up (after I'm done with the comics battle eep!).
For the Batwoman icon, I remember doing a lot of individual sharpening where I felt it was needed(tips of cloak, weapon, boots, hair), and then highlighting the red parts with some soft light to make them stand out more.
Hah, and for cropping it's about squishing as much as possible into every corner and side of the icon? Combined with my eternal lust for hand and hairporn? *hands* Oviedo did a cropping guide way back when, so you might as well go learn from the master.
