this tinderbox is gonna blow in your face

This month's challenge at [livejournal.com profile] picspammy is Favorite People, and for anyone who's been on my f-list for longer than a week, this one's kind of a no-brainer. There are 37 HUGE images in this thing, so if you have dial-up, stay FAR, FAR away.

Katie McGrath





Photoshoots











Merlin Cast Video Diary






Merlin Promo Pics and Stills


















Merlin Screencaps 1x01 - 1x12




























Caps from [livejournal.com profile] awakencordy, [livejournal.com profile] firthgal, and [livejournal.com profile] _becca84_, stills from katie-mcgrath.com, caps of Katie's glasses of sex by me.

It took me forever and a day to clean and color these, so please don't run off and use them for graphics and such.




Despite this taking up, like, five hours, I kind of want to do it for Colin and Bradley now. WOULD THAT BE TOTALLY RIDICULOUS?

HER FACE IN THAT CAP, FOR SERIOUS. That scene is UST-ish and full of warm, protective feelings, but THAT CAP. She seriously looks like she wants to STAB SOMEONE WITH HER SHOE. KATIE MCGRATH'S TRUE FEELINGS ABOUT BRADLEY BREAK THROUGH FOR A MOMENT.

There would usually be a line about Katie getting out her Bat O' Terror and hunting you down here, but you are YOU, so whatever, you get a free pass. Also, YOU FINALLY HAVE A MERLIN ICON, I SEE.

Oh, she really does! This is totally awesome, since I am in love with Jennifer Connelly. ♥

And thank you! I am seriously consider tackling the rest of the cast, because I HAVE NOW REMEMBERED HOW MUCH FUN PICSPAMMING ATTRACTIVE PEOPLE IS.

[identity profile] lovestories.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:15 pm (UTC)(link)
SHE IS SO TERRIBLY ATTRACTIVE, IS SHE NOT?

WHAT? DDDD: BLASPHEMY.

[identity profile] futuresoon.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:16 pm (UTC)(link)
But but, it's not really an icon you could use for episode ramblings, unless an episode was filled with scary Morgana, which I suppose could actually happen. STILL, I TOTALLY NEED ONE WITH MERLIN AND/OR ARTHUR. And it is good to know that Katie is not going to end me; I would prefer to continue for some time.

This is epic. And it makes me want to icon those scenes with the CAPE.

I would just like to thank you for such a fantastic picspam. \O/

[identity profile] lovestories.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooooh, me too. I would totally go gay for Katie McGrath. ♥

IDEK, THEY JUST HAVE SO MANY CAPS. I think I might try to tackle the project during our Winter Break, though. IT WOULD CERTAINLY BE ENTERTAINING.

[identity profile] lovestories.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Er, I am afraid I am not much help here. Mostly because my advice is: FIND FAVORITE SCENE, MAKE CAP, FORM FANCY ICON. Ta da! There does not even need to be text.

[identity profile] lovestories.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
I KNOOOOW. KATIE MCGRATH/ME IS MY TRUE OTP.

[identity profile] futuresoon.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
I am just now starting to realize that icons do not require text, but it's scary. HOW WILL THEY KNOW WHAT THE ICON MEANS.

[identity profile] lovestories.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
You know what, she does! I also think she looks like Keira Knightley, and Lucy Griffiths, and [livejournal.com profile] cloverdilly mentioned Jennifer Connelly up above, too.

Katie is the secret lovechild of a multitude of attractive stars, apparently.

[identity profile] lovestories.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
I could never forget 1x10 Morgana! SO FIERCE AND GORGEOUS.

[identity profile] lovestories.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:26 pm (UTC)(link)
THE ICON DOES NOT HAVE TO HAVE MEANING. Being pretty is good enough!

[identity profile] lovestories.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you! :D

[identity profile] lovestories.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:28 pm (UTC)(link)
AJDKFA;FJDA;FJ;DALJ ME TOO.

[identity profile] lovestories.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I EAGERLY AWAIT THE EPIC WIN YOUR PICSPAM SHALL BE.

(I THINK I MIGHT DO BRADLEY, IF JUST BECAUSE I HAVE THE INSANE URGE TO PICSPAM DIS/CONNECTED. AND MAKE .GIFS FEATURING BEN THE MANWHORE.)

I AM 100% BEHIND THIS SENTIMENT

I can't write with Katie with anyone (except with the OC I made up for her for the wedding!RPF)! IT'S SO ANNOYING. DDD:

AHHHHHH, WE SHALL SEE.

[identity profile] lovestories.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I know, right? KATIE IS THE FIERCEST AND PRETTIEST PERSON EVARRRR.

[identity profile] lovestories.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Guh, she is. <3

RESOLVED.

[identity profile] thisissirius.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
IT IS CURRENTLY COLIN, BRADLEY AND COLIN&BRADLEY. BUT FEEL FREE TO DO A BRADLEY PICSPAM TOO AND I SHALL LINKLINKLINK :D

OMG I WOULD NEVER SAY NO

fjdkjfklds. THAT IS SO SAD D: I LOVE WRITING KATIE. SHE IS VERY AWESOME.

[identity profile] lovestories.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I DID NOT REALIZE HOW MUCH I LOVED MERLIN/MORGANA UNTIL THIS PICSPAM, JESUS CHRIST.

Colin being tall and lanky and CHEEKBONES, while Katie is standing there with her dark, billowing hair of GORGEOUS and mesmeric cleavage. THEY ARE THE MOST AESTHETICALLY PLEASING COUPLE ON THIS SHOW, I SWEAR.

[identity profile] lovestories.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:42 pm (UTC)(link)
I think I shall! :D

[identity profile] lovestories.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm extremely partial to the blue and purple dress of Evil Plotting, but fighting outfit with magnificent accessories comes in at a close second.

[identity profile] lovestories.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 09:46 pm (UTC)(link)
ILU TOO.

I overwhelmed myself with the epic of this thing. When I was done, I was like, "WHOA, WHERE DID THESE 37 IMAGES COME FROM?" I am, however, totally proud that I ended up with two non-blurry screencaps of the the Glasses!
