Does anyone know if the Disneyland artists will draw a character of your choice? I want to get some classic characters which are hard to find.

They don't "trace" it. Me being an artist I can tell you that they do that just for the general shape and proportion. After doing a rough sketch they add all the details like the eyes, hair, dress, etc. and they add their own artists spin. Disney characters are very hard to draw perfectly and perfection is a big deal to the company so having to partially "trace" to get a rough idea isn't as big as a deal as you think it is. Afterall you wouldn't want your picture of Belle from beauty and the Beast to look like some stupid creature from the world of lilo and stitch - SarahInWonderland  42.9 #3917 11:03PM
they will only draw what is in the book, so unless its in there they can't do it. - chris.  2507.3 #24 9:25PM
so they won't draw me dave vs. panda vs. hot dog? - MayBie  1864.2 #40 9:46PM
You can pick the pencil colours and maybe some words added. - theDebsterM  138.2 #2475 9:48PM
maybe they will. - chris.  2507.3 #24 9:50PM
Thanks guys! I really want to get an Oswald drawing or Horace & Clarabelle - xsdesign  421.7 #303 10:21PM
they might have oswald, i would check off the page the book is pretty big for drawings. - chris.  2507.3 #24 10:23PM
Thanks! I'll check that out next time I'm there. - xsdesign  421.7 #303 10:25PM
I think I saw Oswald there- I was looking for a steamboat Willie :) - SteamboatMinnie  309.9 #564 11:14PM
Am I the only one who doesn't think this is worth it?! They trace the sketches and it's $35. - cynDOLEwhip  744.1 #137 10:36PM
It's magical - HotDiggityDogDaddy  1112.2 #74 10:53PM
It's not traced- I've watched them do it. Yes I am that creepy girl who watches the artists... :X - SteamboatMinnie  309.9 #564 11:08PM
^^^^^ This - SarahInWonderland  42.9 #3917 11:12PM
I got one before I think it's totally worth it. The artist was so awesome. We chatted for a while and when I came back to pick up my drawing she was teaching a little girl how to draw Ariel's eyes. So cute :) - Jillian  765.4 #129 11:12PM
plus they constantly sharpen their pencils. that, in itself, is A M A Z I N G !! - HandMeAChurroImmaFaint  1803.3 #42 11:13PM
At Off the Page they will. Not sure what their pricing is but I'd say it's worth it. - MayBie  1864.2 #40 9:23PM
I think its around $35 for one character. And $60 for two.. if I remember correctly - AlexGold  121.2 #2718 9:28PM
Im tempted to do this depending on character choices and poses - shadowgamer  1959.3 #36 9:34PM
Can't do star wars, I think, but if it's a Disney only property, I would think it's okay. - bluefairy  627.4 #174 10:01PM
I was thinking something to do.with Alice and.Hatter - shadowgamer  1959.3 #36 10:51PM
There's a store on both sides of Main Street. Not sure if they'll draw any character, but its worth a shot to just ask.  - BaseballMickey_CM  2863.8 #16 9:49PM
SOMETHING YOU DONT KNOW! 😱 - HotDiggityDogDaddy  1112.2 #74 9:50PM
one does silhouette's and one does watches... - MayBie  1864.2 #40 9:53PM
Its in Furtuosity and Disneyana - BaseballMickey_CM  2863.8 #16 9:55PM
Wow 35-60 bucks for a drawing? Sounds like a dream job. Are they paintings or pretty much just sketches? - ELCAPITAN  55.4 #3653 11:52PM
Depends- I'm pretty sure you can get color for more $$$ and sketch for less. - SteamboatMinnie  309.9 #564 12:25AM
I talked to a cast member on Thursday and she said that they have a bunch of new sketches designed for the artists, but have to wait for Florida to catch up on theirs. One of the new sketches is Oswald though! Approve it Disney!!! - xsdesign  421.7 #303 11:11AM
Always waiting on Florida - Mouse4life  1085.8 #78 11:12AM
yeah i talked to a previous artist before, they submit a lot of stuff but it has to be approved. last time i asked they were trying to get more mother gothel stuff in. - chris.  2507.3 #24 11:13AM
