This post is via Dreaming_Faerie. As she is unable to post pictures I said I would for her.
Dreaming_Faerie:
I managed to find the Sirene book online and ordered it. I received it yesterday (Thanks again, ferragosto) and was finally able to scan it in today. So, after 2 and a half hours, I present the first 19 images for this book!
It's a hardcover storybook that's 51 pages. Not all the pages have pictures on them, but when they do, they are beautiful. I can't wait to try to translate this baby. The name is "Sirene - Le Winx nel mondo sottomarino di Andros" and it translates to "Siren - The Winx in the undersea world of Andros." I'm not sure if the world itself is called Sirene or if that is another name for the mermaids.
The back of the book reads, "Allertata da un oscuro presagio, Bloom raccoglie la richiesta di aiuto lanciata da due sirene in difficoltà . Una minaccia orribile, nascosta nei fondali di Andros, rischia di compromettere l'equilibrio del mondo sottomarino. Tra metamorfosi spettacolari e duelli mozzafiato, le Winx lotteranno contro il temutissimo Kraken, affiancando le Sirene, magia dopo magia, fino alla vittoria finale."
Translated, it's "Alerted from a dark omen, Bloom collects the famous request of help from two sirens in difficulty. A horrible threat, hidden in the backdrops of Andros, risky to compromise the balance of the undersea world. Between spectacular metamorphosis and duels, the Winx will fight against the feared Kraken, supporting the Sirens, magic after magic, until the final victory."
Now, for the record - I'm putting these images up without any watermark or that crap. I tried my best with these scans. Please, if you're going to spread these images around, at least give me, dreaming_faerie credit for scanning them. Refer people to this community (http://community.livejournal.com/winx_club/938280.html). Don't put your own watermark on them or claim you scanned/put up these images yourself. This is for the fans. Don't try to muck it up.
Now that that's over, let's get on with it!
This is the cover.
This is the back of it.
This is Kalia, mermaid of flowers.
Flora and Lockette.
Griselda
Kalia, from Bloom's dream
Nesia, from her dream as well.
Flora comforting Bloom after waking up.
Here are the first 8! Remember to give credit to Dreaming_Faerie. She is the only one who has uploaded the full pages without no watermarking!
Wow Thanks so much!
Next 11!
I only scanned this page for Kiko. He's so cute!
The girls with Bloom in bed.
Part 2
Tala, a messanger and supposedly an Ambassador to the underwater world.
Andros underwater kingdom.
Queen Ligea and Tressa
The Winx as they meet them
Queen Ligea (Translated: Mini Water Document - Queen Ligea - Very dear to her people, Ligea is an enlightened queen. She governs with equity and justice.)
Tressa (Translated: Mini Water Document - Tressa - Tressa is a brave siren, energetic and combative. She has a deep connection with her mother, the Queen Ligea.)
Queen Ligea and - oh em gee, I wonder what she's doing!
...Is it me or does that Flora pic look pasted on? Whatever, it still looks good.
You got them all in! Thank you! <3
And yeah everyone, as I said in the post, the rest as coming soon. Hopefully tomorrow, but if not then, then Sunday.
Sure. I'm glad I could share it with everyone. We need better than watermarked images!
And ooohh, okay! I'm glad that tinydragon could post them, as I'm still pretty new with a forum like this.
Omg! These are gorgeous! Thanks so much for posting these!
Wooow! Omigoshies, thanks so much =DD~
Two of those Flora pictures have been passed down...=P
OMG this is awsome! Thanks so much!!!!
Wow, they are amazing! Thank you very much!
Woooow! Thanks so much, Dreaming_faerie and TD! ^^
thanks for the pics
Amazing. But why are they in their season 1 outfits? FACEPALM
Did they mention the timeline anywhere? It could be like the comic: An alternative continuity, or a side-story. Admittedly that's kinda strange, because Season 3 left almost no room inbetween things for it to happen. I just wonder why it's Bloom having the prophetic dreams.... aren't the mermaids Layla's territory?
