(points to profile) I'm clearly not qualified for either one of those. XD I just posted them because I thought they were strange (although, the operator job has been taken--the listing was removed from this week's paper). Fortunately, it seems as though the job at the miscellaneous-goods store (I'm not sure what else to call it) is working out well.

Thank you for your suggestions about the icons. Clow is actually supposed to be lighter than Yuuko--I wanted it to seem as though he was cut off from her, as he was in the original image. There's currently a watercolor texture on "soft light" over him; when I take it off, it appears as though he's standing next to her, which in itself is a nifty effect.



Do you think I should do that instead, and paint in a better background?

Also, here's the Sakura icon without the flower petals:



I'm trying to block out Syaoran's hair, since it's too spiky in this image--it looks very cartoon-like, even when I color it. I'm thinking that I'll either add in the panel where he's looking back at Sakura, or draw in some...wisteria. I'll definitely try to darken her eyes, though.
