One Brain Cell

Just an artist with too many ideas and a small attention span. Call me Kei, it’s easier that way. If anyone has art requests use the ask thingie.

I haven’t posted much because I’ve been busy but I decided to do some Gerudo!Twilight drawings and here’s a little wip! I like the idea of Twilight fighting a whole army alone just to protect his people it just satisfies my brain 😌

I’ll try to finish this but I can’t promise much-

The clothes were inspired by the Gerudo clothing from the Zelda games and I mostly got the inspiration to draw him from the fic “A Wolf in Kings Clothing” by @thesacredtwink and @lidoshka ‘s drawings of Gerudo!Twilight! I’ve based most of his design from their versions of him.

Ok so I got the motivation to start on the third chapter of There are New Beginnings, but the Nightmares Still Remain and I also decided to start on some of the other three redesigns

With that being said here you have 2012 Casey’s, or Striker’s, redesign!

Again, just a sketch for now since I’m working on doing lineart for the turtles first then I’ll get into Casey, April, and Karai’s redesigns

I just couldn’t help myself with drawing Casey :)

[theranchhand]

Was the cause of the lightning on donnie karai and the 4 fold trap???

Yep, I’m a firm believer all that electrocuting didn’t leave a mark. She still very much regrets what she did though.

[theranchhand]

I was trying to wait until I had all four lineart and colored but I couldn’t help myself so here are my redesigns for my Mutant Apocalypse crossover fic.

I still have to make Mikey’s but once I’m fully done with all of them I’ll post them!

I’m also still deciding if I should also draw 2012 Casey, April, and Karai but we’ll see-

[theranchhand]

This trend felt like something Casey would do lol

“You like my brother?!?” ~Raph (Casey was never seen again)

Anygays Caseynardo has sunken it’s claws into my heart so expect more in the future

[chatxkilluaxnoir]

Yessss, feed me that Caseynardo goodness!

Thanks for the great animatic!!

Also @toothlesshat I think you would like this video (the creator has other cool stuff too); for your (and mine ofc) Caseynardo needs.

[theranchhand]

Lol yes, Raph is the third wheel that unfortunately gets stuck dealing with their dorky asses.

He’s also the protective type but also very tired of their pining for sure lmao

[theranchhand]

Hii…

Hiii…

How y’all doing…?

I know I’ve been gone for a while but I’ve been busy while life and I just had an pre-MPA concert which is just preparing our band for our upcoming competition and it was stressful to say the least.

Anyways I don’t have TMNT stuff ready yet but I do have this little drawing of one of my avatar ocs because I’ve been on an avatar brain rot since I watched the new movie-

This is Rä’nox he is a warrior from one of the Metkayina clans :) (not from Awa’atlu, a different clan)

I actually put more effort and time into coloring so enjoy!

[theranchhand]

I know I haven’t posted in a while but I’ve been busy, have a little school doodle of my oc Ralph

It was a little side profile practice since I mostly suck at those

Ok ok this was really random and literally just had the thought but what are your thoughts on Ronin Mikey somehow meeting turtle tot 12 Leo? Like how do you think either of them would react to each other?

!!!!!! OOOOOOO-!!!!

If Ronin Mikey ever did meet 12 Leo as his turtle tot self, this older turtle would most likely be incredibly torn emotionally because on one hand he's getting major flashbacks to when his Leo was small and innocent and he'd also be incredibly afraid to really interact with the toddler because in Ronin Mikey's eyes he's too dirty, too tainted to mess with something that's not like him, that's too pure and innocent for the likes of him. But at the same time he'd desperately want to protect 12 Leo cuz he's a child. 12 Leo who hasn't experienced any trauma nor pain like his actual aged self did. That alone would make Ronin Mikey extremely protective over the small turtle tot. He'd try to keep his distance but at the same time much like 12 Leo's brothers and the Rise boys, he'd always keep a close eye on the toddler, ready to intervene at a moment's notice. The irony of the situation isn't lost on him either, that he was now taking care of his big brother (even if it's an alternate version), just as Ronin Leo had done for him throughout their lives. Ronin Mikey unknowingly ends up being a lot like Ronin Leo in this sense and regard when it comes to children.

