Hello.
I would like to make a request for five icons for the abilities of one of the units in my map. The unit to which the abilities belong to is of the Magnataur Reaver model. Magnataurs are denizens of Icecrown, and I would like to represent this or the "icy-aspect" of the Magnataur in the icons; thus, I would like the icons to have a whitish background/color scheme. For aesthetic purposes, I would like the icons to have the same "cartoonish-yet-detailed scheme that the original warcraft icons have".
Some pictures of Magnataurs:

The Ability Icons:
1) Brutal Strength
For this ability, I would like the icon to resemble this one: http://http://www.hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/icons/228, but with a whitish tint replacing the black and with a brown hand (for the hand of the Magnataur Reaver, which the hand in the icon would be representative of, is brown).
1a) Mighty Swing(Sub-ability)
This ability is added to the unit when he activates Brutal Strength. I would like it to show some "whoosh" of the unit's weapon, and, again, with a whitish background. The object in this icon would serve well as a base: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/resources_new/icons/304

2) Master Vagabond
This ability allows the unit to establish multiple little outposts around the map, at which he can regenerate health and mana. I would like the icon to emphasize the wanaderer-ness of the unit. I something of such sort in mind: The ladder Far Seer's "Far Sight" ability icon with a whitish - instead of reddish - tint, without the circular frame around the landscape image; and with the small sillhoute of a magnataur, preferably dark-bluish/black, traversing the landscape.

3) Frost Armor
This ability works like the ladder Lich's. I would like it to show the body of a Magnataur, white under flakes of snow, with a sort of snow-frosty-barrier around it.

4) Overpower
This ability makes the unit charge towards a location, pushing all units it collides with towards the location. I would like the icon to show some savagery of the Magnataur. Ideally, the icon would have a Magnataur towering over a weakling unit - like an ice troll or tuskar - in an aggressive stance - like it's about to strike at it with its weapon. I would like the icon to coincide with the action of the Magnataur charging forward so that it would be coherent with the effect of the ability.
These are all I request. You can take your time making the icons, if you will. Thanks.
