Do you have turtle designs for your parent swap fic? Do they wear generally the same gear as the show or is it different cause ✨shredder✨? I really really wanna draw Fanart the concept is so neat
Thanks for asking! Here's my drawing of them, though I haven't practiced enough to have a consistent style with them, so ignore if the proportions are wonky or something looks weird.

Generally, they have the same designs (Mikey and Raph are almost exactly the same), but there are some differences from Canon.
For instance, instead of the bulky padding, their knees and elbows are covered with dark fabric, similar to a compression sleeve. I really like how @probably-not-a-rutabaga draws them, like in this drawing.
The wraps are black (including the ones on their hands, but I struggled to draw the hands as is, so just imagine they're there). The one on Leo's right knee is slightly bigger to hide the scar from his knee injury.
In addition to the knee wraps, Leo wears a large scarf, which hides his throat and lower face to hide the scars on his throat and chest. His scars have long been healed over, so on his skin, they're a lighter shade, while on his shell, they're darker, spreading out in smaller cracks.
Donnie's design is different due to his shell. Slight spoilers (I think) but his shell was badly cracked. While I tried to stick to canon injuries by Shredder for Leo, there wasn't as much for the other three, so I decided to take influence from the 2018 series and gave him a prosthetic shell. The cracks, while healed over (white bone instead of textured shell), damaged the integrity of his shell, so he made a fake shell to go over top of it. It looks just like his real shell, except the slightly larger size, so that it won't tip off enemies of his weakness. To support it, he has two cross straps and a thicker belt.
Because I changed their names, I kept their colors the same for the story, just so it wouldn't be too confusing who was who. If I was drawing it, I would have probably gave them all purple masks because that's the color of the Foot clan.
Their weapons also stayed the same, just because I don't know enough about weapons to change it up. I did, however, make Raph's weapon daggers instead of sai because from what I understand, sais are supposed to be a defensive weapon, and the Shredder believes the only defense is a very aggressive offense.