12 Leo on the other hand would take one look at Ronin Mikey and in his typical way would not leave the older black clad turtle alone. This turtle toddler would harass Ronin Mikey with his innocent, childlike way, smiling and making grabby hands at the other turtle whenever he showed up. Toddling up to him in childish excitement whenever he sees him, loudly calling out to him in his lispy two/three year old voice (calling him Rwonin, since he can't pronounce things correctly). 12 Leo will also talk to him in his child babbling, chatting about everything and anything that popped up in his little toddler brain. If he sees Ronin Mikey having a bad day, the small turtle tot will place his favorite blanket on the older turtle in attempt to comfort him, getting a bit teary eyed if he sees Ronin Mikey is super upset. It's almost as if in some way, in that classic Leo sixth sense, that he knows that Ronin Mikey is family, and that he's hurting and in his toddler way is trying to make him feel better just as he does with his brothers (the 12 boys and Rise boys).

Basically they'd become the definition of angry bitter old man who hates the world and who's super tired ends up accidentally taking in a sweet, feral baby who makes life a little bit more bearable.

Here’s just some 2003 Leo doodles plus Casey being a dick because ✨yes✨

This is my first time drawing any of the 2003 turtles (or characters) but I hate drawing the turtles’ feet, the two toes are so awkward to draw but overall they’re so cute :)

Also I haven’t finished the 2003 show so I didn’t add any scars on Leo, once I finish the show though I will

(Update: I forgot to add a little something so I changed it but it’s nothing major)

[theranchhand]

I was drawing 2003 Casey and I’m conflicted-

WHY DID I MAKE HIM PRETTY?!? I DONT EVEN KNOW HOW I DID IT OR HOW TO FIX IT

Now if I ever post more of 2003 drawings y’all gon get pretty Casey Jones

[theranchhand]

This is just some dumbassery I made during a 26 hour car drive the other day and I wanted to share

This was what inspired that little vid

[theranchhand]

These are some little doodles based on some of the scenes in “When The World Crumbles” by @tmnt-obsessed-ace

Here are some closeups-

The last one isn’t really a scene in the story it’s just based off of something that’s mentioned in the latest chapter (I think it’s the latest chapter?) and it’s just Leo forcing the middle children to take his affection :)

Also this was my first time drawing rottmnt April and I love her—

[pastadorable]

My feed here SUCKS so…

IF YOU POST ROTTMNT REBLOG THIS AND ILL FOLLOW!!

BONUS POINTS IF YOU ART!!!!

[theranchhand]

Hey uh, what program do you use for editing?

I usually use capcut for editing :)

[bogleech]

Okay reblog if you’re an artist who STRONGLY PREFERS reblogs with commentary

People are apparently under the impression that reblogging someone’s art and adding a comment is frowned upon and that can’t possibly be true, every artist I know of sees a reblog-comment as like the ultimate definitive reward for their hard work.

Obviously don’t feel bad for NOT adding a comment if you’re shy or just don’t know what to say, but if there’s something you would like to say about a drawing you’ve liked enough to reblog, I’m pretty sure most artists crave hearing it.

[thesnadger]

This applies to art, fic, dumb theories, whatever! I totally love reading tags and commentary!

Definitely re-emphasizing that ALL reblogs, likes, etc are awesome! So don’t feel bad/feel obligated to add something if you don’t want to, but don’t hold back if you DO wanna add something because you’re worried it’s rude.

[amoralyn]

I once read someone’s post saying “NEVER ADD A COMMENT WHEN YOU REBLOG SOMEONE’S WORK CAUSE YOU’RE TAKING ATTENTION AWAY FROM THEM” and it’s what prevented me from doing so for a time, until I became a creator of stuff myself and I can say that’s absolutely untrue. For one, I’m not a five year old who needs all the attention to be on me all the time. For another, the fact that someone would take the time to sit down and put real effort into writing something, whether as a comment or in the tags, means so much to me and is the most inspiring. Finally, you have a voice too, and you have as much right to speak it as I do :)

SO COMMENT AWAY, MAKE SOMEONE’S DAY :D

[theranchhand]

I love whenever I get comments from a reblog it makes me feel so giddy about my work
