   I've been trying to come up with another app icon in a cartoonish/anime style, but…I hate it. I feel defeated and I'm a terrible artist and I just want to go ride my bike now.

     I think this is what I'm going with for this set. I might fine tune the top ones a bit more, but I need to let it sit for a day and look at them with fresh eyes again. I'll probably try a thicker line weight for the line art.

     I still plan on trying to do a more flat style icon like our previous apps, but really wanted to do something like this first.

     More dramatic lighting definitely helps a lot. I don't love it yet, but at least I don't hate it anymore. Colors still need a lot of work. And not sure if I should introduce soft shadows and gradients or not. Probably should at least see how it looks.
