I've had to draw a lot of the Princesses at work lately, so here's some of them that I'm allowed to upload. :) I was getting tired of drawing them in traditional Disney styles, so I decided to sketch them in a more anime/realism style in my spare time. Belle, Jasmine, and Ariel--probably my 3 favorite princesses to draw!

Interesting note: Apparently it's a Disney rule that whenever the Princesses are depicted together in a picture, they absolutely can NOT look at each other. They cannot appear to acknowledge each others' presence, because Disney has a policy against "mixing" different Disney worlds. You will notice this on all Disney products featuring the princesses. Weird, but kind of cool. O__o

*And yes, this rule also applies in the Kingdom Hearts games--none of the Princesses' worlds ever mix. I.e. You won't see Belle in Mulan's world, or Ariel in Belle's world, etcetc. :heart:

*Okay, because so many people are trying to disprove this policy........... If you DO see princess merchandise that has them "interacting", it's either made before the policy took effect or the way they interact is not immersive enough. Remember this rule applies to the PRINCESSES, not other characters like Mickey Mouse, etc. Also, in Kingdom Hearts, the moments when they interact do NOT take place in their worlds (i.e. Hollow Bastion is not a princess world).

What about kingdom hearts? I'd call that mixing... hmm....:ponders:

Cool tidbit of info though.

Love Belle here- she's always been my favorite.

That rule is........kinda weird since they have a book about a Princess Slumber Party or something like that.

Wow! I'm forever going to keep looking out for Disney Princesses stuff now to see xD
It's weird that if they're against it, they made the whole Disney Princesses range though D: *my poor small brain is so confused*

Anyways, your picture is really awesome :D I love the style you used, and especially the hair! :heart:

I'm glad you like Belle! In Kingdom Hearts, you will notice that none of the Disney characteres in different worlds ever meet each other. While Sora can meet them all, he can only meet them 1 world at a time. You will never see Belle wandering around in Mulan's world, for instance. :)

That is a very interesting piece of Disney trivia. Makes me want to go to a store and check it out :) Love the drawing as well, very nice.

They have the Disney Princesses franchise because, well.....it rakes in tons of money for Disney. :) Disney likes to advertise them all together because they know how popular they are with girls, but they have to work around that policy. I think it's a pain in the ass, personally. >D

Thanks, I'm glad you like the picture!

Everything in the Princesses line has stories for each individual princess, but I doubt the book will show all the princesses talking together in one slumber party. :)
