I need your opinion on this emerald icon...Which do you think is better and how can I improve it?

You're shading it as one entire entity. you should shade each facet individually as its own and not treat the whole thing as one item. Right now it looks like you took a shape and shaded it, then pasted the lines over it.

It doesn't have to be real. There are these things called the "boundaries of fantasy" and this fits well within them.

That's 'cause it's hard to choose when they all face the same problem :)

i like the far left and far right one. On the left one, add those white shines i showed you yesterday ^_^ And on the far right, make it so all the faces are clear so people can actknowledge the shape of it straight off.

Then add shines! :D <3

A diamond:

Think I'm going to redo the emerald to make it bigger and probably a different shape.

Diamonds should sparkle and look SEXAY! Yours looks like it's been covered with a thick layer of dust or something :(

I got that, it just wasn't funny.
Also, the diamond looks nice shape wise and layout but problem is that it doesn't sparkle, it sparkles in one area, when diamonds reflect light it hits everywhere on a diamond lighting the whole thing, that's why they are pretty.

hmm instead of using outlines, use high lights.. looks much better
