#COME ONNNNN SEASON THREEEEEE

[truths33k3r4]

Happy Anniversary to the Rise of the TMNT MOVIE!!!! :)

Like @howtotrainyourdragonprince, I wanted to just commemorate the things that this amazing movie has done in the lives of so many people. Myself included. :)

Rise of the TMNT has sparked MORE FANFICS THAN I CAN COUNT. The show had many holes, (especially in the drama/angst variety), BUT, it was almost as if the creators of the show KNEW the fans of the franchise would step up to the plate and create THOUSANDS of au's, fanfics, comics, and more. :) Rise might not have been what we expected from the TMNT franchise, but it was something we needed. :) A BIG opportunity for so many like-minded people to pour their hearts and creative juices into something we all love.

And that's just the series.

I haven't even TOUCHED how much the Rise MOVIE has influenced and inspired SO MANY artists and authors. Many of the comics and stories I follow, (and make comic dubs for), are au's taken from the Rise Movie and series!

This is my fanart of many of these super talented creators! (PLEASE GO CHECK THEM ALL OUT THEY ARE ALL AMAZING.) :)

(Except for the wide panel of adult Leo and the sunset, and the first CASS panel, that were somewhat traced or was a Color This In Your Style, these are all my own original art!)

All these people, (AND MORE!), have taken all the heart, talent, and genius of the Rise series and movie and honored it by creating more from it. :) My story, (the Strength in Weakness), was also partially inspired by Rise!

It just goes to show how something as seemingly small as a tv series or movie can bring so many people together. <3
