she’s beautiful!
February 13, 2012 at 12:51 am
Thanks!

Hey Jirka!
I’ve been checking your works, they’re AWESOME! All of them… I started a graphic design course this year, and I’d like to tell you that you became a strong reference to me (:
Just for curiosity, what tools have you used to manipulate those amazing Disney characters’ portraits?
April 2, 2012 at 4:10 pm
Hey Giovanna! Thanks, I’m glad you like my work. It’s all done in Adobe Photoshop
February 12, 2012 at 11:04 pm
She is really beautiful. I continue to LOVE your work on these Disney characters. Awesome job. Keep it up…PLEASE.
February 13, 2012 at 12:50 am
Thank you! I will try my best to keep finding time for these
February 13, 2012 at 4:14 am
AHHHH!!!! SHE’S SO BEAUTIFUL!! Excellent job as usual! You’re just so amazing. I hope you do Wendy, Princess Kida, or Lilo next. Take all the time you need!
February 13, 2012 at 11:42 am
Thank you!
February 13, 2012 at 7:22 am
Wow! I never believe that disney´s jane was atracctive, you just proved me wrong
AMAZING JOB!
February 13, 2012 at 11:42 am
Thanks
February 13, 2012 at 6:16 pm
Stunning work! keep it up!
February 14, 2012 at 2:33 am
Thanks
February 13, 2012 at 11:14 pm
This is amazing! I’m so happy you still have time to add to this magnificent work!
February 14, 2012 at 12:42 am
how long does it take for you to do these?
February 14, 2012 at 2:32 am
Hours! And I usually don’t finish my pieces till days or weeks later.
February 14, 2012 at 6:29 pm
well its worth it i look forward to seeing your next pieces
February 14, 2012 at 12:42 am
very fascinating by the way
February 14, 2012 at 2:48 am
Oh, I agree with the other commenter – would love to see Lilo maybe? And haha, as for the new girl in Brave, my bestie is already her real life counterpart! I teased her about that from the moment I first saw the new disney girl – that they had made her into the new disney “princess”! lol LOVE your work!! Can’t wait to see what you do next!
February 14, 2012 at 3:45 am
Looks like Ashley Tisdale, sorta.
February 14, 2012 at 6:50 am
This is one of my favorites out of your series so far. She looks so amazing, just like in the movie! Are you planning on doing the princes?
February 16, 2012 at 6:24 pm
Thank you! But I’m not planning to do the princes.
February 14, 2012 at 4:09 pm
Look almost EXACTLY like Ashley Tisdale. She’s so beautiful and I am so impressed. Great, GREAT job.

February 14, 2012 at 4:53 pm
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEAAAAAAAAASSSSE DO THE MALES! I don’t care if it’s next year or tomorrow, please please PLEASE get around to it. I’m begging you. Tarzan, Aladdin, Jafar, Shang, and Eric are some I would love to see. And again, it doesn’t have to be in the near future, just maybe whenever you’re bored on a Friday and you’ve done all the females you could get around to it. Your work is astounding, thanks for sharing with the world.
February 14, 2012 at 11:15 pm
Jane looked so silly in Tarzan but she looks really beautiful now.
February 14, 2012 at 11:51 pm
Really great! It would really be cool to see the male characters in human form as well.
February 17, 2012 at 1:18 am
She’s so beautiful!! This is probably my favorite so far. It looks just like her! Please keep them coming!
February 17, 2012 at 12:23 pm
Excellent work!! If you could do Tinkerbell, you’d make my day.
February 24, 2012 at 12:36 pm
Thanks! Hopefully I will find time for her in the future
February 19, 2012 at 2:52 am
I think she looks really pretty you are very talented. I was wondering if you were ever going to do the prince’s of Disney…there was another guy who did some similar David Kwena but his rendition were not as realistic, or as creative as yours with the princesses. This is my opinion but I’d like to see what you could do.
February 19, 2012 at 2:58 am
I read the other posts, nevermind if your not planning on doing the princes I apologize for not reading ahead. Either way I think the princesses look amazing all of them must be fun to be able to bring them to life that way. Thank you for sharing I know I loved the Disney movies when I was little and still do!
