So! The evil art challenge! Thank you everyone who gave their input, you wrote really nice things💙💙 and you've definitely picked out my habits pretty well, lmao. Below I'll write a breakdown of my style and thoughts behind the "evil" version.

Aesthetically I love pastel and saturated colors and I'm 100% biased toward cooler tones. Regardless of color, whether it's red or blue adjacent, I'll always pick the cooler variable of it. I tend to avoid using black and I particularly have an aversion toward basic red. I have a short attention span and limited reserves of energy, so I try to work fast and stick to simple techniques; hence the sketchy linearts and mostly flat colors. I also just visually like smooth surfaces and gradients.

I want to convey the shapes and weight of the things I draw but with a minimalistic amount of lines and shading. This ties into putting emphasis on anatomy and muscles. I do tend to spend a lot of time sketching, because I usually have a very specific pose or vibe in my mind, and I want to be able to capture it.

For the "evil" version: - I sketched Raph and Leo a lot faster and attempted stiffer poses than in the normal one. - Thick and non-sketchy lineart - Dark and reddish color scheme - More rendered, airbrushy and kinda messy shading (I suffered) - Slightly less defined muscles...?

At some point I thought I should make them sharper, but then I just forgot lol.

Also, here's a flat colored version of the evil art because I like it 100% better. (Works better with the lineart style)

I picked Leo and Raph for this challenge for the opposing red and blue color schemes. As an extra, I put them in Fast Forward gear, as its blueness and the season's more saturated look are very fitting for my style. And then I'd get to make it work in a warmer tone.

Anyway, hope you enjoyed my ramblings and art~

Eclipsed Affection

Dark Donatello x reader

A/N: There’s not enough Fast Forward or dark turtles stuff out there, so I’ve decided to take matters into my own hands and make some.

--------------------------

You have gone to the future with the turtles, and are there when they meet their evil clones. But you did not expect to be the newest focus point of the purple part kanabo turtle.

Warnings: Spelling, angst-ish, dark turtles being dicks to each other.

----------------------------

It was in moments like these that you agreed more and more with Raphael. You hated the future. Or at least parts of the future. Like this part that took place in a random storage building, where boxes and turtles were being thrown over your head, right after having been shot down in the Hover Shell. And let’s not forget the four clones of your best friends, how were in that moment, really kicking ninja butts.

Michelangelo was thrown over your head and into a pile of boxes right behind you, with the manic dark Mikey running straight after him. Your heart raced as you dodged the swift strikes of the dark Mikey’s metal club, each move calculated and aggressive as you jumped back and furth.

“There may not be a clone of you”, dark Mikey said, his long tongue hanging out of his mouth with every word. “But it’s easy to see who taught you how to fight!” It took one swing of his club to take your legs out under you. You fell to the ground with a groan, before dark Mikey grabbed onto your ankle, swinging you around over his head, before letting fly across the room.

You landed on your back somewhere in the middle of the room, surrounded by boxes. You brought a hand up to your face, rubbing your aching head, when suddenly the boxes around you tumbled, as dark Donatello fell through them. Dark Donnie, caught off guard about whatever attack the real Donatello had used on him, tumbled and landed right on top of you, bracing himself with his forearms during the last second. For a moment, the world stilled as his cold, yellow eyes locked onto yours, widening slightly. Time seemed to freeze as you gazed into the abyss of his conflicted soul, not sure what to say or do. As far as you could tell he was just frozen above you.

The battle continued around you, but the air between you and Dark Donatello crackled with an unspoken tension. You were surprised to see his gaze softening, into something you couldn’t quite place. Sadness? Confusion? You did not know, yet you could tell that whatever the clone was feeling at that moment, it was not something he was used to.

The dark turtle forgot the chaos around him as he stared into your eyes. Your bright eyes. You looked at him with fear and that did something to him. Something that didn’t feel good. He had enjoyed the fear of the turtles just a moment ago, but the fear you showed him just didn’t feel right. It felt… wrong? Yet he did not move from you. He continuously stared into your bright eyes. He hated brightness, that was part of his nature, but for some reason he found the one in your eyes pleasant. Pleasant… a pleasant feeling… that was new.

