This Illustrator Reimagined Disney Characters As Gays In Quarantine And, TBH, It's Spot On

    Don't try to Zoom me unless you look like quarantined King Triton.

    If you're gay, there's probably, like, a 65% chance you've shaved your head at some point in the past month to grapple with quarantine.

    And nothing sums up being gay during quarantine quite like the illustrations by Tommy Taylor that envision what Disney characters would be doing right now if they were gays in lockdown.

    For example, Prince Eric went for the classic gay post-breakdown bleached hair.

    Aladdin, on the other hand, went for a traditional quarantine buzz cut.

    OFC, Gaston's been spending his time in quarantine doing at-home workouts, which is SO on brand.

    While Tarzan, naturally, tried his hand at making banana bread.

    And King Triton, among many others, eventually joined Aladdin in getting a buzz cut.

    Tommy is from South London, now lives near Wimbledon, and is known for reworking Disney characters. "I love reimagining the princes I grew up fancying into the men I still fancy today! It seemed natural as the whole world is in quarantine now that [the Disney men] would be too," he told BuzzFeed.

    Tommy has been drawing since he was about 10 years old and is mostly self-taught, too.

    He said that the images take about an hour-and-a-half to create, but it sometimes takes a couple days for the concept to come to him.

    "After the concept comes to me, I usually google facial expressions of the chosen character and see which fits the situation and then reimagine it from there!" he told BuzzFeed.

    He said, "I think being a queer illustrator and having a queer following, it gives a tiny insight into what these characters could be up to if they were part of society."

    "Body positivity also plays a big part, as I like to incorporate a slightly more realistic male figure, especially when there’s so much pressure during quarantine to be productive!" he told BuzzFeed.

    Finally, Tommy says he's apologetic if he's ruined your childhood, but honestly, we should all be so grateful that he blessed us with these images, and especially this one of the dad from Inside Out.