February 20, 2012 at 7:40 pm
Oh wow, You are a brilliant Artist, and this is just further proof of your amazing talent! Thank you so much for the beautiful pieces.
February 21, 2012 at 9:16 pm
I can’t help but visit your blog everyday three weeks to see if you have a new work! Your ideas are amazing, and your creations continue to be my wall paper! I see Jennifer Aniston in Jane’s eyes! She looks like a character off Lost or surviver shows! Very well done on a jungle theme!
February 21, 2012 at 11:19 pm
This is quite realistic although I imagine her to look slightly older.
Wow, the effort and time it must’ve taken you to produce such a work…
February 22, 2012 at 5:32 am
brilliant! this is my favorite one yet, she looks so real!
i know she’s not a disney princess but could u please please do amalthea from the movie The last unicorn? i can’t think of anyone who’d do more justice to it.
February 24, 2012 at 12:32 pm
Thanks
But unfortunately I am not familiar with the character you mentioned!
February 22, 2012 at 9:10 pm
Wow, looks like Jennifer Love Hewitt!
February 24, 2012 at 12:16 pm
stumbled upon your blog.. amazing work, thumbs and toes up!
February 26, 2012 at 5:54 pm
I love these so much! I echo the others…please continue! I’d love most to see Wendy even more than Tinker Bell, and also Eilonwy from The Black Cauldron.
February 28, 2012 at 9:59 pm
Thanks
and for the suggestions as well!
February 26, 2012 at 9:06 pm
I fall into a never ending glitter splash of love and peace the walls around me spin into luxury chocolate bars wrapped in violet bows fairies dance across the room and the world drips rainbow colors of midnight groovy vibes each of your posts is excellent and i love your blog Keep It Up X Mercury Moonshine Dutchess “Spreading Love Around The Dublin Streets Since the Full Moon Was Born” Lets spread love in Georges Arcade and Throw Glitter in the Patricks Parade
February 28, 2012 at 9:59 pm
Thank you so much!
February 28, 2012 at 1:48 am
I know you said you wouldn’t do princes… but seriously if you did Aladin it would make my day… month… year lol.
February 28, 2012 at 3:50 pm
She looks like Erin Karpluk!
February 28, 2012 at 7:33 pm
Exquisite. What medium did you use?
February 28, 2012 at 9:58 pm
Thanks! Combination of various digital techniques; photo compositing, manipulating, digital painting etc.
February 29, 2012 at 1:01 am
Oh I thought you used a more traditional medium. Your technique and skill is outstanding!
March 1, 2012 at 5:04 am
These are really fantastic, i wonder, do you use a model when you draw?
March 5, 2012 at 11:28 pm
Thanks! I don’t really use models. I do these digitally, but I do refer to real life people to get a sense of realism
March 3, 2012 at 3:20 pm
The best
March 4, 2012 at 9:09 am
I love it i think it really loks like her! Also I agree too with the other comments please please please do Lilo, Wendy, Kida, Ariel’s daughter Melody, Elizabeth Swan from pirates of the Caribbean , Tinkerbell, and Giselle from Enchanted. Please please please and thank you
March 4, 2012 at 1:01 pm
Oikein onnistunut!
Kivalla lailla erilainen kuin stereo-Jane!
March 5, 2012 at 11:25 pm
Kiitos!
March 9, 2012 at 3:35 am
Wow! Once again great work! She looks wonderful, and alos i wouldn’t mind seeing the male versions as well, but only if you have time for that. Keep up the good work and can’t wait to see your future paintings
March 9, 2012 at 10:55 pm
I think she looks a lot like Maggie Gyllenhaal (http://images.allmoviephoto.com/2008_The_Dark_Knight/2008_the_dark_knight_008.jpg).. but that’s a good thing.
Ihan mahtavaa duunia. Kiitos mielettömästi näistä!
March 16, 2012 at 3:02 pm
Kiitos kommentista! Kiva, että tykkäät
March 13, 2012 at 8:57 pm
nice.
