Disney Hunks
I'll admit it, I had a crush on Aladdin and I know some of you do too, don't deny it. Well, if his G-rated rendering wasn't enough to make you swoon for him then check out this shot:
Oh yes, that is our diamond in the rough in a jock strap looking all sultry, make way for prince Ali. The artist is David Kawena, brought to my attention by Alden on Twitter.
I would have never known about this if it weren't for Twitter, see what you're missing out on people!?
Here's another for extra measure, Phoebus from The Hunchback of Notre Dame:
These aren't the only heroes that have been redrawn for a mature audience, if you want more (and knowing my readers you probably do) you can check out David's Deviant Art gallery of Disney Heroes.
Also seen on OhLaLa Mag.
Aladdin looks like a smoother less muscley version of you!

I can't stop staring! Somebody help!
Truthfully, I'm probably just jealous I didn't do these first.

I don't think I ever had a thing for a Disney cartoon character. Characters from Paul Dini's DC Cartoons, on the other hand... well...
*drools whilst picturing Green Arrow...*

Prince Eric is totally the hottest one. It confirms what I thought: if I was a Disney princess, I would be Ariel!

I had a crush on Aladdin, too. It was a whole new world!

Nice! Meanwhile -- try imagining seeing these guys in person. A few years back Disney had some kind of musical show at Animal Kingdom that had to something with Tarzan. I vaguely remember roller skating and singing a la STARLIGHT EXPRESS. I definitely DID NOT FORGET the loincloth though!

My boyfriend is officially hiding under his animation desk as I type this.

I have to agree with someone above, Aladdin does look like a smoother less muscular version of you, Adam.
Me, I always had a crush on Tazan...

I'm surprised you would even dare post these with how nasty the big D is about their IP. Pretty hot though nonetheless...

I'm a bit disappointed, actually. He turned all the disney heroes into slightly more muscled twinks.
I hate what he did for Price Eric-- my favorite.
