33 blue
67 human

Last one of my Aladdin sets! Will is African American and was 49 filming Aladdin.



( habibi, let me show you the dream )

95 Aladdin trailer and "Speechless" caps

What a great voice on this lad! Mena Massoud is Coptic Egyptian and identifies as Arab; he was 26 filming Aladdin.



( if only they'd look closer )

[23] Pokémon: Detective Pikachu stills and random trailer caps

HELLO I haven't made live action icons in an age but I loved Detective Pikachu so much and couldn't find icons. So here's a mini set.

Justice Smith's African American, Italian, and French Canadian, and was 21-22 during filming.

Teasers:


Stills and trailer caps being what they are, mooost of these are variations on surprise and/or apprehension.

( I should have gotten on that train. )

[136] Once Upon a Time 02x13 caps

Cuban/Chilean, thirty-nine in this episode. Is this guy ever happy? I just sort of realized I haven't iconed many dudes and poked around FC Tumblrs for ideas.

There might be a few doubleups/same cap but slightly different crops due to copypasta fail.

Teasers:


( 'Tiny'. My brothers used to call me that. )

[155] music video caps
[08] "Out of My Limit" (2012)
[20] "Heartbreak Girl" (2013)
[37] "Try Hard" (2013)
[05] "She Looks So Perfect" (2014)
[26] "Don't Stop" (2014)
[48] "Amnesia" (2014)
[11] "She's Kinda Hot" (2015)

Māori, Niuean, Scottish, and Irish; sixteen in "Out of my Limit" and going up from there, icons are in chronological order by video. I don't know why he's a superhero in "Don't Stop".

Discovery: I dislike making icons with mics and/or pop shields in people's faces even more than I dislike making icons of people looking into the camera.

( kei tei pehoa koe xx )

[60] Being Human 03x06 caps

Twenty-three; half Goan Indian, the other side's English and Austrian. Meaghan Rath's little brother! I hope he gets more roles that don't have him done up as an alien.

I also plan on iconing one of his season four appearances at a later date, but in a separate post because it's a very different look for him.

Teasers:


( It took Mom ten years to convince me that hamburgers came from cows. )

[28] total
[05] Reef'n'Beef stills
[21] Home and Away caps
[02] interview stills

Wiki claimed he's Māori at the time of posting and someone added Japanese afterwards. I can't find sauce on either but I'd believe the Māori part. Even though in some shots he looks oddly like my half Filipino, half white cousin. Twenty-two in Reef'n'Beef; twenty-three to twenty-five in Home and Away.

Teasers:


( I'll admit I'm looking for a Jonah Maiava PB )

[45] total
[07] Sione's Wedding (2006) caps
[11] Uso (2006) caps
[15] Outrageous Fortune (2009) caps
[07] Panic at Rock Island (2011) caps
[01] Sione's 2: Unfinished Business (2012) still
[03] Shortland Street stills
[01] interview still

Samoan; twenty-six in Sione's and Uso and going up from there. Sorry for the wildly variable quality.

Teasers:


( apparently he was once a Red Power Ranger! )

[50] The Internship caps

This is a Filipino icon blog now. (No, I'm kidding.) He was twenty-three in this film.

Teasers:


( I didn't really watch this so I don't have a quote for you )

[26] Dark Matter stills and a few behind the scenes, one interview, and a couple from True Justice I think (7 added February 26th 2016)

Filipino and twenty-seven. I will probably make more once Dark Matter airs here; I wanted to use him as a PB but didn't want to spoil myself too hard. (On the other hand, I'd like more chatty/happy icons of him instead of mostly menacing...)

Someone should use him as a brother for Dante Basco.

Teasers:


( If their enemy is even half as powerful as they believe, then they're doomed. )

All from Grease Live rehearsal stills, promotional photos, and behind the scenes photos. Dumping ground for these three until caps and more photos come out and I can make them more.

Teasers:


( Carly Rae Jepsen as Frenchy - Canadian, 30 - 9 icons )

( Jordan Fisher as Doody - black, 21 - 10 icons )

( Keke Palmer as Marty Maraschino - black, 22 - 16 icons )

[26] Grease Live rehearsal stills, promotional photos, and behind the scenes photos

He's Dominican, Venezuelan, and Spanish, and twenty-six. In some of the rehearsal photos he's got un-Kenickieish facial hair, jsyk. I liked the slight rewrites to the character.

Teasers:


( I don't run away from my mistakes. )

[40] Hamilton production photos, show photos, and photoshoots

Puerto Rican, thirty-five in the first year of Ham on Broadway. Only a few new things in here; I just thought I'd separate out his (and Pippa Soo's).

cupcake_graphics also has a Hamilton set!

