Photoshopping Royal Tiaras and Jewels 2

Lady K--
You have created a monster! What skill, what mastery, what fun to make fun of! I especially love the Poppy earrings--a very nice, understated evil touch!

Ok, I already see Thomas jumping in his chair with a chocolate bar in each hand. LadyK what can I say? Which piece of jewelry looks the worst? I don't know about the chocker, it is really, really bad...
This is great!

Oh please! Somebody shoot me now for I know I am going to say the most awful and ghastly thing!

...........I think I really like those earrings on Mary.

Block out the ghastly tiara (would look good on the fairy on top of the Christmas tree) and choker which would look lovely adorning the neck of someone's darling baby (labrador,smamoyd, huskey).

Something to do with her neck/carriage I think, and of course, her wonderful dark hair and eyes are set off marvelously by the gold.

And, chandelier earrings are all the rage now!

Hi everyone!

First comes first - this forum is awesome!!! Thank God there is something this good.

Now talking about this thread, I've noticed that most photoshopping is about wwww (who-will-ware-what). Although it is interesting, for exploring new usage of some tiaras, a real challenge is the their new appearance. Isn't it exciting to see how one tiara can change its appearance and a whole catacter? Since almost of them are made of parts that can be arranged and rearranged someone skillful enough could easily make a whole range of new tiaras out of just one! Not to mention combining parts of several tiaras or changing stones... In reality that is possible but hardly probbable since their owners are more interested in other 'royal' matters.

There are some great examples here already (thank you authors) but lets have a gallery of how-would-this-look-like, since that's the idea of this thread.

Great job.... especially as it shows an older Kate, with the Girls tiara.

Together, the three are ghastly! But, I can see the point about the poppy earrings. The choker, well, I've seen better. It looks like a fruit bowl to me. As for the Wurtenburg Star tiara--I don't really hate it (not like I do that second Spencer tiara or the Burmese tiara of QEII's) but when you combine all three--well, I just can't help but hate the look but LOVE the comments!!
Well done Lady K!
And Thomas, I love it when you release your insanity upon the world and idea of chopping off the stars of the WUurtenburg tiara is GREAT. The stars could become brooches (I think the would be a lovely accent piece for the tiara)--
Lady K--can you again work a little magic for us????

ACtually, I was looking at the pic again, and if you took the star shape off and left the beautiful rubies atop the tiara, it might be quite attractive! I know I would take it, anyway.

Dear Members,

Upon once again contemplating the masterpiece of sheer horror that at my gentle urging the noble Lady K has let loose upon the world, I cannot but be remined of the Wicked Step Mother whom I saw in Snow White when I was a child (yes Warren I too was once a little boy and no, I have never grown up) and it is the perfect moment when the WSM is getting ready to hand over the poisoned but oh so seductive apple to the innocent and gullible SW. The expression is perfect and the jewels a dead give away. A star for our Halloween Party has been born. Now who has the nerve to e mail this off to the Princess Mary???? Cheers.

Can someone please photoshop a picture of Princess Diana wearing the swan lake neckalace and the lover's knot tiara.

[GillW]

I recently saw a link on this group - somewhere! - to a portrait of 6 princesses (Madeleine, Maxima, Victoria, Mette-Marit, Mary & Mathilde)with four princes (Willem-Alexander, Carl Philip, Philippe and Haakon), all in very formal gear with the ladies in tiaras etc, but I can't remember where the thread was.

Can anyone pont me in the right direction please, and also any idea why the picture was taken? What event was it for?

Thanks a lot,

[ZandraRae]

Here is the picture you asked for GillW. The event was the 60th Birthday Celebration of Carl Gustav. Getty: http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums...9&d=1172154119

You are a star ZandraRae - that's the one!!
Millions of thanks,

[ZandraRae]

Warren!!! I need a huge favor. Can you post me a pic of the Baden Fringe Tiara, the Nine Prong Tiara and the one Madeleine wears all the time? Please. Like really close up ones OK?

[Warren]

You're sure to find pics of these tiaras in the various Swedish Royal Jewels threads.

In any case if this thingie is just not plain ugly would somebody please tell me what it. I will of course have to find that gorgeous drop dead Iranian emerald aigrette that I go into orbit over. Perhaps we could get or should I say corrumpt the Lady K into putting a turban and bejeweld fig leaf on Brad Pitt to show off the aigrette. I refer you to one of my naughtier postings, I am too exhausted now to look any further. It was in Indian Royal Jewels by the way. A marvelous and luscious thread indeed. Cheers.

Thomas's Turban-Crown Thingy

I'm not sure even Brad Pitt could pull off that thing in its original state. Maybe I'll try it on Guillaume or Felipe later-maybe it wouldn't look so horrid on their dark hair.
---I tried it. It still looked bad!---

However, I've transformed it, quite drastically, I think. I removed all the top part of the crown (the dome part), and kept the band. Then I removed the rows of pearls (I seem to do a lot of that ), and removed the dark spaces between the filigree work. It took me about five minutes of just staring at my laptop, saying "Thomas, what do you want me to do with this thing?" to get some creative ideas. The gold work was exquisite, and so by focusing on that, I took something..yuck.. and it turned into something pretty! I noticed the one, small emerald on the band, and repeated it a couple of times, for extra pretty. It's not dripping in diamonds, like I've done in the past, but I like it!

That's really quite exquisite work. What photo editing software do you have?
