make unit look frozen

[Epicurus]

I want to make a unit look frozen when it is captured. The unit is being create in a new location so it doesn't need to change from unfrozen to frozen to unfrozen again. I just need a unit that looks frozen. I messed with the colors to make it look blue and changed its movement speed to 0. But I have a couple of questions.

Any way to make a lighter blue? I just made the colors of the unit 50, 50 255.

Can I stop the standing animation? He keeps turning his head and scratching ect. I want him to stop moving completely.

Thanks

I dont know about the blue, google it.
Instead of setting it's speed to 0 just stun the target, then set its animation speed to 0 (Animation - Change unit's animation speed)

Give it a Cold buff?

Better yet, give it a Freezing Breath buff. Or at least a Stun buff with a Freezing Breath animation.

How do you add a buff?

You need to set the buff as part of a spell, and get a dummy unit to cast that spell on the unit. Yes I know, it's annoying. But you cannot directly add buffs to units. Only via spells.

is there a way to make the buff stay perminately? Is it on the ability editor or trigger?

@Epicurus
Give it a duration of 99999.

When you want to remove it, use a trigger to remove buffs.

i think the trigger action is under unit- add buff
