Here be the champions of new

Mostly a blog about Sonic stuff, but sometimes other super hero francises as well.

OK, so, if this post looks familiar, it's because I had it on my other blog. BUT, I've since changed my mind on some things, and I've decided to put ALL my art on this blog, rather than have it scattered between several blogs. SO, don't worry, I'm not stealing anybody's art, @herosofthehallow is just my other blog. :D

Meet the twins Serena and Teeth!

I love when Raphael is just kind of the feminist of the group. Like I love when he just weirdly *gets it* easier than his brothers or Splinter.

Like that moment when they go back in time and see Oroku Saki trying to lure Tang Shen to him, Mikey says "Wait, Shredder was a good guy?" and Raphael replies "no, he was a creep." Means EVERYTHING TO ME.

And it's important to me because it showcases how much he isn't like the Shredder.

In various different versions of tmnt, Leonardo and Raphael are treated as mirrors of Hamato Yoshi and Oroku Saki. They're both hot tempered, like to fight, and even wield weapons that somewhat resemble each other.

But the Shredder, at the end of the day, is a creep. He is an entitled man who refused to take no from a woman. Every bit of anger he has is from a place of selfish entitlement.

Raphael get's mad when others are hurt, he gets mad when others are treated badly. His anger most frequently comes from a place of care, and when it does come from somewhere more selfish, he generally feels bad about it fairly quickly afterword's. Because he values his family.

So yeah, I like it when Raphael is accidently the feminist of the group. Because GOD does it show how different he actually is from Shredder.

We should also note that when the turtles were trying to persuade Tang Shen to pick Yoshi (Splinter) instead of Saki (Shredder) it was Raph who advices Shen to follow her heart, he doesn’t tell her who to pick, he just tells her that she knows who the good man is and he’s trusting that she’ll make the right choice on her own, and she takes Raph’s advice and picks Yoshi!

Raph also constantly calls out Donnie’s creepy behavior towards April in the early seasons, never sees his female opponents as lesser fights he instead treats them as equals, and he loves that Mona Lisa is stronger and better fighter than him, never once showing any sign that he feels his masculinity is being friended. He embraces the princess treatment she gives him XD

ACTUALLY NOW THAT YOU SAY THAT-!

This adds a new layer to the mirroring with Leo and Splinter, and Raph and Shredder. Because I was just thinking earlier how Leo feels weirdly more distant with Splinter than his brothers. Like to him, he treats Splinter more like a teacher than a father at times.

Whhhhich mirrors Shredder, who was more distant with his father than Splinter was.

THE LAYERS!!

[fabuloustrash05]

Personally I disagree, all of the Turtles perfectly reflect Splinter in one way or another (the good and bad of his characteristics). Just because the boys have some negative characteristics doesn’t have to mean that those are a parallel to Shredder.

Leo has his fathers loyalty and dedication to the ninja clan. Leo was also very passionate about Japanese culture, language, etc. much like Splinter. He can also be very patient and certainly more spiritual compared to the rest of his brothers. We see that even when he was a young man, Splinter took his ninja clan very seriously, to the point it almost pushed his wife and child away, and we see the same thing with Leo, especially in season 5 when he becomes the new sensei and how his brothers and friends worry about his well-being after taking up all the responsibilities. 

Raph inherited his father’s temper. Splinter actively admits that when he was a young man, he had a temper and could easily get angry through the slightest insults, and we still see it slipped through in his older years. Splinter and Raph also both have a passion in art. And they both went through the trauma of holding the woman they love’s dying body in their arms.

Donnie I’d say got his father’s intellect and passionate heart. Those Splinter is not a scientific genius, he has shown to be very intellectual and think logically about many situations much like Donnie. Donnie is also a hopeless romantic, he wears his heart on his sleeve, and we see that Splinter is very passionate when talking about Tang Shen. Both also were a part of love triangles. Donnie is also seemed to have a bit of a temper in the 2012 series so I’d argue that he also inherited his father’s hotheadedness much like Raph.

