"Splinter Challenge 2026" ~ Strength in Weakness Version ~ Days 1-8

I knowww, I just didn't make the deadline of Father's Day for posting what I have so far for this art challenge of the most famous rat dad in history-- But hey, better late than never! :) For this challenge, I rolled both a D20 and D6 dice, and then did that specific challenge prompt with that specific character with Splinter. (1- Leo, 2- Raph, 3- Don, 4- Mikey, 5- Lotus). This was the perfect kind of practice that I needed to really get more experience in drawing SIW Splinter. I don't draw him enough, so this helped change that. :)

Enjoy!

Day 1 - Stars

Day 2 - Resist

Day 3 - Break Day

Day 4 - Humor

Day 5 - Expectation

Day 6 - Monster

Day 7 - Privacy

Day 8 - Medicine

That's all I got so far! :) Hope you enjoyed!

To God be the glory!

"Splinter Challenge 2026" ~ Strength in Weakness Version ~ Days 9- 13

Here we go~ These are more sketches I have from the "Splinter 2026 Challenge"! And for those who will ask, yes, every sketch I have made so far is canon in SIW. ;) Take that as you will.

Day 9 - Instinct

Day 10 - Youth

Day 11 - Pride

Day 12 - Absence

Day 13 - Nourish

Once again, I had a BLAST drawing my characters as itty bitty toddlers, and Splinter being younger too. (You can tell how young based on the size of his beard!) These sketches also helped me to relieve some built up stress that I've had these last few weeks. (Dealt with family drama, prep for my sis and cousin's weddings, starting a new job, AND playing part in the skit at VBS.) But God pulled me through!

Can't wait to begin the next batch of sketches once life slows down and I get a new sketchbook! :) By the way, while we're on the subject, I have a question-- would you all want a quick sketchbook tour now that I've finished it? Comment down below if you do, and I'll see what I can do. ;)

To God be the glory!
