Empire Ants

Daniel is a biracial Korean model who has also appeared in a few television shows and music videos throughout his life. Though he's thirteen or so now, these are from a few years ago, since I'm specifically dealing with a need for offspring-of-muses pbs.

All images from this half come from his Instagram account during the years 2014 through early 2016. (I did the colour edits on icons 54-59 myself; the original colours are in 52-53.)


( This kid is adorable okay. )

The following icon set is roughly 23MB, so tread with caution if your internet is slow or limited!

This was an intense project the likes of which I'm not sure I'll undertake again, but I wanted a few of these as icons for myself and once I started I couldn't just skip the rest... And that's how I ended up with a set of 250 gif icons from To All the Boys I've Loved Before. Oops?

Created with gifs by lisemeinengifs on tumblr.


( You'd rather make up a fantasy version of somebody in your head than be with a real person. )

So, I photoshopped pink hair onto some of my Vanessa Morgan icons because her role as Toni is severely lacking in smiling and silliness. These were mostly made for my own purposes, but anyone's welcome to use them.


( Hair colour edits are so tedious. )

I did a thing using the fancified posters I made. Here's one icon for each of the main characters in Roswell, New Mexico because I'm all for sharing the love of this show.


( Alien pods not included. Sorry, folks. )

This began with Alex and Michael, whose posters I fancified for journal layouts. (For usage examples, check out alexmanes and mikeguerin.) Then, it branched out into my incessant need to be a completionist and became an entire set of posters/graphics. I almost didn't share them, but I don't have muses for all these characters and there's no sense hoarding the pretties when maybe someone else can get use out of them.

So... here's one poster each for the main characters of Roswell, New Mexico, styled in sort of a paint brush reveal effect - for lack of better explanation. The images are 400x563 and ~500kb each, generally slightly less.

For the original promo posters used to create these, check out the imgur album I put together.

Created with love for my parabatai, who needs a more traditional Serpents jacket for her Cheryl. ♥ These are made from fourteen unique edits where I recoloured the red jacket from canon and feature a significant dose of Jughead.

For those of you who prefer Cheryl with the red jacket, never fear! That one will be included when I do the normal icon set from the episode. You can find that here.


( Everything looks good on me. )

So, here's the thing: I need Will Tudor without runes for a character, but I need the general look and emotional range from his role in Shadowhunters. The solution? Photoshop the crap out of my previous set! So, in case you ever thought you'd love to use Will in this role if only he didn't have the giant neck tattoo, your wishes have been granted. And if not... Well, hey, I still feel accomplished.

These use bases from hollow-art by users Lilium and Erchomai from episodes 2.11, 2.12, and 2.14. Just ignore the slight wonkiness on some of them. I did my best.


( You're always looking at me like I burn down animal shelters for fun and light my cigarettes with orphans. )

Frustrated with the apparent lack of Will Tudor icons which don't include the Shadowhunters runes, I set about fixing this issue myself. These are from random photoshoots, candids, etc. and his Instagram account which is surprisingly selfie-light. Some of these are edited to remove runes and... android goop? Idk, I never watched Being Human; I just know that's where the blue blooded one originates.


( Apparently, Will used to do prank calls to hotels. )

You know what the world needs? More icons of Serpents from Riverdale. *sage nod* That's my excuse for making this set of Rob Raco as Joaquin DeSantos in S1 and I'm sticking to it.

Created with screencaps from capping on which I spent more time than any sane person should painting out the CW logo and/or cropping to hide it as necessary. (No, really, I have become a pro at clone stamping!)

Icons occasionally feature Kevin Keller. Also, please pardon the inconsistent lighting and colouring; Riverdale's aesthetic and I do not get along when it comes to iconning.


( You wish, preppy. )
