I may be a Raph fan, but I adore Leatherhead, and he and Mikey have my whole heart.

~ TMayNT Day 6: Favorite mutant ally ~

I was terrified of drawing Leatherhead but he came out good! I had fun with the textures.

@tmaynt I came to know I actually gotta tag ya. I think-

TMAYNT Day 8: Favorite Turtle Ally + Dynamic

Mikey and Leatherhead!

I know I already drew Leatherhead for a prompt, but I couldn't help myself! Mikey and Leatherhead are best buds! I was either going to draw these two, or it was going to either be Raph and Mona or 2003 Raph and Casey.

Did a bit of experimentation on colored lines this time around!

Only a headshot this time around as I'm focusing on sketching up more complex images for later!

I've been practicing drawing different characters and poses and OBVIOUSLY I HAD TO DRAW MY FAVORITE CHARACTER. Meeting 2012 Leatherhead's VA inspired me to learn how to draw the gator.

Leatherhead and his son <33

In season 2 episode 24 of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012 series) titled "Into Dimension X", Mikey states that he was in Dimension X for either "months" or "hours" before his brothers also arrive in Dimension X. There are many people who have a lot of different ideas about how long Mikey actually spent alone in the Kraang's home dimension. I believe, however, that an estimate can be narrowed down by using inferred timeline information and Leatherhead's own time in Dimension X. In this essay I will

No one asked, but my favorite part of the scene where Mikey comforts Leatherhead in front of his brothers isn't just that they're witnessing it.

It's the varying reactions we get.

It's a literal "blink and you'll miss it" moment, but Raph hardly reacts to Mikey's display; he's the first to turn to Donnie and signal him to inquire about the power cell.

We've seen how he looks when Mikey genuinely catches him off guard, and this isn't one of those moments.

It's fitting that Raph would be the least surprised by the spectacle because he's often portrayed to be the one who best understands Mikey, even in the 2012 comics when Leo and Donnie scold Mikey for his lack of focus in one issue (there are other examples). While they argue with Mikey, Raph is seen chilling in the background because he doesn't have that big of an issue with Mikey's attention span, and he even calls Mikey out when he claims he's not bothered by their comments as he walks out in irritation. He then goes on to scold Leo and Donnie later for running Mikey off as they look for him. He may be the biggest culprit when it comes to calling Mikey out once his attention starts to stray, but contrary to what he said in New Friend, Old Enemy, he understands Mikey quite well, sometimes better than anyone else.

So seeing Mikey pull the therapist card on someone isn't out of the ordinary for him. He knows Mikey well enough to anticipate something like this.

Leo's next in line for actually reacting very subtly to Mikey pulling Leatherhead out of his headspace.

His eyes are already widened by the time the camera pans back to him, but they widen an extra notch before he too turns back to Donnie.

Leo has borne witness to Mikey's skills plenty of times prior to this episode, and we can take their decade-and-a-half spent underground into consideration, so seeing Mikey behave so compassionately doesn't strike him as anything supremely noteworthy. But he's clearly impressed that Mikey managed to befriend the hostile mutant in such a short amount of time; he recognizes that his youngest brother is mentally intelligent and strong enough to calm down the easily angered Leatherhead while no one else thought it to be feasible.

It surprises him, but Leo understands that Mikey is the most sympathetic out of all of them, and he doesn't take long to get over his surprise.

Donnie, on the other hand, takes the longest amount of time to move on from what transpired.

Unlike Raph's lack of feedback and Leo's mental approbation, Donnie is awestruck.

As I said before, I highly doubt this is anyone's first time seeing the level of maturity Mikey has, but (and it's a very close race) Donnie's the main one out of the brothers who both accidentally and purposefully sees Mikey as the tactless, accident prone little brother everyone makes him out to be most of the time. Though he knows Mikey is proficient at critical thinking when he's needed to be, bringing in a mutant with violent tendencies and perceptible trauma that gets triggered by the mention of a name isn't a territory they've frequented.

And yet, much like Leo, he sees for himself that Mikey was clearly capable of mellowing Leatherhead out and knew how to steer him away from his horrendous memories with the Kraang.

You got good art dude

Who's your favorite tmnt side/background/supporting character?

Ooooh thanks!!!! 😍😍😍

I'm not sure about my favourite side character, there's a few that I like. I think Metalhead, Leatherhead, Mondo Gecko and Timothy are the ones I like most but I can't really choose amongst them 😊
