These are amazing, and I'm so honored to be among the inspirations! I can definitely see which elements of my work you got inspired by and the same goes for the other makers too.

There's some awesome lighting and coloring going on in the sayuri_x set, and I especially love the first two. In the set inspired by me (AAAW FAITH ♥), I really love the first one especially and took it with credit. Love the deep purple and the lighting by texture. All the rest are very pretty too, I love the dramatic look of 7 and the softness of 8 and well in 6 the inspiration is probably the clearest since that's pretty much my favorite style : D

The whole nebari_rebel set is pure gorgeousness, and I can so see her in the b&w icons with lots of contrast. All the crops are lovely too.

I really love the crop and the text use in 13, and 16 is very creative and interesting in general - I love the darkness and the texture use a lot!

The lighting and colorings in 17-20 are all lovely and again the inspiration shines through well imo :)

Great job with this challenge!
