I still need to add/ work on some of these, feedback would be much appreciated.

  1. In terms of pure style and visual clarity, these are great.

    Contextually, they're not quite as clear, but they have tons of potential.

    In terms of direction, I think the "lounging dude" is exceptionally succesful. Can he be used to harmonize all your pictograms (on the laptop, with a remote, eating, etc.)

    This could develop a really elegant visual framework for you.

    Your laptop is also really nicely resolved, but the type on screen feels like a cheat.

    Movies are also great, and proves that you can use obsolete tech (vhs tape) and still be clear about what you're representing.

    These have huge potential. Hands on knees dude is also really good. A variety of cool poses will make this an amazing set.

    Good work.

  2. I really like the distillation of detail you chose to represent. I think it's one of the hardest parts of making pictograms. I like the execution of the laptop, but the proportion seems a little too square...consider making it more rectangular. I feel like you'll really nail it then.
