    Nice. I would make the hand in image 1 less black.
    And come on, those are no tyres for a dirt bike, those are street tyres ;)

    Why not have all of your art in one thread Instead of a new thread for each piece of art?

    Not sure how I feel about the cartoon biker against the real sky/clouds. Overall looks good.

    Looks good, only thing I could suggest is the steering handle is a bit further up and tyres changed to off road as previously mentioned. Other than that it looks good to me :)

    Good luck with the game

    Yes, @Jordeyy, please use this thread for all future art related to this game.

    What about working with @Goliath ? Did he quit or did you not pay him? Or is this none of my business and I should just leave it alone?

    when the icon is scaled down to the small icon you see on your device , you won't be able to tell the difference

    Make the handle of the bike in the icon less black and you have a good logo. The black really distracts me and ruins the overall feel of the logo.

    Check out the new moto game that is called "fearless wheels" or something. I like those icon. Maybe take some inspiration of that because in all honesty it doesn't look appealing to me as something I would buy. Just my two cents.

    It's very well done but I think you need to think who you are trying to target and who you want to target.

    All the best

    I looked at the icon of the game "fearless wheels" and I don't think it's as good as mine if I'm honest bro

    I don't think the issue is whether it's a better graphic than yours...

    The Fearless Wheels icon says the following to me: fun, easy to learn, silly, cartoon graphics, stunts. I imagine I'll be tilting a bike and going off big jumps and probably trying to score combos.

    Your icon says the following to me: hardcore, biking game?. I imagine I'll be riding a bike on the open road or managing a bike team or learning about bike gear.

    I haven't played either game so I'm not saying my guesses are correct at all. I'm saying (and I think @Elfizm was saying) that that's the "read" I get from your icon. I actually like your icon quite a bit, it just doesn't give me as clear a picture of what the game is.

    Off topic but I'm sorry, I like the fearless wheels icon a lot better. But I don't think you need to change yours, it's still good!
  • JordeyyJordeyy Member Posts: 409
    @GraphicWarehouse are the graphics good though ? " both the graphics " ?
  • GraphicWarehouseGraphicWarehouse Member Posts: 927
    Yeah it looks great! I am really surprised by the time and effort you are putting into this game, because when I first saw it I thought you were just going to publish the DBA template, but now it is really shaping up. I think your icon is better than Bike race's icon but I really like fearless wheels icon.

    Look how they stack up:

    I see what you are saying side by side , the fearless wheels icon looks realy good I think I might round the edges off the border so its a rounded square and then also add a bevel arround the edge so its nicer ,
    also have you got any tips to improve the icon and the biker ? And have Ýou got skype ?
  • JordeyyJordeyy Member Posts: 409
    Heres my icon with the changes i stated

    - Rounded edges and the bevel :)

    @GraphicWarehouse what do you think ?
  • GraphicWarehouseGraphicWarehouse Member Posts: 927
    Personally I like the first one better but I like your icon so why are you trying to change it? It may not be as good as fearless wheels imo but they probably had a huge budget on graphics, so the only thing I have with yours is that it doesn't look as fun as fearless wheels. Heck I might even give fearless wheels a try! So don't worry about your icon, the only recommendation I have it you use an orange-black color scheme to pop out of the bland app store colors like theirs do.

    I agree with GraphicWarehouse. The first icon with the bobble head/deformed biker looks the best. Your art is coming along nicely. Dare I say that from what I saw previously (which is good), if the same style from your icon were used throughout your game, it would be something else!


    *Edit

    I misunderstood about those 3 icon examples. I thought they were variants or your icon. Never mind. It's coming along nicely.
  • JordeyyJordeyy Member Posts: 409
    @GraphicWarehouse I'm trying to change it so it looks as best as I can make it, because the icon pulls the customer into looking at your game
  • dyllandyllan Member Posts: 35
    What did you use to create those images? I recommed you make the hands less black because they seem to blend too much into the handle bars and the tires more stubby because at the moment they don't look like dirt bike wheels they seem more like a road bike.
  • glyniusglynius Member Posts: 231
    Looks nice, i would use some more bright colors, looks dark now and i imagine that if you scaled it down, it will look even more dark. Also there is something strange with the steering wheel, it doesn't look good. Others that that, looks nice art.
  • ElfizmElfizm Member Posts: 489
    Hello

    I think I may done or said something that seems to change everyone's mind about the icon.

    Fearless wheels was only mentioned because I was attempting to give an example that the icon shows the atmosphere of the game.

    It's also simple and gets straight to point. A first impression.

    However your icon is good too. I haven't seen too much of your gameplay and style.

    So since I brought it thought I should bury it and get all focus on to how to make your icon look better and get the best first impression. Not comparing too different icons.

    Take care and all the best .
