Well the fact that it blend in the grass is proof enough that it is indeed a nature amulet

Almost forgot about this...
Here's the version with the outline:and the outline vs non-outline thumbs:for comparison purposes.

I somehow feel that if the bell was tilted to an angle instead of standing upright, then a significant amount detail can be added to enhance the image. For example, a view of the ellipse on the underside bell would already add definition to the overall shape.

well i tryed another one, another type

Jumpy,

#15 is very close. The texture on the left segment is a bit odd and there is no (or very little) texture on the right segment, so some minor polishing here could help it a little. The central vertical line is a tad too straight; perhaps you could break it in one point, as if someone had pressed their thumb against it (to emphasise the `soft and malleable' property.)

A lump of clay is actually not that easy to do. Here is an attempt I made this morning (using pure grey, i.e., dyeable): It looks a bit like a squished mushroom, though...

Perhaps some ideas from this attempt (roundishness, size, dents, bulges etc.) may help?

this one is better ?

Fate & Jumpy, they're both very great! But I have to say I prefer Fate's, but they're both so close... whichever isn't used should still be used for something

absolutely no offense you cannot even compare them

fate one is great in shape, volume, miror and so on

Regards and thanks

Hi,

for the record: Black Don's suggestions were instrumental in fixing the amulet graphics. (I couldn't credit him earlier since he vanished before I could ask for permission to do so.)

Hi,

for the record, the following icons are still unclaimed (difficulty levels are guesses):

• A mystical tablet
• An unwieldly-looking black sword
• An ingot (dyeable)
• An egg-shaped cactus (no visible roots or otherwise; it should look like a `cactus egg')

-- fate

it's lame, but maybe someone like Fother could fiddle with it a little

How big do you want the big awkward black sword? and would you like it dye-able rather then black? what kind of decorations? gold, gems...

Remember, icons are limited to 32x32. Graphics guidelines.

Ok I just wasn't sure if it was a map decoration or if it was an item. I will make about 4 drafts at 32x32

Thanks

ingot first try.
I'm listening your advices and subjections.
