While I might not have gotten to draw as much as the last couple of magma jams (Due to trying to finish the nightmare) I did make a couple of pieces that I love
The first one I did was for @defero2k6 and their cowboy AU that I absolutely adore
The second was a collab with @bobbypeach @jade-of-mourning and @octolingkiera where we gave the rise boys their unmutated species of turtle.
I seriously love how it turned out, and had an absolute blast chatting and drawing with this group!
Thank you so much for hosting these and giving this fandom/community such an incredible weekly event to connect to eachother. Everyone who helps run these magmas deserves all the love for the work you all put into this! 💜
I am adoring joining these every week and getting to know more and more artists (along with staring at more incredible art in awe)
My first piece was a party/sparklers/glow sticks inspired idea. 🎇
My second was on @revanagade 's dance floor that she drew for everyone to add their dancing turtles on, her and I also collabbed to add a Donnie (mine)and Leo (hers) in there together!
The whole dancefloor, it makes me so happy to see so many incredible artists in one piece!
Here's Reva photobombing my screenshot.
And I thought that rendered clothes on un-rendered Donnie was hilarious
I joined and had no clue what to draw, I was thinking of maybe drawing 1 or 2 pieces.
By the end of the magma I had 6 pieces, cheek cramps and red eyes from how hard I was laughing (I drew some cursed things)
While I was waiting for a spot for my original idea I spotted the Arthur meme and did a quick drawing of April in that meme
I'm dealing double damage with the next one, if y'all know what I mean
I'm sorry for this one, please don't end me...
(also the fact that @theartsybat understood what I was drawing with three panels with squares and triangles had me rolling on the floor)
Saw an empty spot and drew that one William Dafoe meme there
Also @pepfnaartupstart 's reply to this
Someone in the call said something about the pizza time Tobey Maguire meme and I had nothing else to draw at that moment so we have a Mikey with no thoughts behind his eyes
Me looking through memes for ideas while on call with @revanagade @bobbypeach @octolingkiera and @pepfnaartupstart and spotting the Mike Wazowski meme
"I have a really cursed idea" Sends meme to the group "Do y'all see what I'm putting down?"
Legitimately had tears running down my face, eyes bright red, and couldn't draw a straight line from how hard I was laughing
And then peachy and I decided to make it into her 'no bitches Leo' thought bubble
And then we all absolutely lost it when @vulstare and @sardonic-sonnets joined the thought bubble chain.
Leonardo Wazowski had heads turning
But, I couldn't stop my cursed train there, no, because the next day what do I do?
Lin Manuel Miranda Donnie...
Finally while on call with the gang once again we noticed a lack of spiderman pointing memes and had most of the crew there the above names plus @jade-of-mourning and @defero2k6 with us planning this we were able to get a whole page for this collab and its one of my favorite collabs I've done
I did the lineart for the background and @jade-of-mourning did the colour!
I added Congrats!Donnie (I haven't told y'all anything about him yet, but his story is coming) to this meme since we'd made it into an AU collab
Once again, tagging everyone who added to this collab:
(I want to credit the artists, but please let me know if you would like me to remove your tag)
(also tell me your au if I haven't added it so that I know which au they're from, I have placeholder names for now 💜)
The first piece I did came to me in the middle of the day on Friday when I was thinking of drawing just a space bar key from a keyboard, and then sat up in bed and decided I needed to draw a space milkshake bar!
I drew the spacebar as a place for others to add their characters!
(Creators credited at the end of this post)
The Donnie behind the space bar is my art
Looking at ideas for this Donnie I found a couple of posts on Pinterest that inspired me to design a whole spacesuit for him
One of my current favorite AU's is @duckcrumbs space AU, and due to the theme being space, I absolutely had to draw their Leo
Once again, a small detail on Pinterest inspired me to draw this cracked shell with the prison dimension inside it for Leo
And lastly, one of the things I kept thinking of was negative space pieces
The first one I did was of the large krang in the background after they close Mikeys portal at the end of the movie.
(this guy)
The second negative space piece was the scene where Mikey, Raph and Donnie opened the portal and saved Leo from the prison dimension
I really enjoyed this theme, it was really fun and there was some really incredible art created.
Thank you again to the people who run these jams every week, y'all all deserve a crisp high five for the effort you all put into it!
Crediting the other artists in the space bar under the cut!

This was a fun one (I say that every time but it's true)
This past week has been filled with dreams and nightmares *Wink wink*
I am really enjoying learning how to render and draw on one/two layers
Of course I had to draw the twins in their onesies from down with the sickness (Donnie's is the robot design from that EP)
There were some more colour palette challenge ones that have really been testing me
And finally I got inspired by @sardonic-sonnets who did an unsettling piece and wanted to try my hand at it (putting this one under the cut because it's bright and unsettling)
Thanks @weeklymagmas for hosting this every week, I know I'm not the only one who looks forward to this every weekend, and anyone who helps run this deserves a big thank you from the community 💜
I had this whole thing planned out since in an upcoming fic I have a chapter called "The obligatory Beach Episode" and was going to draw a scene from there, and as soon as I start, my brain blanks completely...
So I instead went deep into the family photos for this jam, I didn't want to do a traditional beach, so I did a lake beach that I used to visit, the wooden swim dock and finding a big log with a friend to use as a boat brought back a ton of old memories
It was a busy weekend so I didn't get to draw much on the magma, but I am quite happy with how this one turned out
Here's the unrendered version too because I love seeing the difference!
And of course, thank you to @weeklymagmas for hosting again, you guys rock!
