Honestly, I’ve been really enjoying making these, probably the most I’ve been excited to model something for months. So I exchanged some sleep for a faster turnaround :) Previous post here

Upd: here are the links to images on transparent backgrounds for creators to use on their pages: purple and green Artemis, 3D modeling

Artemis: icon
Looking at their logo, I assumed the name was related to the hunting goddess, so this icon just had to be a quiver. It holds 7 arrows for good luck and is partially draped over to signify the app’s unfinished state, and as a nod to how the goddess herself is often depicted clothed in a flowing toga-type garment.

And since the current icon uses the pride flag as its background, I figured Artemis would definitely wear a pride pin on her quiver. And besides the original color scheme I also stumbled upon a fun-looking natural colorway. Plus a similarly cosy purple version :)

Here’s the logo alone, btw. Sorry I changed it a bit, but those two thinner lines weren’t working that well for the quiver piece imo.
@hariette, what do you think?

Urban Details: icon
So this one took the most time. You have no idea how many different buildings and road arrangements I went through :)

It’s meant for a community that I started which aims to celebrate various interesting details about cities, from tiny local Easter eggs to city-encompassing infrastructure projects. Just stuff that makes life either better or more fun.

The icon turned out to have some serious /fuckcars vibe, but I guess it fits well enough. I got a few interesting lighting setups while experimenting with the model, so I included a night scene as well.

3D Modeling: icon
I made a quick icon for this community the last time, but had a better idea and had to try it out. I think it encompasses the topic way better than before.
@lavender, I summon thee to check out the updated icon :)

Want one?
Again, if you’re the owner of a kbin community and would like to have a similar icon, comment here to discuss it. I’m mostly making these during my free time on weekends, so I probably won’t be able to make more than a couple pieces a week in the future.

I commented below to have some of the icons displayed inline, so that you don’t have to click every link. Is that more convenient? Let me know if it clutters the comments and I should delete those.

    woah, I saw your work in @JewelryDesign the other day and now here you are!! These are amazing! (although I feel slightly compelled to say that Artemis does have an official logo and it is not this, since I’m helping test Artemis and I take branding kind of seriously) But these are incredible! I would subscribe to a magazine simply called /m/3dkbinicons haha

      Well, I only simplified the arrow shaft a bit, since those two thinner lines were looking a bit too noisy and less readable on a smaller icon. Think how there were different variations of Apollo’s little dude.
      But in general, and that’s just my personal opinion, those two thin lines just bug me for some reason.
