Manip - Memories from the betrothal (x2)
Title: Memories from the betrothal
Artist: Hakka ( prue84 )
Fandom: Star Trek (reboot)
Pairing: T'Pring/Uhura
Characters: T'Pring, Nyota Uhura, Hendorff, Gaila, Darwin, Hikaru Sulu, Leonard McCoy, Carol Marcus. An OC (Uhura's sister).
Rating: G
Tagline: Two captured moments of T'Pring and Nyota Uhura's betrothal ceremony.
About the manip: In a future post Beyond, where Spock accepts the ineluctable truth of being subject to James Kirk's gravitational pull and stops resisting, Uhura discovers that she really is meant to marry into Vulcan, just on the opposite site of the biological spectrum she planned.
Jim, Scotty, Chekov and cadet ensign Jaylah are somewhere trying to drink each other under the table. Spock is very embarrassed by his mate and is probably closed in some bathroom asking to his own reflection why again he decided to get himself lured by the captain's tempting mind after he and Nyota parted ways - and yes, perhaps why he let Nyota go in the first place.
Notes: Something thrown together for 2022 Uhuramonth.
Notes 2: The girl smiling at the arrival of the couple in the first manip is Cisley Saldana, Zoe's sister: I wanted to manip Zoe's mother as Uhura's mother on that woman raising the glass, but Asalia Nazaro has a very different body structure, and it felt disrespectful to place her head on a "fitting" body, when she's plus size. So I decided to include Zoe's sister and turn her into Uhura's sister.
Notes 3: In this house, Gaila is alive and eventually returns to the Enterprise (as hinted in the comic series), and Darwin and Carol (and 0178) weren't cancelled in the rush to erase all Into Darkness existence for Beyond (in this house we love Into Darkness, but it's has become a very controversial statement to make). I'm ready to fight on this. (ง'̀-'́)ง
Notes 4: Killjoys is basically a go-to for Star Trek manips. Seriously, take a look at the gallery at . When I've seen pics from this specific scene my mind went to T'Pring and/or Vulcans, but I didn't know how to use them. Actually, the purple/blue dress would be perfect for Amanda (she has a hairstyle that I'm sure Amanda, either TOS or Discovery, had) but, alas.
Tec stuffs (aka Behind The Manip): Foreword, at first it was just one manip, the second. It was a challenge but nothing was particularly harder. It did take me a good hour to hunt down Zoe and Kristin pics (and eventually I found that I had a better Zoe saved on and old Stock folder, duh!), especially Kristin was hard to find from that specific view/side: actresses tend to take pics either front, turning back, or side-view with head slightly turned to the camera.
The idea to turn the other characters into Star Trek characters came a day later, when I was actually starting with the manip (day before I researched pics and did a unrefined attempt to see if they fit). I'm actually pleased for how Cho looks - the perfect pic happened in the search first rows! - and Aisha Hinds/Darwin looks so hot.
The idea to make another piece - the first posted - came right one day before the date to post. I love how Uhura turned, very regal - it took me a while, and only a stock photo with all the logo plastered on it, but I found the perfect Zoe both for angle and facial look. I also love how T'Pring turned out, and I even managed to replicate TOS!T'Pring's eye shadow.
