Normal Human AU designs for the 2012 turtles! Headcanons and AU details below cut!
In this AU they're all just normal highschoolers, no ninja bullshit, no Kraang, no foot, they get to be kids. These 4 were adopted by Hamato Yoshi after he lost his wife, and were raised alongside Miwa.
Design details:
- Donnie is 6"0, Leo is 5"7, Raph is 5"5(and mad about it) and Mikey is 5"3.
- Made it so Leo and Raph resemble each other more, like their og designs.
- All for are wasian but the white half hit Donnie and Mikey way harder.
Headcanons for each character:
Raph
- wears chunky boots to compensate for his height
- Takes the best care of his hair out of the 4, he's kinda vain abt it. I like the idea bc it contrasts his tough guy shit
- Gym rat, clearly
- Guns are ALWAYS out, unless he's wearing a leather jacket
- He's in a band, plays drums
- Tags and graffitis, does art for fun. His tag is Sai
- Member of the hockey team, its how he befriends Casey
- Everyone that isn't friends with him is scared of him.
Leo
- Handsome pretty boy, the girls and the gays love him.
- Ran for president of student council at Splinters suggestion, he won.
- 70% of his clothing is space heroes merch.
- Fairly popular and well known
- Silver medalist karate champion
Donnie
- Best student in their entire school, but MOST of his grade is carried by his contribution to their research department. His ass sucks at the social studies and humanities.
- Nobody knows who this man is, he's always doing labwork
- Paid internship at TCRI. TCRI is a shitty and corrupt company, but Donnie is a fantasti asset and they do EVERYTHING in their power to keep him off their ass and complacent.
- Bros got eyebags for days and is high on caffeine
Mikey
- Fairly popular and well liked just like Leo! Except he cant remember most ppls names, so he makes up nicknames
- Always invited to parties, he and Leo take Donnie and Raph as their plus one cuz ppl dont usually invite them
- Bros got adhd and it is uNMEDICATED, he does not do well at school
- No one bullies him, people knows he has ties to Raph and people are too scared of Raph.
General Headcanons:
- The four barely look like each other, so even though they have the same surname ppl dont think they're related. They assume its a freaky coincidence
- They all have their own friendgroups at school, but they always hang out outside of school. The other 3 have to drag Donnie with them
- They've got a bunch of pets at home. Namely 4 pet turtles named Sai, Bo, Chuck, and Tana, a rat named Splinter, and a snake called Karai. Raph is their main caretaker.
- They all did martial arts as kids but only Leo kept up with it untill Highschool.
- All 4 are fantastic swimmers and people are always surprised to see that Donnie has any physical prowess
- April has been friends with them since middleschool
redraw of this piece i made 3 years ago in 2023 (D:)
hello. closeup
the og piece is soooo important to me, and for two reasons;
one, from an emotional standpoint, it was like the second painting i made of raph and casey and the one that solidified my obsession (and emotional dependency oops) with them for me
two, from a technical standpoint, i realized how much i enjoyed rendering this way in digital painting, and gave me a result i liked and was interesting to look at (i still use similar techniques today!!!)
so thank you raph and casey for everything you did for me 🙏🙏 forever my goats
Just two regular average teens surrounded by not so average teens- ✨
I tried to do something a bit less chaotic, so I hope this is suitable for my first DTIYS ("Draw This In Your Style") ! I always thought it was interesting how the groups felt divided- That it was always the Turtles & April (The "main characters"-) and Casey & the Girls (The "secondary characters"-), you know? So I wanted to draw those groups for the DTIYS !
Feel free to take creative liberties with this ! You don't have to include the accents I did or even draw the same facial expressions ! Feel free to do your thing ! ☺️👍✨
I think they could've been really special if the writing was better + April actually got to have meaningful screen time with a brother that wasn't Donatello- 💀 Lmao
I'm very happy to announce that we'll have TMNTember this year! The entire event will be themed around the Space Arc, which marks 10 years since the premiere of the first episode!
To kick off this year's TMNTember, we'll be starting with the classic Art challenge calendar!
Rules:
Icest/Leorai/Nsfw are NOT allowed!
Fanarts or offensive posts will not be allowed.
You don't need to do art every day, feel free to take a break
If you are not an artist but want to participate, you can participate by posting about the chosen topic of the day
The focus is on the space arc, but you can make fanarts of any season
TMNTember is a Tmnt 2012 event, so please try to focus on that specific incarnation
That's all the news for now! See you soon, space ninjas!
Jonatello but they're on a stakeout in the middle of December — Only one blanket
I haven't been able to draw digitally for a bit cause it kept making me go dizzy :(( but in that time I traditionally learnt how to draw turtles and now nobody can stop me >:D
