Happy Pride!! Yeah, I'm a handful of days late BUT I wanted to take my time with this one and I'm SUPER happy with it :))
I did a pride doodle of BOAK last year so I wanted to do one for this year too. Added the flags I headcanon these dudes as too cuz why not. (and if you have different ones, they are so valid and i love you)
if you're an aladdin enjoyer like i am, please send me some doodle ideas! aladdin broadway preferably, but if you want me to draw something from the movie maybe i will.
i've been drawing aladdin musical stuff so long i have like no ideas left, but i love the characters and story so
characters/characters interacting/settings/scenes/objects/whatever you want i literally just want to draw some aladdin stuff
tablet update!! i bought a new one and it rocks. haven't used it too much but really enjoying it so far! it's bigger so i have to get adjusted to the size difference (I've used a small tablet for like 10 years so i have to start drawing bigger if that makes sense)
obligatory babkak doodle to warm up to it a bit
been watching naruto so here's a little sketchbook doodle of Kakashi since he's my favorite
i always feel weird drawing anime hair, i feel like drawing super big poofy hair can look awkward in my style, but i think i found a compromise here
him and guy (gai?) are so sweet together i love them
OBC Kassim doodle!
Illustration of Omar in his finale outfit. This is for Brad's birthday tomorrow but I'm posting it here today so you all get to enjoy it first!
After Jafar is defeated, BOK gets to be inducted into the palace to be like Al's advisors and assistants. Omar asks if he gets to be the Royal Choreographer, and he pulls out these bright pink scarves from his pockets to accentuate his candidacy. An icon.
a few weeks ago i was commissioned by the wonderful michael schimmele (who is currently playing Babkak in Aladdin) to do an illustration for him!
super cool and surreal to have the actors playing my favorite characters be fans of my art.
Tell me any BOAK related hcs that you have on the mind. Like any at all. I’ve been trying to think of a hc but I’ve honestly forgotten half of my hcs for this show djdndndndndnd
woo ok so here are a few just off the top of the dome:
Kassim made all the necklaces for the group. Based on the fact that Brandon O'Neill made all of them for the original show.
Babkak and Omar are really close. Babkak's a good companion for when Omar gets overly anxious or overwhelmed. He's super laid back so he balances out Omar's anxiety.
Omar is in charge of cutting everyone's hair when they get too shaggy.
Kassim calls Babkak "Babs" when he's really drunk, which Babkak finds amusing.
Babkak gives really good hugs (soft).
They're all queer. I see Babkak as aroace, Omar as gay, Kassim as bi, and Al as bi with mostly a preference for women. (sometimes it can fluctuate based on the actors in Aladdin's case). I see Agrabah as a (mostly) accepting fantasy world, so you can be out and not have to worry, save for maybe the guards.
Kassim actually really likes stealing. He likes the thrill. He's also the one who comes up with most of their schemes.
Babkak is in charge of mending their clothes and patching them up if the others get hurt.
Aladdin is surprisingly solitary. He loves his friends, but he spends a lot of time alone. His favorite spots to just chill by himself are on top of buildings.
Omar's estranged father is a member of the guards. He avoids the guards at ALL COSTS because of this.
Babkak spends half of the time zoning out/thinking about other things and just chilling, which is why he is always snapping out of it and yelling food names out. Relaxed king.
Kassim is the leader of their quartet, but others tease him saying "no Aladdin's the leader" just to make him angry.
Babkak and Kassim founded their group, adding Aladdin later and Omar last. They all met when they were kids.
Even though Kassim and Babkak make little pointed remarks at each other in the show, it's not because they dislike each other. It's actually because they're really close friends and that's how they communicate. I feel like they have a lot of inside jokes.
I have loads more, these are just the ones I could type up now! I can type up more if you wanted more specific stuff :))
Hi there. For an Aladdin request, can you draw Aladdin when he's alone and singing Proud of Your Boy please?
"Mom, I will try to, try hard to make you, proud of your boy."
This is actually the first time I've done an illustration of Aladdin. Usually, I just draw sidekicks, so this is a nice change! Went with Adam Jacobs' Aladdin for this one, just because I'm partial towards drawing OBC. He was the first Aladdin I ever saw, so when I think "Aladdin" I think of him.
Proud of your Boy is such a beautiful, powerful song.
(told you guys I would get to the requests eventually, and now is finally that time!)
BOK High Adventure doodle.
I missed drawing these dudes! with summer coming i hope to be doing more art, just been busy with other stuff