Before the moment could linger, a swift motion disrupted the quiet tension. Leonardo, sensing the danger, lunged forward through the rest of the boxes, expertly kicking the dark Donatello off of you. The dark turtle grunted as he fell into the last few boxes, disoriented for a moment as the leader in blue positioned himself protectively between you and the fallen adversary.

"Stay back!" Leonardo warned, his eyes narrowing at the dark Donatello who slowly rose to his feet. The turtles closed in, their weapons ready as they circled their dark counterparts. The balance of the battle had shifted. Dark Donnie’s absence had been what the four original turtles needed to turn the tide in their favor.

The moment shattered as the real turtles rallied and overcame their dark counterparts. The dark turtles retreated, defeated, leaving you and your friends victorious but breathless.

“Are you okay, (Y/N)?”, Leo asked as he helped you up on your feet.

“I think so”, you said, rubbing your head once more, confused and aching after what just had happened.

—

Darius Dun's voice echoed with frustration. "You fools! How could you let them beat you?" He berated the clones for their failure, marching back and forth in front of them. Leo did nothing but stare out into the air, a stoic yet angry look upon his face. Mikey’s manic laughter had died out long ago, his long tongue just hanging down the side of his mouth. Raph recoiled slightly as Darius yelled in his direction. But Donnie remained unfaced. His eyes focused on the floor and his mind somewhere else, far away from the yelling of Darius Don.

His thoughts were consumed by the strange feeling he had felt when he accidentally fell on you. It was… warm? A slight tickling? It was a strange feeling, and it kept creeping back whenever he thought about your eyes. Despite the chaos, your eyes lingered in his mind, the strange feeling he felt haunting his every thought.

Darius Dun's continued scolding fell on deaf ears as Donatello replayed the encounter in his mind. The moment he caught himself and the shocked look in your eyes. The tingling in his fingers and claws as he thought about reaching out for you. Not to harm you, but simply to touch you.

After what felt like hours of yelling, Darius finally left the dark turtles be, throwing them a simple piece or raw meat for food. As the turtles started fighting among themselves for the food, they noticed their purple brother’s absence. He sat on his own, far away from them, staring into the empty space in front of him.

They exchanged confused glances, chewing down whatever food they managed to get their hands on.

"Hey brainboy, you with us or lost in you mind?", Raph asked, almost taunting as he gulped down the meat. Donnie snapped back to attention, his eyes narrowing in annoyance.

"Cut it out, Don", Leo added, his growling expression prominent. "We've got enough problems without you daydreaming about the enemy". All his brothers looked at him in confusion and shock.

“I am not daydreaming about anyone”, Donnie growled, crossing his arms, refusing to look at his blue brother. Truth be told, he was shocked that Leo knew. He shouldn’t be surprised. It was the clone of Leonardo after all, the leader known for his focus and attention to detail.

“You’re not fooling anyone”, Mikey grumbled, pointing a finger in his direction. “You and your little crush on that human is the reason we lost today!”

“It’s not my fault you guys couldn’t handle yourselves without me!”, Donnie snarled back. “I didn’t ask to be the one with the brain, numb nuts!”

Leo growled once more, before standing to walk towards his younger brother. In a swift move he had Donnie’s throat in his hand, squishing slightly, making him stare into his eyes.

“I am not taking another round of yelling from Darius because you got the hots for one of their friends! Get that brain you like to brag about into the game, before I convince Darius he only needs three of us!”, the blue clone yelled, before throwing Donnie to the ground.

