Yes, I know but it was effortless to finish the full set and share it in case it will be needed in the future ;)

If you need any help just ask (i will have time tomorrow). That is for Part icon. As for the Body icon i don't know. There is one already but the proposed one got high level of consensus.
I prefer then to wait for more concise indications. Thank you for the help, actually what I need is just pointing out the route (path) inside Master to place the .svg file and with what specific name you want/need it. If overwritting a preexisting one then is easier but if a new icon then I need this help.

See this commit in PR 916. ickby had already added your old one.

I was just typing and @peterl94 responded. Anyway:

I noticed @ickby added Part and Group icon here:

https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/pull/916

Maybe best to wait for the PR to get merged and after just to replace the Part (potentially Body) icon(s).

P.S. BUT what about Group feature icon. ;) What does it do and did we somehow overlook it was intended to be a part of this icon challenge? I guess in a way a good thing as two ongoing efforts are usually a bit harder to achieve compared to single ones. :)

That PR adds a new global toolbar for the "Create Part" command and he also added the command for creating a standard group (a folder in the tree) to that toolbar. This is the icon he used: Group.svg

I see that useful right-click Group feature one can add to Tree view. I guess some could argue why not (in addition) Draft VisGroup. Maybe because features like Module would fit better on such toolbar in the future. ;)

Anyway i am happy consensus was build around Part icon. To me it i guess does make sense to try out new Body icon and see how it goes. As for Assembly icon. Too bad no new features for that in FreeCAD 0.17. ;) But the icon looks good and that in the end is something. As for the Group icon i guess proposals welcomed. ;)

For completeness sake, this is what the latest part icons look like in context.

Also, I misspoke about the Group icon. Evidently the icon I previously linked is not used for what I thought it was used for.
