Jun. 3, 2008 | 12:36 PM smokinjoeevil responds:

Thanks!


Jun. 2, 2008 | 11:36 AM Alfie says:

Wow!
I'm sainting them now.


Jun. 2, 2008 | 11:39 AM jobbob1 says:

those kick ass! they should be used as official icons

Jun. 3, 2008 | 1:51 PM smokinjoeevil responds:

I'd definitely stop depositing experience at the folding chair level... that's for sure!


Jun. 2, 2008 | 11:51 AM Alfie says:

Ah crap.
These icons are wacky, mind giving them giving them to me in mod?


Jun. 2, 2008 | 11:58 AM Tygrathor says:

Awsome how did u make them? I like the flaming guitar.

Jun. 3, 2008 | 12:37 PM smokinjoeevil responds:

I drew them large-scale in Flash (to make use of the vector tools, which I prefer over Photoshop's), then screen-capped them and pasted them into Photoshop to add the background and finishing touches (like the lens-flare and some shading elements).


Jun. 3, 2008 | 2:16 PM hippl5 says:

They look really good, almost as if the artist who made the NG ones did these. The only minor complaint here, is the blur on the pimp staff.

Jun. 3, 2008 | 3:50 PM smokinjoeevil responds:

I think the "blur" is more just my hack-shading job on the gold bits at the top.


Jun. 3, 2008 | 3:43 PM Alfie says:

Can I use your banner?

Jun. 3, 2008 | 3:51 PM smokinjoeevil responds:

Absolutely!


Jun. 6, 2008 | 6:43 PM solardave says:

Great icons, except not everything has to have a shiny glint. I don't think the bone particularly needs a glint as it isn't metal but all looks good!

Jun. 6, 2008 | 9:43 PM smokinjoeevil responds:

Yeah, I just kept using a templatedPSD file of the auras, which had the lens-flare built into it as one of the layers. So, I ended up using it on each just because it was there... which was a bad reason to do it.

Thanks for the feedback!


Jun. 7, 2008 | 7:41 AM DarkKingBernard says:

Awesome work i just want:
The Gun in the Evil and Dark aura
The Tazer on the Mod aura and if you can,put the Spas 12 Shotgun in Evil and Dark aura.

They would look great.

Jun. 8, 2008 | 4:16 PM smokinjoeevil responds:

I actually have the original art-work, each in a "template" of sorts that contains all of the backgrounds/auras. It wouldn't be difficult at all to customize them as you asked. I'll see about getting them up somewhere and PM you the details.


Jun. 8, 2008 | 9:57 AM Sakros says:

They're really awesome and cool!!

Jun. 8, 2008 | 4:15 PM smokinjoeevil responds:

Thanks.


Jun. 8, 2008 | 12:42 PM Eddie says:

So, did you draw these?

Jun. 8, 2008 | 4:15 PM smokinjoeevil responds:

So... yes I did.


Jun. 9, 2008 | 12:48 PM Deadchick says:

Jun. 30, 2008 | 2:41 PM smokinjoeevil responds:

Thanks... I tried.


Jun. 26, 2008 | 10:25 PM Iron-Hampster says:

you should make an RPG


Jun. 29, 2008 | 1:43 AM JoSilver says:

well just about all my favorite implents of death are here... except for a rubber chicken....

Jun. 30, 2008 | 2:41 PM smokinjoeevil responds:

That's funny. I actually considered doing a rubber chicken. That, and a spork would be perfect additions...


Jun. 29, 2008 | 1:19 PM Eddie says:

Is it possible to get the PSD file with the icons separated from the background?

Jun. 30, 2008 | 2:40 PM smokinjoeevil responds:

Yes, yes it is. I have exactly such a file. It is saved in Photoshop 7 format.


Jun. 30, 2008 | 4:22 PM Eddie says:

Can I get it? Lol. If you don't want to give me it, can you at least give me those icons with the Neutral background?


Jul. 21, 2008 | 11:42 AM MyBlacker says:

good work man! love the flaming guitar and the tazer gun.


Jul. 21, 2008 | 7:54 PM El-Presidente says:

I really like yours, you captured the look of Newgrounds's ones. I replied to your thread, I made the umbrella. You can fuck around with it if you want, and I can send you the .fla if you'd like.

Jul. 21, 2008 | 8:46 PM smokinjoeevil responds:

I'd be happy to include it in the icon-maker project I'm working on... in fact I just thought about the fact that I should probably make a News Post about it!

At any rate, if you want to get me the FLA I'll include your NG account name in the mouse-over derscription of the umbrella. You can either PM me a link to the uploaded file on a site like rapid-share, or I can PM you an e-mail account to send it to.

Thanks for the reply!


Aug. 1, 2008 | 11:04 PM Thracian says:

Nice work. The flaming guitar is so awesome...


Aug. 10, 2008 | 10:27 AM B-to-the-B says:
