Have you ever been sitting at home watching a Disney movie and wondered;
What would happen if the hero of this movie was a Calvin Klein underwear model?
Well, I'm not sure if you have ever asked yourself that question or what your answer would be. But I do know what David Kawena from Deviant Art's answer is.
I am going to use Aladdin as an example here simply because it is my all time favourite Disney movie. Besides, we are all familiar with the 'good boys and girls take off their clothes' scandal in the balcony scene, so I am fairly certain I won't be ruining any one's opinion of the movie or characters.

This is original move Aladdin, who we all know and love. |

| And this is David Kawena's vision of Aladdin. |
This is the link to David Kawena's Deviant Art page where you can check out (literally) many more Disney characters and also other illustrations. http://www.davidkawena.deviantart.com/ I strongly suggest you follow the link to this page because he is a truly talented illustrator (and just in case you were wondering, no... all of his illustrations are not this... graphic).
I really don't feel like it is necessary to point out the differences here. I'm pretty sure the artwork speaks for itself. But I would like to clear up for a second why I am including this in my blog. I think it is very important for designers and illustrators to think outside of the proverbial box of the status quo. Most people would not think to put Disney hero's in this type of a compromising position. I think the lesson here is that nothing is too weird to try.
Experiment with your work. Create things that most people wouldn't even dream of.
And, for David Kawena I have only one question.
Why no Disney heroine bikini models?
Always the conservative, Nicole