Mikey, though him and splinter interacted the least in the series, you can see that Mikey adores his father. We don’t get enough of it, but in the flashback episode when we see Splinter as still human, he’s seen teasing and being silly with Saki, and even a mutant rat Splinter has his moments where he’s being silly, so I like to assume that Mikey inherited his father’s goofy personality.

[herosofthehallow]

I do agree with everything you say about the turtles and their shared traits with Splinter, but I'm gonna have to disagree with the parallels thing. The 2012 series (and in various other series too, but they emphasize it more with the 2012 series, as it makes more sense with the lore of that one) use Leo and Raph as mirrors for Splinter and Shredder. Not in the sense that they have the exact same personalities or values, but that the dynamic between Leo and Raph, is similar to the dynamic that Splinter and Shredder when they were young. When Raph and Leo get into spats with each other, Splinter often tells them a cautionary tale from his youth that involves him and Shredder having gone through a similar thing.

But at the same time, Leo and Raph show a bond stronger than what Splinter and Shredder had. They are a positive reflection of what could have been. It also show's Splinter's fears, and his faults to an extent. He is frequently worried his son's are going to get into a fight that can't be mended. He see's Shredder's temper in Raph, and it scares him. Writing wise, it's very good way to show how much of an emotional scar Saki left on him. Because logically he knows Raph isn't like Saki, Raph has very different values, he's a good kid. But at the same time, he's very hurt, and the argument's between Leo and Raph remind him of that pain.

I love that during the scene when Raph admits he’s got a crush on Mona Lisa, Mikey gives Raph a list of reasons as to why he thinks his brother wouldn’t be into her. She’s bigger than him, she’s physically stronger than him and she’s proven to be a better fighter than him.

Raph then gets excited and expresses that those traits are exactly WHY he’s into her, and then says his iconic line:

Raph never once shows or says that he feels insecure about the fact that he likes a girl who’s better than him in combat or in physical strength. He also never feels as if his masculinity is being threatened from him being with Mona Lisa. His girlfriend is bigger, stronger and a better fighter than him and Raph LOVES and EMBRACES it!

Sonadow wedding

I really wanted to draw them with flowers in quills

[paracosmicka]

Here have this old animation sketch while I gather all my pregnant Shadow going into labor sketches I will be posting that after this so this is kinda like a “hey dw I’m not dead just busy I’m sorry gang”

Anyway I remember when I sketched the key frames for this I felt like this is what their first kiss would be like,,,,there was a storyboard with it but I literally didn’t animate any of that but I’ll give you the rundown for gits and shiggles

it’s basically Shadow and Sonic sparring and doing rival things and then Sonic staggers Shadow and tackles him and then they do that stupid thing that happens in movies when they both look at each other for like an eternity while the suspense builds up and then they kiss and I’m aroace but that shit gets me like ooooooooh they like each otherrrrrr and then my stomach does the thing and I’m smiling and lowkey giggling to myself ndjskanjfkskf weeeeeeeee aegoromantic things

Also idk if it’s noticeable bc it’s like a single frame or two but I tried drawing Sonic pulling away from the kiss (doing the “oh shit I literally just kissed my rival on the mouth without thinking I sure hope he doesn’t punch me in the face for this oops”) but Shadow doesn’t realize it and he sorta automatically follows Sonic’s mouth and still tries to kiss him for a second even after Sonic pulls away bc the emo hedgehog is touch starved as fuck and actually just wants to be held and comforted,,,,but yeah he makes himself look like an idiot there and Sonic realizes this and has that “ooooooh you want me so bad it makes you look stupid” expression for a microsecond before he just goes back to kissing Shadow.

It’s been like 3 or 4 years since I started this sonadow special interest and they still make me sick I lobe tem so muc 💕✨💥💥💥