They are.. Its even Andross gosh darnit
Yeah.... *Sigh* I'm trying to be lenient with this book because face it, that's some stellar artwork, I love how they experimented with the tails and once more gave Musa some headphones. Also, let's face it, a big part of the fandom will SQUEAL over the fact that they used the first Transformation outfits.
Oh, even though sirene literally translates into siren, it should be mermaid..
Yeah.... *Is sad fan of Greek myths*
babelfish says mermaid in italian is sirena.....
I could translate them, plop them into babelfish and change the literal translation to what it means if you want..
Sirene can mean mermaid in Italian.
For instance, Mermaid Melody the popular Anime, is called "Principesse Sirene: Mermaid Melody" in Italy which translates to Mermaid Princess: Mermaid Melody.
Sirene could also be Mermaids, especially is Siren is one and Sirene then could be the multiple noun.
And these are sooo amazing! Thanks so much Dreaming_Faerie!
Well, in both english dubs, they were mermaids, so.. .. it should be mermaid
Yeah. I don't seen any feathers.
They most likely set this in season 3. They had their season 3 PJs on but no Enchantix.
If you are looking for a time line... you probably shouldn't. This is just one of the many little novels that Italy gets to make the company more money.
Ooohh, okay. Thanks, dominoprincess!
And it can be plural? Okay, that helps a lot. Thank you dittadulla!
And for the rest, I can translate it. I'm also just beginning a semester and I have other work to do, but I really want to try my hand and see if I'm getting the hang of Italian or not.
And thank you, P-Girl, for the sarcasm. I'm going by a literal translation of the word sirene and was unsure if how it would be in Italian. Thank you everyone else for your help though. <3
That was meant as a good-natured joke. Why can't I pull that off with people?
Humor and sarcasm are hard to tell online because you can't get facial or tone recognition. Everything sounds the same then.
And oops! Sorry Ditty. :3
'Kay.... Sorry for the misunderstanding.
No problem, DF (=
omg wow this is brilliant!!
Waaaaaiiiiiii @_____@ So pretty *drool* Thank you both of you, so much!
omg, ty for the beautiful images
Felt sad when kiko cried
Again doing this for dreaming_faerie so give her the credit!
dreaming_faerie : More Sirene pics!
Okay, the only new pics I could get up were the main girls in their mermaid attire. I scanned both pages - ones with their tails and ones with their waist and above. I tried joining them, but it didn't work out. The scanner I'm using isn't big enough to do that. I'll either need to find a bigger one or try something else.
Still, here are the pics. Now, for Musa and Tecna, their tails are intertwined and they aren't given any 'chats from mermaids' bubbles, as well as an identity. I don't know why. I did my best to translate their little profiles and such.
As I said yesterday, please don't watermark and give credit to me for the scans. Tell people about this comm if you're going to spread the pics around. Give credit to where credit is due.
Mini Water Document - Bloom | Mermaid - Special Mark: horn (heart?) of pearls - Identity: perfectly acclimated! - Characteristic: vital submarine energy.
Chats from mermaids - Even Bloom has inside of herself the Flame of the Dragon, it's a perfect water creature.
Chats from mermaids - Watch it! She is capable of looking at herself in the mirror within a shell
Mini Water Document - Stella | Mermaid - Special Mark: Trendy streaked tail - Identity: never not feminine (it literally translated to "feminine like not never" and I have no clue what that means. This was the closest I could get.) - Feature: unchanged vanity
Mini Water Document - Flora | Mermaid - Special Mark: tail like a waterflower - Identity: friendly with animals and submarine plants - Feature: supple movements and elegant
Chats from mermaids - Algae verse is tenderness and corals are moving.
Chats from mermaids - She swims like one of us!
