A FLASH BLACK MOMENT:

Harlem Debutante ball, 1940s………

I recently watched Gargoyles for the first time, and I immediately knew I had to draw them because every single gargoyle design on this show kicks ass.

Newsies headcannon alert

I like to imagine that the brooklyn newsies, like spot, are tiny newsies but tough and fearsome. Like "who wants Brooklyn?" land of the tiny feisty little geckos and everyone turns away.

Vice versa, I imagine that the Bronx newsies are all beefy, big guys/gals/nonbinary pals, and look all imposing and scary until you see them "aww" over a stray kitten. Anyways-

Caught up on Gargoyles comics so here’s some fan art I’m still fond of.

kinda obsessed with how some random tuesday in november 2022 newsies uk started and brooklyn was all girls and that was that. i never looked back. havent referred to the brooklyn newsies as men since. those girls r so important to me.

You know when you realize you’re still in character when you listen to Brooklyn’s here and when the Bronx newsies say “So’s da Bronx!” And you get all giddy because your character loves the Bronx newsies

NR!Borough Leaders!

Howdy big kids! Here’s the semi-official designs for the Newsies Rewritten Borough leaders! I wanted to draw them for a while now! These are also F2U designs as long credit is given to this account or to @flinttflakes as I will occasionally draw something there.

More info under the cut!

As each borough post mentioned, newsies color themselves by borough to show solidarity and pride of where they’re from! Manhattan is blue, Staten Island is green, Queens is yellow, Bronx is orange, and Brooklyn is red! Anyways, about the leaders:

Jack “Cowboy” Kelly: Jack’s design was based off Herrick’s Highschool’s Jack Kelly, played by Tristan Surajbali (he was so good. I love him to bits.) Gave him the icon blue shirt mixed with the OG Jack Kelly red handkerchief around the neck and the cowboy hat.

Cora “Aussie” Foster: Aussie is an oc by sundaymorningtv on tumblr. Not having a description from them, I just envisioned Aussie being a redhead with curly hair and it looks pretty good!

Georgina “Georgie”: Georgie truly belongs to olitheheadphoneskid23. As Georgina has a Greek origin, I went with a Greek appearance and also gave her the waistcloths to kind of show it.

Julian “Smalls” Hunt: Smalls is based on Julian DeGuzman from the live broadway recording, so he is Filipino. His outfit changed the most as I wanted it to be more aligned with the Bronx’ orange color and different from Georgie’s yellow.

Salvatore “Spot” Conlon: Spot’s designed is based on Tommy Bracco and Gabriel Damon for the most part, you can’t really tell there was a Bracco influence on Spot as he’s wearing the OG Spot’s clothes but once I get close up shots it should look more accurate!

If I had my way Jharrel Jerome would be voicing both Miles from the get-go because he is literally an Oscar-winning actor and is capable of doing that. It does not make sense that Miles being afro-latino is like a key part of his character's identity but he has never been voiced by an actual afro-latino (to my knowledge) until now. And it's his doppelganger
