FULL ICON TUTORIAL: Violet Baudelaire

Making this icon in PS7:

Very Very Short and Simple icon tutorial for PS + Blend Modes reference table.

How to make many different icons similar to the one I’m using in just a few *very* easy steps in Photoshop 7. This can also act as a guide to blend modes.

I'd love to know if you found this useful. And if you have any questions/criticism, that's welcome too. :)

FULL ICON TUTORIAL for PS7: Already Burning (Faramir)

This tutorial assumes you know the names of the tools, what Blend modes are, etc, but it’s fairly straightforward.
