Smudged Words

So this is the gorgeous Cush Jumbo who first appeared on Torchwood: Children of Earth this year on the BBC. I saw her, and thought wow, I have to icon her. So here she is, I love the expressions she pulls in this season and think she would make a really rather brilliant Angelina.

Last post for today! The best thing about sci-fi TV is that the actors have a lot of WTF faces. This guy is made for a next gen Weasley/Johnson spawn (Percy, not George, thank you), but I think he could be a good Dean as well. The pics are from The Sarah Jane Adventures.

I am almost done for today. Promise. My back log was huge! This girl is actually around twenty, but could pass for sixteen-ish, I think.

There's nothing creepier than people that use REAL PEOPLE as their PBs. Really. It's just strange. But - as an experiment I decided to try to icon one of "my boys", that is, a player from my soccer team of choice. Just to see if it would be enough for a set. There wasn't. But maybe somebody can use these for soccer purposes. Or something. Therefore this one is filed under "stock".

I tend to be asked to make an icon for a random NPC ever so often. Just one. Which is funny, because I can't exactly post one icon of a subject, and NPC icons are often harder to find, because you feel like you're getting drowned in icons when you look through the usual directories. Also, you don't want to steal a face that has awesome expressions, and make him or her useless in that particular game.

So, here's an idea. A post with random NPCs. Men, women, children. These will likely never be properly iconed by me, but I thought... an NPC icon post would be lovely. One that you can take a single icon from should you need it. So here it is.

So, Arsenal is my team. It was largely an accident, and I blame Millie. Fully. With that said, I somehow started collecting boy cuddles. And awesome goals. And well, then all I needed was a few wistful sighs, and I made these. They'll go in the stock category, thank you very much.

Okay. I have a confession. I seriously, seriously adore this actress and her expressions. In fact, it would make my day (week!) if someone were to use her. Celeste's an Australian actress and these caps are from Tarty Doris and I plan on making more icons of her.

Silvia Marty is this gorgeous Spanish actress whos hair I seriously envy. Gorgeous, red curls and a little smirk that - I think - would make a smashing Marietta. Or a Lily. Heck, anyone with red hair. There's not enough red-hair love out there.

I haven't opened Photoshop for months. I just... died. A bit. Then, one way or another I started seeing yummy pictures of food. So here it is; stock icons of food, drinks, fruit and sweets. Maybe I'll get back into PB iconing soon as well. All images are from one of the following: GettyImages, Fotolia, VeganFoodPics, BakeBakeBake and SuperSupper.

A relatively small batch of Andy Samberg icons. I love the expressions he makes, but I'm not too happy with the quality of caps I took. I'll keep an eye out for better ones.

Once upon a time there was a tv show for students and Young People on Saturdays called T4 with Alexa presenting. Sadly, like all good things (see 'Top Of The Pops') it was cancelled. So I decided to icon her anyway, because she is adorableness.

Before I started playing Hermione I researched curls. Because my number one pet peeve is people who use PBs that have fake curls for this type of character. And as it turned out, finding somebody who wasn't just naturally curly-haired, but also wasn't too pretty? Not an easy feat. This is the result.

During the festive season, there's always a plethora of old movies being re-run, and snuggling up to enjoy 'Sister Act 2: Back In The Habit' was (as always) a guilty sing-along pleasure. And then I spotted a very young Lauren Hill and knew I had to icon her. So enjoy!

I saw a picture of Brendan Fehr in long hair and went "omg, Justin". Then I realised that the icons of him in this hair are really scarce. There's a lot of photoshoot ones, but I am morally opposed to those kind of icons. So, here, from the first four episodes of season three.

I used to love Desperate Housewives. I'm not so crazy about the last few seasons, but the first were great. Here are some quotes. Credit jumbled_words or smudged_words, please. And comment. Cos I'd like to share the love.

As was recently pointed out, there isn't enough icons of George Eads. So here's erm, a lot more than planned of him from season seven of CSI. Icons taken from Google and CSI-Caps. I love the lighting in the series, so pretty.

What every icon journal needs is more hot, talented men. Who am I to stand in the way? Kele Okerke is the singer of the band 'Bloc Party' which is why so many of the icons have him doing a funny open-mouthed sort of look. But I kinda like the expressions.

Having a pregnant character gives you all kinds of opportunities to play with icons. These are made from images at Gettyimages and Fotolia. Simply gorgeous images, so easy to make icons from. I was looking for biracial pregnancy pics, since the expecting parents are Angelina Johnson and Percy Weasley, but pretty much all couple type pictures were of a black man and a white woman. Annoying.

M uses LMG as Marcus Flint in our game and I love looking at pictures of him. So a win win situation ; more icons and an excuse to icon him.

So, when I iconed Kristen Stewart in Land of Women I looked at Adam Brody and though "hmm... why, hello Michael!" And um, somehow I ended up picking up Michael Corner, and I wanted that Adam. Not the self-confidence gah-so-hot version that are on so many icons out there.

So I started there, and then worked my way over to The OC. Which I had never seen, because I have a hate towards TV shows with shiny houses and shiner people. I'm now four episodes in and totally into it. Am I late to the party or what?

I icon as I watch it, so be patient. This post will fill up. Slowly.
