Looks like an encoding problem, not a font problem. Make sure your terminal is configured to use the UTF-8 encoding.

Most terminal programs come with a profile option, can you try making a new one and see if that resets your settings for you?

What is the process/commands you did to install the fonts?

Well I had another go tonight. Uninstalled almost every font. At one point my browser didnt have any fonts. Reinstalled a load of fonts but still my terminal looked a total mess. I then installed Kitty and all my fonts and icons are looking good... So its a urxvt issue. Ill dig about a bit mire when I get some tine.
