I love the coloring and lighting for these icons! ♥ They're amazing. :)

Thank you! This was the week I went from being like "I wish I could do gradient backgrounds on Canva :(" to actually looking up if and how you could do gradient backgrounds on Canva, lol.

I love the low-contrast tone-in-tone coloring of #1 and #2, and the complementary look of #3.

Thank you! I was kind of trying to visually tell the story of Cobra Kai taking a more nuanced take on morality than The Karate Kid, where there were The Good Guys and The Bad Guys Which is not meant in a pejorative way towards TKK! I love both and think that both approaches worked well in each iteration of canon.

I did also include a tiiiiny bit of the red in Johnny's icon (as part of the yellow detail behind him) to show the potential for more shades of morality in his future.
