Lovely colouring work! *___* I've never been able to work up the courage to attempt that, eheh.
Photoshop is fabulous once you get over the trauma. The only thing I would mention as feedback - which you can ignore, because hey, I don't know you and my PS skills are kinda non-existant XD - is that sometimes the effects and brushes you used detract/are invasive to the actual image. Like in 16, personally I would either erase the parts of the brush that're covering Hikaru face a bit or use a different blend mode (or both). But that's personal preference, obviously! What brush did you use for the top part of 16, btw? It's really pretty.
Photoshop is fabulous = how true. trauma = eagerly waiting for it to be over. X_X" Courage for coloring = nonexistent (I had to take drugs)
All of these icons had to be redone over and over just because I couldn't decide what I wanted to do. -_-" Or maybe just because I'm a freak. Yeah I was a bit nervous posting because I've colored most of these icons. @_@"
Hehehhe as for comments on how I made them are v. welcome. I agree with you that most of the time the garnishes need to be obsessively managed so they will help the base image. You can use textures instead if brushes don't do the job. 16 was difficult because the picture was already colored and I wanted a sort of...watercolor bleeding something like that effect (with flowers). -_-" I hope you can catch my drift. No brushes were used just textures with diff blend modes. Set that flora texture to linear burn. Oh, it's from tragic_icons if you're interested.