)))))))))))
but I’m waiting for esmeralda from the hunchback of notre dame
I love this blog anyway =)))
March 16, 2012 at 3:00 pm
Thanks! You should be able to find her already
March 14, 2012 at 9:19 am
WOW! I’m breathless! I’m an artist and I’m so amazed by your work. You captured their faces perfectly. Wow!!!!
Is it really a photo manipulation? or Real Drawing? Coz I draw but I can’t tell if it is or it’s not…
Wow!
March 16, 2012 at 3:00 pm
Thank you! It’s a combination of various digital techniques such as photo compositing and manipulation and digital painting
March 14, 2012 at 8:21 pm
This series really is amazing. You’ve done incredible work. You really should look into what it would take for you to sell prints of these pictures. Certainly, these works are original enough that you shouldn’t have copyright issues. In fact, if some sharp-eyed Disney executive noticed your work, his/her best move would be to arrange to sell your prints in the Disney theme parks.
March 16, 2012 at 2:59 pm
Thank you! Yeah I definitely should look into it
March 15, 2012 at 1:56 pm
She looks just like Natalie Dormer.
March 17, 2012 at 2:36 pm
she looks like maggie gyllenhaal
March 17, 2012 at 7:58 pm
Love her, she looks somewhat like Maggie Gyllenhaal…I’d love to see Tinker Bell!
March 18, 2012 at 5:29 am
Looks kinda like Jennifer Anniston
March 18, 2012 at 8:39 am
siis Jirka ootsä suomalaine
? pakko vaan sanoo et olin iha MITÄ ku jossai luki et nää on suomalaisen tekemiä, nää on vaa nii kertakaikkisen upeita 
!
March 18, 2012 at 7:55 pm
Olen kyllä
Kiitoksia! Kiva, että tykkäät 
March 18, 2012 at 8:15 pm
Hi!! I really adore your work!! The characters are so real, so representative!! keep on!! ^___^
March 19, 2012 at 2:32 am
I love her! You should do the princesses with their princes, oh that would be so cute! Ive seen a few sites not crediting your work, I forgot the names, but you should look into that. You are so talented and no one should be stealing. Anyways, absolutely adorable, maybe next you should do WENDY from Peter pan!!!
March 20, 2012 at 2:54 am
Gorgeous! I wish I could buy these prints!
March 21, 2012 at 5:28 am
you keep on doing these they’re turning out super awesome its nice to see a perspective on the Disney characters in a more real way
March 21, 2012 at 5:29 am
i’d love to see more of them,more of the Disney characters
March 21, 2012 at 1:25 pm
You are great at portraying the personality of these characters – the real life, deep layers of a person. It’s not easy to do this, and this is very very impressive. I agree with some other comments to take on the challenge of the Disney men. Good luck with this, it might be only a pastime but it is exposing your talent to lots of people.
March 22, 2012 at 1:28 am
Thanks! I’m glad to hear that you think that
March 21, 2012 at 8:37 pm
Please do tinkerbell! Wonderful. True artist.
March 22, 2012 at 1:28 am
Thank you! and for the suggestion as well
March 21, 2012 at 10:39 pm
I think that Jane here is the most prettiest Disney character u’ve done…♥
March 21, 2012 at 11:59 pm
Oh my heavens. Your work is absolutely astounding and beautiful. All of it. Thank you for sharing this with the world! You’re AMAZING!!!
March 22, 2012 at 1:17 am
Thank you! My pleasure
March 22, 2012 at 4:18 am
I think you hit jane just right! She is so adorable! WHY would Tarzan NOT want Jane! I admire your works and am constantly amazed at how amazing it is. I wish I had the consistency like to do it. I would love to but I have no creativity as much as I enjoy it so I know I would kill my love for it
Anyways keep doing it and keep it up! I love it so much I’m seething with jealously yet at the same time I’m proudly showing it off even though I don’t know you!
March 22, 2012 at 8:35 pm
Thank you so much
March 22, 2012 at 10:37 am
i’m so in love with Jane! what you created is amazing!
March 22, 2012 at 12:29 pm
It’s beautiful, do you have prints available for purchase? I would love to hang these in my daughters room!
March 22, 2012 at 8:25 pm
Thanks! Unfortunately I am not providing prints at the moment
March 22, 2012 at 1:18 pm
I do a bit of photography art too and I’ve got to hand it to you, YOU ROCK! I”m very stingy with praises but you wowed the hell outta me. Keep it up!
March 22, 2012 at 8:24 pm
Thank you! means a lot
March 22, 2012 at 2:26 pm
Will you do Wendy and Tinker Bell next? Please
They are all so lovely!
March 22, 2012 at 8:23 pm
Will definitely consider doing those two once I find the time
March 22, 2012 at 4:57 pm
Upeita kaikki!
March 22, 2012 at 5:32 pm
You have fantastic work here. Bravo. Have you considered trying to recreate Zipporah from Dreamworks’ Prince of Egypt?
March 22, 2012 at 8:21 pm
Thanks! I have not considered her – just doing Disney characters for now
March 22, 2012 at 7:01 pm
Madeline Zima
March 22, 2012 at 7:04 pm
Siis ihan uskomattoman upeeta! Töitäi on todella ilo katsella, olet ihan mahdottoman taitava! Etenkin Disney-prinsessa fanina heti oli pakko tulla blogisi katsomaan kun äidiltäni sain vinkin, vau!
Mielenkiinnolla odottaisin myös kyllä kuvia prinsseistä?
March 22, 2012 at 8:19 pm
Kiitoksia! Kiva, että löysit tänne
Prinssit jää kuitenkin varmaan tekemättä…
March 22, 2012 at 7:10 pm
I saw your photo now! OK today from YAHOO. and I’M really speechless! I love your photo! Keep going!. One question for you! On Which princess you identify yourself?.
March 22, 2012 at 8:18 pm
Thanks! I haven’t really though about whether I identify myself with the princesses
I’m a guy 
March 22, 2012 at 8:13 pm
These are all so beautiful! Please, do Jasmine!
March 22, 2012 at 8:15 pm
Thanks! You can find her already
March 22, 2012 at 8:34 pm
Please do Ariel and Belle! :]
March 22, 2012 at 8:37 pm
Nvm, I found them :]
March 22, 2012 at 9:52 pm
APUA, upeita! Melkein putosin sängyltä tuolle Janen kuvalle, ähh, sanat eivät riitä! Suosikkiprinsessani Jasmine, Esmeralda ja Pocahontas olivat niin kauniita ja tismalleen sellaisia kun he oikeassa elämässä olivat. Näyttivät niin aidoiltakin vielä että ihme kun eivät liikkeelle lähteneet kuvaa katsoessa, HP-tyyliin.
Neljäs, ja itse asiassa varmaan suurin suosikkini Disneyn pimuista eli Meg oli kuitenkin ainoa joka jätti jotenkin kylmäksi. Yritin kovasti miettiä mikä siinä oli, koska ruumiinrakenne, hiukset ja hänestä muutenkin välittyvä fiilishän ovat ihan täyttä Megiä… Huuletkin ovat täydelliset Meg-huulet. Ehkä silmien ilme ei ole tarpeeksi tuima? En tiedä.
Mutta kaiken kaikkiaan, aivan upeaa työtä, valokuvasikin ovat häikäiseviä! Fanin sait
March 22, 2012 at 11:05 pm
Voi kiitos kattavasta kommentista
March 22, 2012 at 10:00 pm
I think all of these are great; but when do we get the other side (i.e. the guys)? I think there’s a lot of interest in seeing renditions of Aladdin, Prince Eric, Prince Phillip, Hercules, Tarzan, Prince Charming, Peter Pan, Taran, John Smith, Jim Hawkins, Milo Thatch, The Prince (Beauty and the Beast), David (Lilo & Stitch), Phoevus (Hunchback), etc. Your photography work included men as well as women, so here’s my vote for some equal time.
March 22, 2012 at 11:04 pm
Thanks – and for the suggestion as well
I just don’t think I will be able to find time for all these men!
May 2, 2012 at 7:59 pm
Just Aladin then?
May 18, 2012 at 6:32 pm
I don’t think I could get away with just going one
March 22, 2012 at 10:04 pm
Wow! Mahtavaa! Fantastic! Me and my girls want Ariel
March 22, 2012 at 11:03 pm
Thanks! Ariel can already be found here
March 22, 2012 at 10:21 pm
Beautiful!!!!!!! She’s just as I envisioned her!
March 23, 2012 at 12:17 am
Halo, I’m from Rio de Janeiro – Brasil.
Your work’s simply wonderful ! Congratulations!
you’re on de right profession !
It’s more than an ability, It’s skill !
March 23, 2012 at 1:19 am
I love Jane’s expression! It’s like she’s doing a double take and almost about to say something like “wait… are you for real?!” or something along those lines… which is perfect!
March 23, 2012 at 8:19 am
I think it’s the nose…there’s something really endearing about the nose. Spectacular work, I feel like this could be a photo.
Can’t wait to see more!
March 23, 2012 at 9:58 am
Nää sun työs on vaan toinen toistaan upeampia! Ihailen valtavasti sun lahjakkuutta.
March 23, 2012 at 11:35 am
Lovely!!!
March 23, 2012 at 11:56 am
This is amazing! My daughter was able to recognize all the princesses! They are all so beautiful I can’t make up my mind as to who is my favorite! My daughter and I are loving em all! Excellent job!
March 23, 2012 at 12:03 pm
I bookmarked your blog and will always check it out. Could you also do a rendition of Roxanne in the movie Megamind? Thanks in advance. Keep up the great work!
March 23, 2012 at 1:47 pm
Thank you! But I think I will stick to Disney characters for now. Thanks for the suggestion though
March 23, 2012 at 12:44 pm
I love these <3 Such a great art. I noticed also a little bit of resemblance in the art and real-life actors (which would be actually really great if Disney did the animations as "real" movies): Jane [Natalie Dormer/Saoirse Ronan], Aurora [Kristen Bell], Rapunzel [Dakota Fanning/Elle Fanning] and Pocahontas [Tia Carrere]
August 30, 2012 at 11:23 am
I also noticed Jane as Dormer and Pocahontas as Carrère, but not the others!, thank you! Rapunzel as Dakota Fanning is impressive but I am not so sure of Aurora as Bell: maybe some actress of years ago?… I sense I have already seen someone like Aurora but I can not remember… What do you think of Snowwhite as Anne Hathaway? Not that resemblance, of course, just an impression…
By the way, my most compliments to Jirka! Keep on, we are waiting!
September 25, 2012 at 9:59 am
I was not inspired by Dormer for Jane, but I must admit that there is something about this that reminds me of her! I don’t know if I would see Anne Hathaway as Snowwhite, cool idea though! And thanks for the comments
March 23, 2012 at 1:21 pm
Great pictures!
March 23, 2012 at 1:44 pm
Loved your work!!! Just beautiful!!!!
But…….
And how about the princes??? You just made me imagine them… hmmmm…
Prince Philipe, and so many others…
Would you take de challenge?
March 23, 2012 at 1:44 pm
Thanks
But I might have to pass on that challenge!
March 23, 2012 at 6:57 pm
Amazing artwork! I just stumbled upon your blog today and am blown away.
I hope you do one of tinkerbell if you haven’t already.
March 23, 2012 at 11:36 pm
Just amazing! She is so beautiful! I love your work! If you ever decide to sell prints, I know I’ll for sure be a buyer!
March 24, 2012 at 2:04 am
you are so talented baby
good job!! gbu!
March 24, 2012 at 2:58 am
These are absolutely beautiful! You really captured all the spunk in their personalities perfectly.
March 24, 2012 at 10:11 am
Love to see Belle from Beauty and the Beast! All these pictures are amazing! You’re super talented!
March 26, 2012 at 4:39 pm
Thanks! You should be able to find her here somewhere
March 24, 2012 at 4:29 pm
Nice, but this just looks like simple manipulation of existing movie star photos
March 24, 2012 at 5:15 pm
Haven’t read all the comments but I am waiting for Ariel. Please do her! : )
March 26, 2012 at 4:36 pm
I have
March 24, 2012 at 11:55 pm
These are so lovely! You have an amazing talent and capture the personality so well. I know she is not Disney, but Anastasia would be fun to see also. Thank you for the beautiful artwork!
March 24, 2012 at 11:59 pm
These are all so lovely! You have an amazing talent, and capture the personalities so well. I know she is not Disney, but Anastasia would be exciting to see also. Thank you for the beautiful artwork!
March 25, 2012 at 6:01 pm
Kinda looks like Saoirse Ronan.
March 25, 2012 at 6:19 pm
waude, ihan älyttömän hienoja kaikki prinsessakuvat! eipä mulla muuta, jatka sä vaan samaan malliin (:
March 26, 2012 at 8:01 pm
i’m waiting for princess kida
March 27, 2012 at 3:22 pm
She’s EXACTLY like Maggie Gyllenhaal, excellent work!
March 28, 2012 at 3:43 am
All of the princesses are very beautiful. It’s a great work you did. My daughters love them so much, please give me a permission to put it in my blog. suhanti.posterous.com
keep up the good job. bless you, Jirka.
April 2, 2012 at 4:26 pm
Thanks! Feel free to, as long as you credit me and link back to me
March 28, 2012 at 4:11 pm
looks natural..like ur creation.:)
March 29, 2012 at 4:46 am
I love all your Disney princess photos, I saw them all at Yahoo, congrats. Amazing, wonderful,..keep it on
March 30, 2012 at 8:10 pm
hey your work is fantastic, how about your interpretation of the real life barbie??????
April 2, 2012 at 4:18 pm
Thank you! And thanks for the interesting suggestion as well, but I don’t think it would go with the rest of these
March 30, 2012 at 9:00 pm
She is beautiful, so are all the other ones <3
just a thought keep up the AMAZING WORK xx
i think itwould be interesting to see your take on tarzan, herculesorsome of the male disney characters *hint hint*
April 1, 2012 at 9:04 am
Beautiful!!! Would you do Anastasia? She was technically a princess
April 2, 2012 at 4:11 pm
Thanks
But I’m only doing Disney characters for now
April 3, 2012 at 11:39 am
These are so amazing!!!! I simply cannot believe how great this one is. Love Jane. AND Belle, she’s my favorite character
Maybe try Kida? She would look so cool in your style.
April 8, 2012 at 3:23 pm
Thank you! I should try to find time to watch Atlantis, and maybe I would be inspired enough to give her a go!
April 4, 2012 at 4:25 am
Pretty! I thought she looked familiar but I couldn’t put my finger on it..
and then I realized…
She does look like Jennifer Love Hewitt!
April 4, 2012 at 4:55 pm
A bit like Jennifer Aniston!
Beautiful work. Your interpretation is kinda spot on. My favs are snow white, Ariel & Jasmine. Keep up the good work!
April 6, 2012 at 3:05 am
please please please please ariel princess mermaid please please
April 6, 2012 at 9:49 pm
Wow! The whole series is amazing! Did you look at photos original actresses by any chance?
April 8, 2012 at 3:18 pm
Thanks! Anika Noni Rose is the only original actress that I looked photos of.
April 11, 2012 at 1:04 am
Is there any chance whatsoever that you’re looking to sell prints of any of these?! I’d love to put them in my daughter’s room so she can have real life strong women role models instead of the typical cheesy cartoons.
April 17, 2012 at 11:25 pm
Not at the moment. I am pretty sure there might be a copyright issue with these being heavily influenced by the Disney brand… sorry!
April 14, 2012 at 8:06 pm
These are absolutely fantastic! I love how you keep the original character while making her more realistic. WOW!
Could I use your realistic Princess pictures on my blog for a blog post?
http://thedisneyfreakblog.blogspot.com
Thanks so much!
April 17, 2012 at 11:17 pm
Thank you! Sure thing as long as you credit me properly and link back to me
April 21, 2012 at 2:25 pm
Here’s the post if you want to check it out: http://thedisneyfreakblog.blogspot.com/2012/04/real-life-princesses.html
I made sure to give you credit, to warn no one to re-post them or anything without your permission, and linked back lots!

