[Closed] Any tips for making Icons

Just curious if anyone has any good tips for easily and quickly making Icons for use in maxscripts. It seems to be an art form all it’s own.

for the most part I create mine with a combination of max renders and photoshop shape layers with layer styles. But sometimes it comes down to per pixel patience with the pencil tool and a lot of skill (which I’m sadly lacking)

That sounds about like what I try to do. Been thinking of trying the toon shader to see if I get better results.

Personally, I usually start with an icon found either in https://www.iconfinder.com/ or in google and then I edit it in photoshop.

i’ve just counted how many icons i’d drawn… 664…
at least it’s what i have in my backup

Does the world end when you make two more?
