DVD Cover – Pocahontas: Colonized

I don’t usually like putting disclaimers on my pics, I feel it takes away some of the fun, but just to be clear this, as well as the previous DVD cover and any future ones, aren’t meant to be taken too seriously or anything. This series is leaning into “bad end” scenarios for our Disney heroines, and that just kinda manifests differently for some films.

Anyway, Pocahontas is a character I’ve been fond of since I was a child. I believe her film was the first new movie I saw in theaters (I’d previously seen Pinocchio and Snow White in theaters, but obviously not when they were new). While it’s far from my favorite Disney animated feature, I do love the film’s use of colors and how it’s animated. Pocahontas also played a key role for my developmentally, as it was with her I have my earliest memories of being interested in feet. I had a McDonald’s-type little toy of her when I was a kid I used to play with (in a G-rated fashion, mind you), and she probably had a bigger effect on me than I really realize. Like many of the characters who were formative in my interests, I’ve managed to avoid drawing her up until now. This new DVD series seemed like a good chance to finally break the ice with her, and I used it to also bring in a couple other characters from her film, most notably Nakoma.

DVD Cover – Mulan: The Huns’ War Prize

So this is the culmination of a few different half-ideas into something I think could be pretty fun. This is the first entry in a series of faux DVD covers I’d like to do, each depicting a hypothetical “bad end” for a Disney princess (or similar Disney ladies). I opened with Mulan just because I’m particularly fond of her, and thought it’d be fun to do something a bit darker with her than I have up to now. This series will most likely be pretty slow-updating, like Hypno’s Harem or Near’s Drag Race, but I hope y’all will like them whenever they come out!