Mini Water Document - Layla | Mermaid - Special Mark: diadem of pearls - Identity: water creature to the umpteenth power - Feature: the fairy of the fluids is in her natural element
Mini Water Document - Musa | Mermaid - Special Mark: style treated - Feature: produces musical bubbles
Mini Water Document - Tecna | Mermaid - Special Mark: extremist top-chic - Feature: studies her reactions to the new environment
Interesting, the way their drawn it almost looks like the tails are more like costumes than them actually turning into mermaids (especially on Bloom's)
Still awesome! Thanks again to both of you!
Wow these are wonderful quality! Thanks again
This is so cool and cute. xD
I think the reason why they are in Winx Form, cause that's the part they didn't get their Enchantix since Layla gets her first. Probably this is the sence where they never meet Baltor/Valtor. It's maybe this episode is a never seen episode. xD Just a little story of them as mermaids. It will be cool if they are in the Series. =)
Thanks Tiny Dragon and Dreaming_Faerie! I will be crediting your LiveJournal, Dreaming_Faerie for the images! =D
Thanks for showing the images. It's just so wonderful. =D
Just beware, some visitors can't understand English...they always like to claim them with watermarks, I'm saying not really most of them...so just be careful.
thanks for the pics
Okay, let me copy pasta my entry from LJ over onto here. \o/
Okay, I finally finished scanning all of Sirene in and uploaded them.
Again, remember to credit and refer people to the community if you share. I thought about putting a small watermark on there, but fans should enjoy full, glorious pics. I don't own Winx, I just want people to know I got the book and scanned it in. If you see someone spreading these pics around, either let me know or tell tham to give credit to [info]dreaming_faerie.
I will be trying to translate the book. Because of IRL stuff, that won't happen so quicikly. Still, I hope everyone enjoyed what I showed. Any questions, just ask. I'll try to answer back as quickly as I can.
Remember this? One of the very first mermaid pics released. ♥
Kalia, Nesia, and Tala on one side...
Winx girls on the other.
Mini Water Document - Tala: Mermaid Messenger - In the kingdom of the mermaids, her role is the ambassador of the sea.
Mini Water Document - Kalia: Mermaid of Undersea Flowers - Actually like Flora, Kalia also loves and defends the flowers of her world.
Mini Water Document - Nesia: Mermaid of Sweet Song - She is absolutely the mermaid with the more harmonious voice. She can bring forth sweet sounds, that accompany her song.
Stella amd the Kraken - Part 1
Oh look, part 2!
The five girls (Stella's waving her arms like an idiot. It's okay, I still <3 you bb!) attack!
Lol, everyone remember this pic as one of the first mermaid winx pics out there? :')
As well as this one.
Their love is so flowery.
I'm convinced at this point, they were done and lazy, so hey, why not use old stock photos? Jeans? That sounds good?
Now, there were two larger pictures in this book. They were difficult to scan and I tried to get them as best as I could. One featured Nesia and Tala, while the other featured most of the mermaids and the Winx girls. As I said, I tried to get them all for you guys.
And there you have it. That's basically all the pics from the book. If I can get my hands on a larger scanner, I'll try to get some scans of the two-page/spread out pics.
thanks for the pics
Kaila is Roxy.
Except she's a mermaid, not from Earth, has little to no impact on the Seasons whatsoever...... my apologies, I'm still a bit over-reacting over stuff like that.
Why Roxy? I would think she's like the mermaid version of Flora.
It's the pink, long straight hair, I presume. Maybe the narrow facial features.
wow thanks and i dont think Kaila is Roxy at all.
She isn't. This is clearly from before the 4th Season.
Eyes, hair, hair color, is the same
While it's a more valide claim then Pink hair = TECNA RIP-OFF!, please don't spark something like that. I'm still twitchy.
Mermaid lady has green eyes, I thought Roxy had blue/purple eyes? And the mermaid is missing the yellow tips to her hair. So if we're basing the claim solely on looks (which I don't agree with anyway), it still doesn't work.
Wait, Kalia has purple hair. Do you mean Nesia? She has the long, pink hair and green eyes.
So cool, thanks again. =D
omg what beautiful pictures. What a lovely book!
