[TMNT by mundane masterpost]

to be honest AAAHHHH WHAT THE FUCK???? ALREADY????? 19 DAYS LEFT??????? WHAT?????

I keep having these random realizations of "oh shit, that's real soon... I'm really doing this, huh?" and it feels so weird and crazy but if I keep taking about that I'll start talking about sad things (again)

Rise August: Couch Potato

Alt version with my own style-ish design changes for the characters

I've seen a few artists do their own iterations of TMNT so I guess this would be mine? My iteration based off the Rise designs? I suppose?? Idk I do too much stuff anyway so let's move on — but I did draw this version first and then got too in my head about whether or not people would like it so I uh redrew it because I'm a coward so here's the secret version:

I made Splinter have a more similar colour scheme to the 2012 Splinter, a brown rat with some pale marks and stubble on his face and tail.

The boys have slightly altered green tones — slightly darker shades than usual. They all also have facial marks, and I gave Raph his own birthmarks!! Their shell designs and stuff have simplified, no outlines, just solid colour (same with Leo's banana marks).

Raph is probably the biggest change — he has birthmarks, extra spiky scales, and tons of red in his skin!

I put in my own art style bits for this as well: I try to draw Rise as close to the actual style as I can, but for this I wanted to go for more of my style traits. The knees have swirls and the limbs are a bit more loose. There's some more detail and strands in the hair for Splinter. Raph's toes are claw-like. The boys' hands are rounded out, a lil' pudgy. I prefer drawing rounder edges, so I included a lot of those. I also (on occasion) do this style thing with my lineart where I add some shades and tones to it so it has multicolour... things? I dunno what to call it, but it looks dope as heck. Only issue with the art choice is it takes a while to draw so I don't do it a lot, only for special art pieces (like this one)!

a reason why Spilter struggles to tell the turtles apart even though they are different types of turtles, is that rats struggle to see red and colours made of red this along with the fact a rat's eyesight is bad anyway makes it hard for Splinter to tell the turtles apart sometimes

New drawing!! Donnie reference for me ig. As you can see from my previous drawing, the art has left me lol. I actually have no clue if this reference sheet will help me in the long run because I really prefer the random black pen drawings I made when testing new pens.

Also I am much better at drawing bigger bodied characters than skinny scrunklies lol

mikey used to crawl under furniture as a tot to the point that splinter had to "mikey proof" every single dresser, bed and cabinet.

the proofing is still there, dusty and forgotten but there.

This was for a fluff prompt, which was “sleep”. Dad-Splinter and Raph getting head scritches makes me soft, so I drew this. Decided to go with a blue color palette just cuz