Teasers:


( I am not throwing away my shot )

[83] Hamilton production photos, show photos, and photoshoots:
[17] Daveed Diggs as the Marquis de Lafayette and Thomas Jefferson
[14] Renée Elise Goldsberry as Angelica Schuyler Church
[12] Leslie Odom Jr. as Aaron Burr, sir
[10] Anthony Ramos as John Laurens and Philip Hamilton
[8] Christopher Jackson as George Washington
[8] Okieriete Onaodowan as Hercules Mulligan and James Madison
[11] Jasmine Cephas Jones as Margarita "Peggy" Schuyler Van Renssaelaer (4 added September 11th 2016)
[7] group + chorus

I know I don't usually post general canon sets here, but I really wanted to icon these guys and can't cap a stage show. So. Have some late 1700s to early 1800s costumed POC.

cupcake_graphics also has a Hamilton set!

EDIT: I'm separating out individuals when I hit twenty icons:

Phillipa Soo (20)

Lin-Manuel Miranda (40)

[217] What We Do in the Shadows stills and caps

Thirty-six at filming; half Māori (Te Whānau-ā-Apanui), half Jewish. Awkward faces abound! I adore this film not only because it's hilarious but also because it's filmed in my home city, so everything's a thousand times funnier because I've been there.

Teasers:


( Yeah, some of our clothes are from victims. You might bite someone and then you think, 'Oooh, those are some nice pants!' )

[50] Hawaii Five-0 04x17 caps

Booboo is Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Blackfoot, Russian, and Scottish, and was twenty when this episode aired, though if it was shot in 2013, he would have been nineteen at filming.

Teasers:


( there's blood in a few )

[25] Arrow 02x19 caps

Colombian, twenty-four or twenty-five depending on when his birthday is. Dear TV powers that be, please bring The Flash to New Zealand in a manner resembling timely.

If you want more, footlights iconed a lot of his appearances in The Flash, so has recadreuse, and Hollow Art has some sets.

Teasers:


( Are you getting a bad vibe off this guy? )

[13] Defiance season 1 caps

Chippewas of Thames First Nation, thirty-four. Not all of his scenes are here because once he starts showing up as a hallucination, it's often with overly dramatic lighting I couldn't cope with. He sort of reminds me of Blair Redford, or an adult Gale Hawthorne.

Teasers:


( Luke had a dark side. )

[183] Defiance season 1 caps

Sixty-one, Oneida, a very expressive mustache. I want him as my TV dad. Some of these are a bit blurry from when I was still getting the hang of Defiance lighting, sorry.

Teasers:


( Yeah, well, call me old-fashioned, but I believe in a fair fight. )

[97] Defiance season 1 caps

Plains Cree, honestly not sure how old he is. Not someone to use if you need him to crack a smile more than once in a blue moon, he's mostly just an angst bucket.

Teasers:


( I never cared about not being the favourite, or the second favourite, or the least favourite. )

[19] Haven 04x01 caps

He was thirty-four filming this season, and this icon set is brought to you by vague thoughts of playing him from between seasons. It is baby icon set night here on Glorafilia, though I guess they're not really babies considering I come from a site with a fifteen icon limit. He is also bearded in Perfect Plan, which has been iconed by whoat.

Teasers:


( Cheaper than a shrink. Alright, who's next? )

[90] Hawaii Five-0 02x14 caps

Dante Basco is Filipino and was thirty-seven at the time. Kuya sure grew up since Take the Lead! You'd be surprised at the number of characters of the day I have on my to-do list... No more from Hawaii Five-0, though - that interrogation lighting is going to give me nightmares for weeks. I was just feeling patriotic.

Teasers:


( HONOOOOOOOOOR )

[120] Continuum 01x03, 01x05, and 01x08 caps
[52] Continuum seasons 3-4 stills (added February 13th 2016)

Stephen Lobo is half-Iranian, half-Indian and was thirty-nine in first season. Somehow Kellog's become my favorite character? Totes the best approach to one way time travel, at least.

thehollowedartists has a set including some icons with facial hair.

Teasers:


( I like it here. I like the lifestyle, you know. I like the variety and the availability for, you know, the meats and other goodies. I know it's all going to change, but I'll probably be dead by then. )

[145] Pretty Little Liars 01x02 and 01x05 caps

Let me introduce you to half the American video game industry! Because y'all needed a WASPy dad who isn't in every action movie ever, didn't you? Nolan was forty in this season of Pretty Little Liars. I was planning to do all of his appearances but I was a little alarmed that I managed to do this many from two episodes... Some are a bit samefacey and I fully didn't realize until I'd uploaded, so, sorry. Hollow Art has some sets from later seasons if you're after more.

Teasers:


( You're not supposed to watch me so closely. )

[13] The Blue Rose promotional stills
I'm only really guessing he's in his thirties, just going off his 1995 Unitec graduation.

Teasers:


( I only slept with Vasha because you told me to. )
