Empire Ants

Top of the morning to ya, laddies! I needed some easier icons to make for a little while, so I bring to you a lovely Irishman whose videos have been helping me a lot lately. These come from his Instagram and feature the dyed hair he had a while back - usually green, but occasionally yellow or teal.


( I'm so happy that you're not afraid to be who you are, because that's one of the most important things a person has to overcome. )

One of the best parts of having decent internet now is being able to save images to icon a lot easier. (Seriously, guys, it used to take 4 hours to save a show's worth of screencaps and saving from Instagram took a day in the case of my Vanessa Morgan set.) I've apparently used this power to save way too many Instagram photos and make them into tiny squares.

These icons come from Markiplier's Instagram photos and feature only those with dyed hair - shades include red, blue, purple, pink, and yellow. A future set will feature only the undyed hair for those who want a little less neon in their icons.


( FLOOF THE HAIR FOR POWER! )

You ordered a dose of fluffy, green hair on a dashing Irish lad, right? No? Welp, I hate to inform you, but I don't accept returns.

This is one of a few upcoming sets featuring Seán McLoughlin (aka Jacksepticeye), whom I class up there with Markiplier as so YouTube famous he's basically the same as using an actor for pb. These in particular are sourced from general Google Image results, which were surprisingly unhelpful in finding video screenshots.

Antisepticeye is also featured heavily here, so expect to see some fake blood and creepy expressions interspersed with the adorableness.


( Move ye ball bastards! )

Markimoo has a lovely face and hair which makes me green with envy. Also, he makes a good pb. This is yet another set made with love for my parabatai. Bless Markiplier's use of decent lighting; it's a breath of fresh air compared to all the television caps I'm working with lately.


( I just thought random screaming would help me out. )

Here's something a bit off the beaten path for me, but I am nothing if not a doting parabatai. ;)

This set features Mark Fischbach, aka Markiplier, of YouTube fame. There are 21 gif icons followed by 114 icons made from stillframes of those gifs for a total of 135. Most of these are smiley or laughing, though there's a small amount of variety. I don't plan to do any more gifs, but I have quite a few photos saved to do another normal set later.


( What a bunch of ass baloney! )

Mulder and Scully in futuristic battle armour from one of my favourite X-Files episodes, 7.13: First Person Shooter. I've been playing the Bioshock franchise recently and it keeps making me think of this episode even though the armour's more like Fallout 4, so I wanted to do some icons. They're not all high quality, since I had to work with grainy DVD screencaps from the early 00's, but I like how most of them turned out.


( We came, we saw, we conquered. And if the taste of victory is sweet, the taste of virtual victory is not Sweet 'N Low, nor the bullets made of sugar. )
