Lovely 70s-ish background for both, and I love the lighting in 1, and the cool colors in 2 :)

I really like the glossy look on these, also the backgrounds are really cool :)

Both the icons looks great but the purple coloring and the bg of the Baby Yoda icon is so pretty.

Thank you so much! 💖

Love the texture choices on both of these :)

The bright lighting in 1 is really nice and I would love to know your secrets for the colouring on 2. I find blue/purple hues really tricky to work with but you've got such great balance here.

Thank you! 💖 I can't remember exactly what I did because I use GIMP & it doesn't save your steps like I know PS can save user 'actions.' Once you close & re-open your file it's blank (no undo/redo). I still have some of the layers in the GIMP doc & it looks like I first edited the cap into this base.
It was already pretty blue.

Probably using curves or brightness/sat/hue tool.

Besides curves & color balance, it looks like I added layers of soft light, screen and/or overlay of some purplish textures.
In the GIMP doc, one of the layers is my own texture (no credits required):

I used the purple part, and I used some of these blue & purple light textures from here:
