Some icons I'm doing for somebody

Eh, just some icons I told someone I'd do for them. 48x48, an odd jump in size for icons, especially since I'm used to 32x32. Iron sword, gold, and blueprints, respectively.

Shouldn't the stacks of gold bars have self-shadows?

I like everything but the gold...I think its your color choices or something...

Edit: I recolored the top part with some new colors.

Well I don't like using outlines, but I thought it was useful for icons.
As for the shading for the gold, I dunno about the changes. I'll have to see what's needed first, I should have looked up references first. I don't really know how reflecting gold bars are, but either way I'll check up on it. As for self shadows, I tried that, but it looked better without it.

I preferred yours, to be honest, although you might have used too dark of a shade on the sides.
