MASTERPOST

HEHE THE HYPERFIXATION CONTINUES this took my several hours bc i draw so slowly and dont realize it so that was great but i really like them ^^

Raph is a great white just bc I thought it fit, Mike is a leopard shark bc of spots and bc little, Leo is a pelagic thresher bc he’s a speedy boy, and Donnie is a shortfin mako bc they’re very smart!

I was trying to find an equivalent to sharks for Donnie and his soft shell but i couldn’t think of a species specific thing so I’ve decided that when they were rescued my Lou, he got burn damage to his snout where his sensing organs are and since sharks rely on that organ a lot due to they’re poor eyesight, he can struggle in seeing things. Technically they all have awful eyesight but the others can sense the electro magnetic fields and whatever so they’re good. Hence Don needs glasses and just still struggles beyond that.

Ummmmm yeah so they all have tails and dorsal fins and little fins on their tails. They each have sets of gills on their necks and rib area while also having lungs. They can breathe underwater then, they just have to keep their mouths closed. I also think their lair situation would be the same with more pools for them since they do like water but their human characteristics don’t make them dependent. Maybe just water lovers and avid moisturizers.

OKAY IF ANYONE WANTS TO SEND ME AN ASK ABOUT THIS ID BE HAPPY TO TALK BUT YOU KNOW UP TO YOU TEEHEEHEEHEE I NEED TO EAT NOW BYEEEEEEE

It was Leo's turn to choose the family outing Something about this place... he always looks forward to this spot

If Donnie chooses the botanical gardens, I hc that Mikey chooses museums, Raph the Central Park Zoo, and Leo the aquarium

I'm not sure how I feel with this piece. I like the idea and composition, but I know my coloring skills still need a lot of work and I wish I was confidant enough to have painted everything instead of relying on so many shortcuts ;v;

I listened to "August 30, 2023: Super Blue Moon" by Sleeping At Last while working on this and I think you should too

#FishFriday:

Figure of Sea God Ngorieru (or Ngoreru)

Solomon Islands

late 19th - early 20th c.

turtle shell

on display at Museum of Fine Arts, Boston

“A close look at this human-like figure reveals a shark head and fish for feet, attributes of the sea spirit Ngorieru. Honored by Sa'a and Ulawa communities and today familiar across the Solomon Islands as the image on the nation's 10-cent coin, Ngorieru caused danger for people at sea, but could also be asked to protect houses, canoes, and gardens. Ngorieru's protection was often invoked with a small wooden carving, but when foreign traders on the islands revealed a preference for turtle-shell pieces, local artists made a few Ngorieru figures in this translucent but brittle material.”
