Ask the maker 2.0

[aida_rose]

Happy New Year, icon_talk!

As promised, it's time for our second round of Ask the Maker!Here you'll get the chance to ask icon makers who sign up, questions about their icons/graphics. You can ask for tutorials, guides/walk through, or simply ask a question regarding their work so the makers can compile a Q&A post, with the answers to all the questions

Oh wow, I was just thinking of doing something like this, but on my own! So happy to see this is happening.

Username and where I post my work: boxed
What can we request from you (tutorials, Q&A, walk through, other (specify)?: Tutorials! Q&A! Stuff you are curious about!
Can we hotlink your icons?: Sure.
Anything else?: Tutorials/walkthroughs for wallpapers might be a bit more difficult, but I'd be happy to answer questions relating to how I've done certain elements/my overall process.

Hey (:

Can you make tuts for any of these?

Hi! I just wanted to let you know I did some simple tutorials for the first two icons you requested. You can find them here. :)

I'm curious about your colouring because it always seems so natural, but there's always a bit of a kick!

also would you describe yourself as a 'crop and colour' maker or something else?

hi, I just have one question! HOW ARE YOU SO AWESOME? no, really I want to know!:p

I was curious about how you get that lovely muted coloring that you do...
Any tips?

These two icons in particular, but in general...how do you get that muted look?
