This reminds me of The Alchemist for some reason... even though I don't think there was a donkey in the whole book.

ah yes well, that book does take place in Israel, or Iran right?

Well with all the biblical references it really should, but it's actually Spain and northern Africa (Egypt mostly)

There are many Muslims in it so that makes a lot of sense.

I like your version of Jesus. He looks very humble and ordinary and rather cute if I may be so bold. The donkey is well drawn, too. It's all stylistic, yet accurate. I suck at drawing animals. :d

Thanks! Yes, I was illustrating how Jesus was still a king, though humble, next to a king with a lot of power, riches, ect.

Animals are not my forte either, believe me, I need a lot of practice. I used a lot of reference for this one, and I am glad how he or she came out. I love dokeys, especially miniature ones, THEY ARE SO ADORABLE!!!!

Donkeys? Jesus APROVES.

Lovin his face. He looks a tad like Dreamworks Moses.

That movie influences me a lot in my work, it was so beautifully done! I love that style of drawing, and it really fits middle eastern looking people

yes, they draw beautiful men... Disney has a couple good ones, Aladdin and the transformed Beast, though I among the few that think so....

Seriously, idk why people don't like human Beast much ._. He's lovely! Naveen's nice too, btw x) Personally, I like Sinbad's design.

I know! In my opinion anything that Glen Keane designs is perfect!

And yes, totally forgot about Naveen! He is in the movie so little (well, as a man anyway) But he's a looker!

Sinbad has awesome design, all the characters are beautifully done, and I love the animation in that movie, it's very flowing. The fight scenes are incredible too!

Yessss, all the fight scenes are wonderful! Actually, the whole movie is wonderful... why every movie I love from begginings of 2000 decade was a boxoffice failure? ;_;
