I absolutely adore the vibrancy in these! The palette in 3 and 10 especially.

Your use of that palette to recolor these icons looks fantastic! Did you use masks? I'd love to know how you get it to look so sharp!

[aliensamba]

Thank you!

I use GIMP software for these icons.

I use a new layer for each color that I wanted from the palette. In the new layer, I paint over the part I like to be highlighted (example: the clothes). Then I set this to Darken/Multiply/Softlight/Color (whichever looks good). Then I duplicate the original cap, bring it to the top of the layer and set it to softlight. Sometimes I repeat this until I am satisfied with the colors.

For the sharpness: I sharpened it 2 times. I use Sharpen when the screencap is still in its original size. Then I used Unsharp Mask once it is in icon size.
