Kind of reminds me about someone saying to my biology teacher that the face on the drawing of the facial muscles was scary. Duh, it had no skin. Rolling Eyes

I personally thought that picture was pretty funny, actually. I immediately had to grab Janette - I told her I found a picture of Sally and Jack Skellington's son. Very Happy

Thanks for teaching us the wonderful ways of drawing Aladdin! BUT, sorry if I say this. That composite model of Aladdin reminds me of

"The Crow" - Real love is forever.

Rest is Peace Brandon Lee.

Someone should do one for Cassim and Saluk. I can't draw people, however, I sculpted and drew several cats when I took art classes. My teacher always loved my kitties. Probably because I read so much about them and looked at endless pictures of feline anatomy. I also did a flower for my grandmother.

Of course they couldn't be consistent - the model sheet for Aladdin changed repeatedly over the course of production! I tried to stick to the final model, though.

Following the movie is all fine and dandy, except for one problem.

Not even the animators could be 100% consistant!

I discovered this when I was trying to make a Sim Aladdin. I found that I was trying to make a Sim from pictures that quite honestly contradicted each other. Eventually, I ended up making a composite sketch. So far, I've had to do this with three characters - Aladdin, Mozenrath, and Sadira.

Wow. Some of the things you put there about Al, I hadn't noticed until now. Or at least not in detail.

Wow, those are some really good tips!

I guess I have some more tips. They're from my "How to Draw Aladdin" book. It doesn't have a lot of tips inside. It's mostly about the steps taken in drawing the characters. The tips might not make much sense without the pictures from the book. They're general and somewhat obvious. Some of these tips are a repetition of what Kirsten has written.

Aladdin: His nose has a slight downward curve. His hair is widest at eyebrow level. When drawing his whole body, make his shoulders broad and give him a wide stance (his feet should be far apart).

Princess Jasmine: The tops of her eyes have flatter curves while the bottoms are deeper and rounder. Her eyes have a gentle upward slant. She has a narrow waistline and very small feet.

Genie: He has a wide smile. His eyes are on a slight diagonal slant and are set close together. His beard ends in a distinctive spiral. He has broad, flowing shouldes and a body that tapers down to nothing at all. He's drawn with long, flowing lines. There are no sharp angles on this character.

Abu: He is a stylized character, with a large head over a thin, flexible body. His brow ridge extends past the ball of his head.

Jafar: He has a long, narrow face that always seems to be sneering. The ball of Jafar's head is small, with a long, angular jaw. He has broad, pointed shoulders that emphasize the length of his body and the wickedness of his character. Draw him with long lines and sharp angles. He has spider-like hands, which add to his sinister appearance.

Iago: Draw his body as a pear shape, with a small ball for his head.

The sultan's body is one big circle. Carpet is a rectangle. Rajah's body is a large circle in the front with a top and a bottom curve that connect it to a smaller circle in the rear.

Edit: Then again, some people might already own this book. Embarassed
