For The Aladdin Requests, How About A Scene From My Broadway Sequel Headcanon?

Sketch of Aladdin. Usually I'm biased toward drawing the original cast when I draw, but this time I doodled the current Aladdin actor in the Broadway show, Michael Maliakel. I really like his portrayal of the character, I think he's my favorite Aladdin so far.

Old art that I'm posting cuz Brad finally went on Jeopardy and I'm super happy for him. King. I did this for his birthday in 2021.

What's your headcanon on Broadway!Iago?

I don't have as many headcanons for Iago, but here are a few:

He has some bird-like mannerisms as a callback to his animated counterpart. For example, I think he would like to snack on common "parrot snacks" like nuts and dried fruits. I also think he would adjust/pull at/smooth his clothes and hair like how birds preen their feathers. Things like that.

He definitely has a journal filled with devious plans.

(Post-show) I don't think they keep him locked in the dungeon for too long, realizing that he could actually help Kassim as the new royal advisor. In the beginning, Kassim struggles with being the new vizier, and Iago knew everything Jafar did as the past advisor, so he becomes Kassim's assistant. The guards keep a very close eye on him for a while, but eventually they realize he's reformed and won't be a threat. He and Kassim actually become friends.

this ones for all the kassim enjoyers out there. love this dude, don't draw him nearly enough

rouge…… 

the egyptian dino who I love so well

Carchar doodle requested by @purplefloyd

Omar sketch that I liked enough to play around with digitally. Gonna be using this tumblr as my fuck around art dumping ground cuz i needed a place to share the less finished stuff i do for fun. In other words this is a place for me to make art for fun again.

Anyway, expect to see Aladdin Broadway art from me cuz that's usually what I draw for fun.

(my sketchbook is stained cuz i used it to press flowers)

A look inside my Aladdin Broadway display case. I've got a lot of memorabilia I've collected over the years. Some of my favorites include:

the original souvenir program (2nd photo)

a copy of the script (3rd photo)

bread prop (3rd photo)

the heart-shaped box of baklava prop (4th photo)

More info is in the image descriptions. Feel free to ask me questions about items in my collection if you'd like to know more about them!

another aladdin sketchbook doodle. this one is from right before high adventure starts where Omar is convincing Kassim that they need to save Al

i've got a little bit more time on my hands lately so I'm trying to do more sketchbook stuff, and drawing these guys is always fun. I've drawn them so long it comes naturally at this point

Babkak comic cuz he's my boy. King of retorts.

Dialogue from right after the boys do their Babkak Omar Aladdin Kassim number and take donations so they can leave their life of crime behind. And then they only get one coin.