The purple clone coughed on the floor, rubbing this neck, watching Leo’s feet as he walked away. For that short time he had known his clone brother, he had learned one thing; he meant every threat. And as much as Donnie hated to admit it, he agreed with his brothers. Whatever it was about you that had taken a hold on him, it was not good. It was a distraction, and not something a part kanabo creature was supposed to feel. But Dark Donatello couldn't shake the lingering warmth he felt when his eyes met yours, nor the heightened beating of his heart. The connection was inexplicable, and it gnawed at the edges of his consciousness. And as much as Donnie hated the feeling he also liked it. And even though he agreed with his brothers, he also wanted to spite them. But every thought led back to the same thing; Donnie wanted to see you again, even if it meant fighting you and your best friends. It was the only hope he had as a half mutant turtle, half kanabo. Fight the turtles and enjoy the few glances he could get of you. It was probably best like that anyway.

Day 31: the turtles in your favourite style

Tbh.. all styles are what I like there isn't one which I don't like. So I decided to go with one style that really pushed my practise for these turtles in the first place as I slowly started to get comfortable to draw them more often. That is the Fast forward style that was on the season 6 if I remember correctly. I had so much fun to try and draw these sillies and conclude my journey with this challenge.

In these words I hope you had fun in this ride with me at Tmaynt, I loved this challenge so much as it pushed me to draw daily and get more comfortable to draw and try new things.

I might do one big post and collect every single art piece I made on this challenge in one or two collages to see them all together side by side

And huge thank you for @mikasleaf to host this challenge in the first place

@tmaynt

[thankchaosforspellcheck]

Me every SINGLE time I see a tmnt fic titles "the more things change": -the more they all stay the same! Still kicking but and playing video games, driving everyone nuts, the future's really inSANE‐

[atalante241]

Gotta give it to 2k3, the art style change gave them the possibility of changing the turtles designs up a bit and they took that and made them different heights, and then in BTTS they made them have different builds.

This also means that the turtles just didn’t grow that much during their grazy years before FF and BTTS, which when you think about it is kinda sad.

This also makes me think of SAINW (when don’t I), the older turtles were still the same height as Donny. It’s been 30 years and they hadn’t grown. And FF & BTTS show that the turtles still have growing left. This means that they probably weren’t getting enough nutrients or whatever, and also the huge amount of stress.

So in conclusion, I’m now sad about the 03 turtles. Again.

I'm excited to watch Fast Foward. I know didn't super appreciate it when it first came out. I was so frustrated about lack of info on the tribunal. I think it's going to be a fun romp after season 5.

Also Serling being over protective and the boys picking on Splinter makes me so happy.

Though the style change is something.

Summary:

Behind the podium, Don smiles timidly at the crowd. His composure is carefully crafted—but when he makes eye contact with them, his family can tell how nervous he is under the guise.

“You’ve got this,” Leo mouths, sending Don a wink.

Don’s smile relaxes, and he gives the slightest of nods before he begins.

—

When it becomes clear that the Hamato family will be stuck in the 22nd century for the foreseeable future, Donatello decides to pursue higher education and accomplish one of his dreams: earning a degree. However, before his graduation, a foe unlike any other he has faced rears its ugly head—and he ends up looking to an unlikely ally for assistance.

LMAOOO

Mini compilation of TMNT 2003 casually sneaking things past the censors.

(I've already posted the clips from City at War - Part 1 and Adventures in Turtlesitting before, but everything else is brand new.)

[ilovebeinaturtle]

Heya peeps! Here's some cute art of Mikey and my OC 2003 Kammie based in the episode "Invasion of the Body Snatcher!" but I think Kammie's dress would look "futuristic" like Mikey's and his bros suits tho! Art by @violet-hamato-utrom! Thank you so much! 🐢🧡💖

[xxbritishrosexx]

Since it's already June I and last month I finished the first art challenge (Tmaynt) ever to the end. I decided to put all the artworks in one big collage to see them all together in one big pile.

And I'll see I had a theme which was 2003 series, tho some of these I'm not 100 % happy with but nonetheless I'm happy to see how the art had some improvement and I'm glad I get in the end without losing motivation which was my fear from the start (and not getting burnout/art block which was relief)

I'm not tagging this for that, just wanted to have them all in one post to see them all.