This is so beautiful! Could you maybe do Tinkerbell? You’ve already done all my favorites. You’re so talented.
April 17, 2012 at 11:17 pm
Thanks! I will definitely consider doing her once I’m less busy.
April 20, 2012 at 5:32 am
you’re a really talented artist. can you provide a video tutorial for this?
April 21, 2012 at 11:03 am
Thank you! I have never done tutorials before, so I would not know how to go about doing a good one, since my way of working is anything but straightforward. Also, I do not want to reveal all of my personal tricks if that makes sense ;D
April 20, 2012 at 5:47 am
she looks like natalie dormer… (am i right, jirkavinse?)
April 21, 2012 at 11:00 am
Yeah, I googled her and I can definitely see the resemblance now!
April 22, 2012 at 12:31 pm
I dont think Anastasia is disney, but watevs you should draw her:)
April 22, 2012 at 12:32 pm
And you should draw the princesses with the guys and villains, in different scenes!
April 25, 2012 at 11:39 pm
Your work is really perfect.
She looks with a actress.
So real
April 28, 2012 at 4:05 am
Probably my favorite. This one is just perfect!
May 2, 2012 at 12:28 am
i noe u hv read dis hundreds of tyms, but here goes- GR8 WORK!!!
:-*
Wil u b kind enough to provide a tutorial for this?
Text or video, dosen’t matter…
May 18, 2012 at 6:32 pm
Thanks! But I don’t think I could really come up with a tutorial that would translate very well…
May 3, 2012 at 2:05 pm
I just love how you actually pay close attention to their unique facial features which really brings them to life. According to what you’ve done so far, You should really look at Merida from Pixar’s new movie Brave, she might just be the newest Disney Princess! Merida has one the most interesting face designs I’ve seen and I’m extremely curious as how to bring her to life.
May 18, 2012 at 6:30 pm
Thanks for the suggestion. I will definitely consider that once I get to see the movie
May 6, 2012 at 11:10 pm
Hey Jirka!
Congratulations for your amazing work, it’s beautiful and lets me speechless. And what about Jane? Certainly one of my favorites! I was wondering, have thought about Anastasia? Well, just another suggestion.
Congrats again!
May 18, 2012 at 6:29 pm
Thanks! I have thought about Anastasia, but since she’s not a Disney character, I thought it would deviate a bit too far from what I’m doing here.
May 13, 2012 at 7:53 pm
love your drawings!! // the girl from sweden
May 14, 2012 at 1:18 pm
She looks like Rashida Jones…
May 16, 2012 at 2:42 am
Was this by any chance inspired by Amanda Crew?
May 18, 2012 at 6:27 pm
Nope.
May 20, 2012 at 4:27 am
How long on average does it take to complete on of these pics?
June 1, 2012 at 5:01 pm
Hours… and hours. I don’t ever finish these on one go, so I usually work on these for days or even weeks. And of course it depends on the piece – some I might get right quicker than others.
May 20, 2012 at 8:02 pm
Really beautiful work !
each one has an idea about who she looks like, but nobody has said Alyson Hannigan yet, however she was the first person I thought of when i saw the picture.
Anyway, again, great work, I enjoy all your disney’s characters so much ! Congrats !
June 1, 2012 at 5:00 pm
Thanks! :>
May 22, 2012 at 3:22 am
Wow, all of your work is absolutely amazing, I’m just commenting on this one because it is the most recent
Seriously my mind had exploded at this, and although I know a little bit of photoshop, the idea of creating something like this just feels absolutely beyond me!! And yet I feel like trying again. Where did you learn how to do this?
June 1, 2012 at 4:58 pm
Thank you very much! I’m self-taught, so I just learnt all of this by playing around in Photoshop and exploring all the things I could do with it
June 4, 2012 at 10:01 am
Amazing
I wish I could self-teach myself that well!!
May 22, 2012 at 5:02 pm
Is there anywhere that you say who you used as references for each of your real-life Disney princesses? I know I recognize a few of them and it’s driving me crazy!
June 1, 2012 at 4:56 pm
I do not just have one reference for these. I pick, mix and blend features of a lot of different people. So I often it does not make sense to name any references, since the outcome is not based on anyone in particular.
