I have an Alice in Wonderland themed icon set I'm working on and need ideas

  1. Sooo... Yeah.
    I was browsing the DLC for Maker MV on Steam and saw an Alice in Wonderland music pack, and I have always adored AiW, so I went looking for tiles/sprites/whatever related to it and ultimately came up with nothing, so I decided to make an iconset which I'll post on here once it's finished. However, I'm lacking in the idea department.

    I've made a storybook, the Mad Hatter's hat, the DRINK ME bottle, a clock, and the doorknob all as icons as well as a full deck of cards.

    Anybody want to throw out some ideas as to what should be in the set? Not really sure if this fits for the 'resource support' section, but it's the closest I could think of.

    Here's what I have so far, the drop down between the top layer of cards and the other icons are because I'm doing each suite. Went all out on the ace of hearts, and lackluster with the others, lol.

  2. Consider how the icons would be used. Items, Equipment, Skills.
    Lots of food items:
    Tea cups and Cakes. Oysters. Pepper. Mor Pepper. Moar Pepper. Andmore Pepper. The Queen's Tarts. White roses, Red paint.
    There's the Vorpel Blade. Flamingo Mallets. The Carpenter's Hammer, I suppose.
    You've got the drink that makes you small, but not the mushrooms that make you big.

    If you're feeling creative you can make senses, Wonderland's currency. Common sense. Talking sense. Talking non-sense. Yue C. And all the other letters of the alphabet except U. Since U are always hear, and hearing is a different sense on it's own, and even sometimes nevermore to the deaf, but considered always A-round to the mad. That's why Yue U's are the black sheep of the family because they make more sense than cents. But don't blame them for sticking up their noses at everything. Yue wood put off airs too when burning N sense. I'd wager that the caterpillar smokes it all the time, but I don't want to gamble away my common sense just to try some. If I could pay any sort of attention I would, but I have to make deals with Eye Wood instead because I've been saving for a house of my own. The real estate in wonderland is literally a house of cards since the queen banned crypto currencies once tax returns meant she'd have to pay attention back. Twice now, instead of printing more, she declared that everyone fence for himself using whatever Yue C. And since caterpillars eventually become some one else, it's always someone else's money they blow away.
  3. Update of what I've got, it's not much further along because personal life and stuff, but yeah... I'm aligning them with the base iconset for MV, which is why they're in the order they're in. Doing each icon individually with Pixly on Android, then transferring to my PC and putting them on the sheet I have.

  4. This doesn't really belong here. I get that you're asking for help involving a resource, but you aren't trying to find one and you're not asking someone else to make one.

    You guys scare me when you move threads :aswt:

    My bad, though, noted for future reference.
  6. Nothing to be scared of, we're just keeping things organized and trying to give everyone the best chance at getting the help they've asked for. The blue text is a macro so we don't have to type it out over and over, and the blue just means "I'm speaking as a mod now, not as a normal forum member". You're only in trouble if you get warning points or a red message. We do this stuff so often that we usually can't remember who we moderated seconds after doing it. All we care about is that people try.
