The Sherlock manip masterpost
To start off, I will say this again:
I am not starting a witch-hunt and I am not saying making manips is bad. But, this is a masterpost of the manips that continually fool fans; they think these are real photographs and they are not.
Some times this happens because people post manips they haven’t made and don’t label them correctly. Other times, they were made simply to fool. *shrugs*
I’ll keep adding to this. And please, feel free to reblog and reference this as much as you want. And if you know the original source of the manip or if the manip is yours (and you can prove it) and want it taken off this post, please inform me and I’ll make a text link to the original post of your manip.
Here’s a new one, everyone! Thank you to sherlockstuff for pointing this out, because for the life of me, I COULD NOT remember where I had seen this photo before!
Even when I reblogged this I knew I had seen it somewhere. The original photo is from either a news article (I can’t remember~) or a tweet, but I’m pretty sure its from an article. I recall the owners of the place commenting on the large amount of breakfast plates they had to serve to Martin Freeman for the multiple takes in some of the last shots of Hounds of Baskerville. Here’s the original photo:
sherlockstuff’s reblog of the photo
This is not Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman. I’ve seen this manip getting reposted by other people recently. And this is the original photograph:
(A POST WITH THE ORIGINAL)
It’s actually a photograph of Jude Law and Ewan McGregor.
On this one, I had a VERY difficult time finding the original photographs, and even then, it’s a cropped image. But you’ll get the idea.
This is the combination of two photographs that had a little girl getting her picture taken with Benedict and Martin. See:
The original photographs.
I would provide links to the posts for these images, but the manip is all over the web so that point is moot. I also don’t know where to find better versions of the original photographs (this is the best I could find).
(PART OF A PHOTOSET FOUND HERE)
Not sure who made the manip, but it is part of a photoset linked above.
Benedict is actually not in that photograph. Amanda Abbington is in the original photograph.
(FOUND AT FREEMAN FANS LIVEJOURNAL)
Okay to start out, itsacrimescene makes OODLES of Sherlock manips, but they never fail to watermark them. They’re always watermarked. So these are easy to figure out. Here’s the two I see surface the most because people steal them from itsacrimescene’s tumblr and reposts them:
ORIGINAL POST OF MANIP (I don’t know the original photo sources. You’d have to ask itsacrimescene). :D
THE MANIP (see the watermark there?) THE ORIGINAL MANIP POST
THE ORIGINAL (This is resized smaller; I’m pretty sure the original is from a tweet from Mark Gatiss)
There’s a lot more from itsacrimescene, but they have EVERY RIGHT to post manips and have watermarked them accordingly. So please…stop stealing the manips and claiming they are legitimate photographs.
I have no idea where this manip came from. Feel free to inform me and I’ll credit accordingly.
The original photo. I found it HERE. As stated on the mentioned post, this is probably a photograph by Manuel Harlan. It’s from the theatre production of “Design for Living” which featured Andrew Scott, Tom Burke (pictured) and also Lisa Dillon.
This is probably the most recent manip that has been fooling everyone.
I do not know where this manip originated from. But I will tell you this: although that IS Benedict Cumbatch on the right, that is NOT Martin Freeman on the left. That is his head photoshopped onto the body of Jonny Lee Miller.
This was a promotional photo for the theatre production of Frankenstein that Benedict Cumberbatch and Jonny Lee Miller starred in. Many of you are newly acquainted with Jonny Lee Miller since he’ll be staring in CBS’ Elementary. He’s also been a guest star in Dexter.
Many thanks to wastingyourgum for the notice about this one!
MANIP FOUND HERE (the tags say they found it on Google, so who knows where it came from).
That IS Matt Smith. But Benedict Cumberbatch picture on the left…that’s just his head photoshopped onto Russell Tovey’s body.
ORIGINAL POST OF THIS IMAGE ON A PICSPAM
That’s it for now. I will update this accordingly, but it will not show back up on your dash, I will simple re-edit this post and announce the changes with a new post.
Once again, if any of these photographs or manips are yours and you don’t want them listed on here, please inform me. I’ll make changes and link to your internet presence if possible. Thank you.
