Thanks, I'm glad you like it :] I just remember the layer mask technique I used to do when I'm CGing so I tried those out and it works like a wonder :D

I still have a lot to learn though. There's so many great iconer out there in LJ making jealous XD For instance, Risa (remember her from DA?) and Lil.. their graphics is like whoa!! XD this is probably rubbish if you compare it to their works..
