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-

Dimetro doodle request for @samissimo

Love this little guy! My starter the first time I ever played Champions when it first came out. Drawing this guy has pretty much convinced me to play it again, as I just recently finished replaying the original and have been thinking about Champions ever since. I've replayed it a bunch, but can't remember the minutia of the story. (Like I remember the overall main events and it's so great but if you were to be like "tell me the entire plot of fossil fighters champions" idk if i could do it). So I think it's time.

Babkak doodle from my sketchbook that I decided to play around with a bit. Love drawing this dood. Just a really good shaped guy.

Would you guys be at all interested in seeing my Aladdin stuff in my sketchbook? I do a lot of sketching, and don't always finish things so if you want to see me post sketches here I can start doing that

Crazy that this illustration was done about a year ago now! I'm still super proud of it, especially the texture on her dress.

I really love the fortune teller in Aladdin even though she's a minor character. She just seems really funny and cool. I think that she and BOAK are friends for sure.

Sorry about the lack of new art lately, I've been working on a rather large project so that's been taking up the majority of my time. I'll definitely be sharing it here when it's done so stay tuned!

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!

Morning warmup. It’s -20 out and the birds are extra round

Requests are officially closed. If you've sent me one before I've posted this, I'm working on it and it will get done, but no more for now :) thanks guys

dangerrrr water rising… shadoooows of dark creatures…

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.

Silkscreen print done for my boy Brian Gonzales. I made him an art package back in May and this was one of the pieces.

When you do silkscreen, you print one color at a time and have to line all the ink up each time, so I included the other two pics so you guys can see the process. So in total, there are three colors used: first the lightest green, then a darker green, then the darkest green on top.

Brian is literally such a legend. Nicest dude ever, and such a talent. Love that king.

She's so devious, I love her. Never used her on any of my teams, but I always thought she was so cute. Little poison lady.

Dynal doodle request for @hydrias

I haven't played through the entire story of Fossil Fighters since it first came out when I was like 8, but man I need to play through it again. I replayed Champions heaps of times though.

Broadway BOK actors throughout the years. Did this one I believe in May of 2022.

Bonus photo of the boys with their prints. Love these legends. And love this pic so much <3

BOK silkscreen prints. They are each 6x8 inches in size. Done for the current Broadway cast back in Feb 2022.

Made these in my college silkscreen class and my teacher straight up jumpscared me and asked "who's Kassim" when I was printing and so I explained he's from Aladdin. Tell me why this man then said "mmm, looks like Aladdin in leather"

I wanna draw some vivosaurs so send me suggestions! Preferably from Fossil Fighters or Fossil Fighters Champions only, I'm not big on Frontiers.

EDIT 1/28: these are closed now sorry friends!

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 :))

Tell me your Aladdin Broadway headcanons or ask me about mine! Or ask me any Aladdin related questions honestly. I've been thinking about/ drawing these dudes since 2015 so I've got a lot bouncing around in my skull about Aladdin and co.

(also if you requested something in my Aladdin art requests, I'm working on it I promise, just been really busy lately. since these are just typing i can post answers quicker)

For the Aladdin requests, how about a scene from my Broadway sequel headcanon?

Had fun drawing Iago slowly losing his cool here as he realizes who he's talking to. The fourth panel is my favorite. Also really love how Omar looks here.

Original cast because I can. And I gave Aladdin his monkey's fist necklace because him not wearing it in the second half of the show is so lame, so after the show ends and he can be himself again I think he would wear it. Gotta match the homies.

(ps i have aladdin broadway requests open for now! so drop me a suggestion if you want! and if you already have I'm working on it)

"So here he is now with his band!"

Prince Ali animation I did last year that I'm still super proud of. I love the beginning of Act 2 BOK outfits, so pretty. I love animating sparkles so these costumes are perfect. Plus I love these guys.

sunny days make me want to stay in a tropical oasis

Iago from Broadway's Aladdin. Love this evil little dude.

(Art from 2021)

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.

"Couldn't we just send a strongly worded letter?"

Illustration of the beginning of High Adventure from Aladdin Broadway featuring Babkak, Omar, and Kassim (my faves). This was something I drew earlier this year as a birthday gift for Brad Weinstock the actor who currently plays Omar :))

The buildings in Agrabah are so much fun to draw, I love em.

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)