May 27, 2012 at 7:15 am
I actually know a girl who looks exactly like her, scary..
May 31, 2012 at 2:57 pm
I´m completely amazed by your work, it´s simply fantastic!! and this contrubition with Jane is even better than the marvelous previous ones. Congratulations!!
I want to do something similar but not so photorealistic, I´ve oly finished three of them: pocahontas, esmeralda and ariel. They are in my photo album “the first time ever I saw your face”, just in case you are interested in that
I can´t wait for your next piece or art to come!!
thank you
June 1, 2012 at 4:51 pm
Thank you! And just wow… your art work is stunning!
June 17, 2012 at 4:34 am
This is amazing! I saw your work everywhere! I hope you’ll make disney princes version too =]
June 20, 2012 at 12:47 pm
Thanks a lot
June 23, 2012 at 2:32 am
AMAZING AMAZING work!! Really exactly how they’d look in life! Now I challenge you to work on making the “princes” etc from Disney!! GREAT WORK! Keep it up!
July 4, 2012 at 5:13 pm
She’s like the Olsen twins
July 9, 2012 at 1:37 am
[...] Jane « Jirka’s BlogFeb 12, 2012 … Hey Jirka! I’ve been checking your works, they’re AWESOME! All of them… I started a graphic design course this year, and I’d like to tell you … [...]
July 9, 2012 at 4:10 pm
hey I just came in here and I got to say im really impressed by your skill and talent, especially these disney pictures! Soo lifelike!
By the way, is there any way to download or purchase a big copy of this picture? I just wish the size was bigger!
Keep up the amazing work!
July 22, 2012 at 5:02 pm
Thanks
! Unfortunately, I only provide these pictures in this size.
August 11, 2012 at 3:00 am
OMG she’s beautiful! please work with Studio Ghibli characters next!
August 30, 2012 at 7:04 am
Thanks! I don’t think I am familiar with the work of this Studio though
October 4, 2012 at 10:58 pm
I love your work. All of them look so real. She looks very much like cartoon Jane. She kinda reminds me of Alyson Hannigan, were you inspired by here?
January 23, 2013 at 12:03 pm
Thanks! Nope, was not thinking of Alyson at all when working on this
October 4, 2012 at 10:59 pm
*her
October 25, 2012 at 7:31 pm
this is the top!
is so similar to the movie… really… good work!!!
January 23, 2013 at 12:01 pm
Thank you!
December 24, 2012 at 3:46 am
Looks more like Alyson hannigan to me! http://static.tumblr.com/5qv1tv4/WhPm7ugrn/alyson-hannigan-4.jpg
December 25, 2012 at 11:44 pm
All of them are excellent, but this is by far the best one of all of them!!!!Please do Belle (Beauty and the Beast) and Kida (Princess Kidagakash from Atlantis) next!!! And let us know how we can buy your prints!!
January 23, 2013 at 11:52 am
Thanks! I have already done Belle
Unfortunately, I am not selling prints
January 20, 2013 at 6:20 pm
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I truly appreciate your efforts and I will be
waiting for your further write ups thanks once again.
January 29, 2013 at 2:16 pm

February 7, 2013 at 1:17 pm
Thanks! Haha, I wouldn’t know
February 1, 2013 at 11:47 am
I just found your work and am enjoying the Disney Princesses very much. OH, and your “created model” is beautiful, too.
February 7, 2013 at 1:15 pm
Glad to hear!
February 3, 2013 at 2:03 am
She looks a bit like Erin Karpluk from Being Erica.
March 5, 2013 at 11:25 am

March 7, 2013 at 5:13 am
She is beautiful!
I imagined a Miranda Kerr look for Jane for, but this is great!
March 12, 2013 at 2:26 pm
Hieno! J. Aniston on varmaankin ollut pohjalla?
June 13, 2013 at 12:37 pm
Kiitos! Rehellisesti sanottuna ei kyllä ollenkaan
!
March 16, 2013 at 6:44 am
She looks like Sharni Vinson (Step up 3)
