any icon tutorials you want?

[silvercat17]

I'm planning on doing some tutorials for icons I've done and comic book icons in general. Are there any in specific people would like to see?

Here's the tutorials I'm already planning on doing:

• dealing with word balloons (comic icons)
• dealing with panel lines (comic icons)
• 
• 
• and

All my icons are here: https://silvercat17.dreamwidth.org/tag/icons

Tutorials so far:

• Speech Ballons part 1 (removing)
• Making readable text

Adoro tutorias de edição de inagens, ainda mais de ícones. Acho uma graça esse tipo de criação.

I would appreciate something on just adding text - picking colours that work, making it show up against multiple colours, what a sensible amount of text is.

Those are good ideas! I can totally do that

Anything in general about working with comic book icons would be great! Thanks for doing this!
