even the requester’s url is disturbing!!!!
so true anon. their bio is craaazy i couldn't tell if they were a troll or just disturbed (in reference to the jafar ask)
When Al and Kassim argue and bicker, it makes Omar anxious. So this is how Babkak dissolves their little spats.
This sketch has been sitting on my desktop for so long since I was meaning to finish it up digitally but I'm just posting it as is cuz idk if I will-
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)
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!)
Over the past week I've been really feeling an Aladdin musical resurgence. I took a break for a while since I wasn't feeling inspired but I can feel the inspiration coming back to me finally! Like I been thinking about it more, drawing more, BOK is back on my brain (they never left but it's more front and center now) I think I may be back??
Anyway, Aladdin Broadway content coming soon methinks
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 :))
cannot stop thinking about agent stone. so here he is! big fan of everyone drawing him with eggman-esque glasses
Very abstracted self-portrait. I wanted to do something really weird and fun, and this was the result!
Also first ever post here! I have never used tumblr before so I'm still figuring things out BUT I'm excited to be trying a new site out!
a rouge colored pencil sketch from my sketchbook because she's a queen and i love her!!!! i can't wait to see her in sonic prime in her new outfit which i also love
Some Fossil Fighters doodles from my sketchbook from last year. I did these in class after a critique. Spinax, Stego, and Elasmo!
First, I'm sorry to hear about your tablet. I can only hope it goes well with finding a new one later down the line.
Second, for a potential Aladdin broadway idea, how about drawing Aladdin and his friends as children? Or maybe Aladdin as a boy and with your interpretation of his mom? What do you think?
Thank you! i've been doing some research for which one to get as a replacement. my old one i had probably close to 10 years now and was one of the more basic ones (it's a wacom bamboo) so I'm going to be getting a more professional grade one! end of an era i suppose.
i love the idea of BOAK as kids (may do that another time), but I chose to depict little Al and his mom. I imagine she was strikingly beautiful, and had curly hair like Aladdin does. I referenced some of the marketplace outfits worn by the ladies in the show for her dress. with her being a mom, i made her outfit a little more modest, so her stomach would be fully covered.
(i rarely draw ladies so this was fun!)
