Prince Ali Ababa, or Aladdin.
in the original story, the magic carpet ride was a metaphor for a drug trip that Aladdin offers Jasmine, thus breaking her out of her palace walls and showing her a whole new world. The intricate rug patterns found in middle eastern and Persian rugs were designed by craftsmen who would brew a tea using Syrian Rue which they used to create color dyes that they used to create the rugs. This is why they were called magic carpets.

this drawing took me all day to figure out.
I kept redrawing and re-inking different parts as they were just looking off.
anyway, still not super happy with it, but I have to remind myself that finished, not perfect.
should've been a brain surgeon instead of an artist, at least there is certainty there.
sketch.
edit drawing and ink.
had to stop drawing and finished inking.