Wowserz, thanx for all the awesome pics without any watermarks ^^ Its really nice of you both :)
http://img90.yfrog.com/img90/5350/winxbook1.png
Means: The winx in the submarine world of andros
http://img193.yfrog.com/img193/4567/winxbook2.png
Means: Allertata from oncuro an omen,
Thanks for these pics
Both Allertata and Oncuro are still Italian words.
Wow, very nice. We knew they were out there and you gave them to us. Much appreciated Dreaming_Faerie.
Just a thought: If we saw some mermad pics ages ago (the Stella, Flora and Bloom ones) does that mean the book was out for a long time and we didn't see the rest until now???
The pics we saw a while ago might have been early releases from while the book was still in production, or still being written and designed.
Now what....? Comment that they're not their property?
File a copyright notice
http://www.google.com/support/blogger/bin/request.py?contact_type=blogger_dmca_infringment
Get that banned
I read on an online bookshop that it was released in 2007! I cant remember the exact date, but I'll try and find it!
EDIT Eeeek! Sorry, didnt see other replies!
Wow, that didn't take long -_-; Hopefully they get removed from her site soon.
And I guess I was wrong about the pics XD
I don't think I could file a copyright claim as it isn't my work. It's just my scans.
And even though the girl is doing craptacular crops of it, I will give her credit that after I commented, she put up the rest of the images without her watermark.
BTW, I see people editing comments/posts, but how do you do that? Is it something you gain when you become a certain member level?
None the less, she STOLE them and put her name on them.
If somebody took one of my videos and reposted it without my permission or crediting me by claiming it as their own work, theft, violation of copyright laws.
Fill it out
But you yourself stole the images from Rai Wkw.
This copyright thing you are on is stupid because what we do is illegal.
Exactly. And you have to state that you are the authorized owner of the copyright of these images which none of us certainly are; Rai is. So Rai could sue us rather.
Oooh, okay! Thanks for info on the edit.
And dittoing what Ditty and TD said. I don't own Winx, I just scanned in the stuff. Besides, it's the rule of the internet - once it's out there, that's it. It's lost forever on the interwebs, on a series of tubes.
Besides, if I comment, then people will know, so I'll do that. A small victory is still a victory in my favor. \o/ As long as the images are out there, free of markings, for the rest of the fans to see, I'm happy.
I would like to know how she got that Flora one together so nicely. I tried and it came out terrible!
This has been stolen.
http://winxclubdreams.forumcommunity.net/?t=31471954
http://lamagiadiventarealta.forumcommunity.net/?t=31463693
She might be, Ditty!
See, that's the thing with fandoms. If she just said she'd put them on her site, no watermarks, give credit, and even did that sort of connecting, I'd have no problem. It could be spread more then. Maybe some sort of fandom unity is a faraway dream...
And thank you, TD-babe!
well, we have to deal with them, it's not really easy to stop those copycats...=( Just gotta wait if it gets banned, or someone helpful who knows the language can handle it to give credits back to here. It takes time...just like my site (dreamywinx.6x.to) been getting a lot of copycats lately...-_-"
i cannot see what was stolen so cannot comment at this moment in time, though it is bad if they have stolen it
I think you only can view them by logining to your forum account if you have a account there. I thought Winx Club Dreams gives credit and it's a good source..but couldn't believe why they didn't credit back here. 0.0 that's really rude. We gave credits to them and they show no respect of giving credit back to here. -_-"
WInx Club Dreams actually deleted the thread that had the Sirene pics on it because I brought it to the attention to the mods that it was stolen. They either needed to give proper credit or take it down. They took it down.
Another theft report: http://www.winxclubstella.mlap.hu/
They stole the pics and plastered their name ALL over it!
thats bad
Wow..0.0 Actually, that's really weird? 0.0 She credit my site, Boo's site, WinxTales, and WinxSweets, but why she didn't credit MagixClub? I think she couldn't find a link back button to the forums? Even though, it such a shame she didn't credit WinxPrincess yet. -_-"
