M: Mermaids Of Hollywood App Is Out – Update x5

mermaid_001The previously reported iApp of the M: Mermaids Of Hollywood book by the photographer Mark Anderson is now available in the iTunes App Store for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad for the princely sum of 59p (99 cents US).

Kathryn appears in two photos.  The second is the same as the preview image we’ve already seen, there is nothing more to it than that.  The first, as previewed above, is a wider shot of Kathryn hiding behind the same fishing equipment.  She has very dark lipstick and wet hair.  We do get to see her tail (which looks a little Photoshopped on).  It is a little disappointing compared to the images of some of the other ladies, as this past year has seen Kathryn be far bolder on camera, but it still good to see.

You can find more details on the app HERE on the iTunes Store website.

Updates listed after the jump.

Update: Looking back at the ‘Making of…’ video shows that the half-a-fish the ladies are wearing is quite a basic wrapping around their legs with a tail shape on the end.  The fish scales and details on the tail have been Photoshopped on later, that explains the odd look to Kathryn’s image I mentioned before.

Update 2: Mark Anderson has posted a recent Entertainment Tonight segment about the Mermaids photoshoots on YouTube.  The first of Kathryn’s photos (as previewed above) appears very briefly 30 seconds in.

Update 3: Images updated to larger sized versions.

Update 4: A recent update (v1.1) to the app has added iPod touch support. iPod touch compatibility was claimed for v1.0 but it always crashed for me. It now works.

Update 5: Make-up artist CarleneK has let it be known via Twitter that she did Kathryn’s make-up for this shoot, it is how they first met.  The beginning of a beautiful friendship (see what I did there?) :-)

    Oh man, right when my iphone broke down… :(
    So we only get to see her head? I was hoping to get a full length picture. The ones of the other mermaids in the preview looked so gorgeous! Would have loved to see a pic of KM that way.
    Thanks for the info!

    Too bad it’s paid :(

      second there, I can’t really afford to purchase even a 99 cent app at the moment.

      The dark lipstick doesn’t look that great on her. The picture, it’s way too photoshopped. To me a photo should just be taken without enhancing it, to the point it’s unrealistic like this one is.

      It doesn’t even look like Kathryn’s really in the photo, like she was photoshopped in there, ( Sorry to critize but I just feel like it should have been better done. It doesn’t even show just how beautiful she really is )

      I wonder why the photographer chose to photographer that way, it’s almost as if she’s less important than the other celebs are.

  • Welcome to KM UK Fefê. I don’t think you have posted here before have you? More would have been nice and the app is in the lowest price category. If lots of people buy it maybe Mark will do more and get Kathryn involved again.

    @IcyWinter: Kathryn got 2 pictures when many of the other ladies only got 1 so she must have done something right.

    @Nscha. Typical. My iPod touch is working but the app keeps crashing on me. I’ve seen that others are having problems as well. Hopefully they’ll issue a new version to fix the problems. With regards to the picture we just get what you see above and the covered legs and tail.

    There is something odd about the photo, I guess it’s too enhanced for me to really like it. Kathryn looks like she was just pasted into the background ( sorry If I’m repeating myself )

    Is there a way to find the original and see what It looked like before they touched it up? I’m just curious.

  • I’ve updated the post to include a comment on a revision to the app that adds iPod touch compatibility.

  • Added an update regarding CarleneK’s involvement.

    • Icywinter2

      If this photoshoot was the first time that both the makeup artist and Kathryn had met, it doesn’t make any sense. She has done her makeup way before this. Unless this photoshoot was done way earlier last year.

      I’m confused that’s all, on this new story.
