Here's some doodles that no one asked for

[uglylittlebug]

Contemplating if I should rewatch tmnt 2012 again and find all the times the turtles got hurt bad enough that it would probably leave permanent damage

[uglylittlebug]

Working on April and Casey's design for my tmnt au. In the meantime have these "how are you feeling on a scale of *insert character*" that I made

2012 under the cut

[uglylittlebug]

Uuhhh tmnt au lolz

Sillay

[uglylittlebug]

Drawing my turtles isnt fun anymore. Kinda bummed about that. I'm probably not gonna post much about my tmnt iteration rn. I'm gonna work on coming up with a style for my dudes that I enjoy drawing👍

Physically a teenage boy, mentally deadpool.

Sooo.. I rewatched tmnt 2012 and put together pretty much all of the jonatello scenes I could find

Anyways, my thought process on some of the scenes or whatever under the cut

In this scene Raph, Leo, and Casey get back from scavenging in the lair. Casey says that he got Donnie some chemicals from his lab. Obviously Donnie is happy about this. What I immediately thought about was that Casey either was looking through Dee's stuff, saw the lab stuff and knew Don would like it, OR, Leo or Raph found them but Casey wanted to give them to Donnie. Idk dude their gay af

This one was pretty subtle but I noticed that after taking out bebop they cross their weapons and tap them together. I thought it was cute and maybe just a little something they do

Tbh I just thought it was funny how Casey grabbed onto don lmao

This one. This one hits me in the feels every time. If you have seen "the power inside her" you know what happens. But what I find interesting is that right after it happens the scene focuses on Casey's reaction, and let me say it's a sad one.

Anyways if u watched/read all of this, wow. Did not expect that

[uglylittlebug]

Prob not gonna be posting for a little while, not doing too good

[uglylittlebug]

I cant believe I drew this with one brush and on 1 layer😭

[uglylittlebug]

Messing around with that brush again man

And no, there is no context for the 3rd image. I just felt like messing with colors

[uglylittlebug]

Was messing around with a cool brush and I'm now obsessed with it

[uglylittlebug]

New tmnl April design

[uglylittlebug]

Wanted to post this separate from the ask that inspired me to make it

[uglylittlebug]

IM INTERESTED ABOUT UR AU !!!MEE MEEEEE!!

Tell me everything! Or wait no, let's start slow.

1) how'd u come up with ur au and 2) how is everyones dynamic with each other and splinter!!

U said splints was an asshole so tell me about :))-🫘

RAAAGGHHH!! Alr, shit under the cut

1) I knew I wanted to make my own tmnt iteration, didn't rlly have any huge thots behind my ambition tho lol. I started designing the turtles and then I kept redesigning until I found something I liked (tbh I might change a few things as I go) then came other characters so that was fun. And then I just wrote a shit ton of notes in a shit ton of Google docs, note pads, and sketchbooks. I don't rlly know man, I'm just coming up with stuff as I go along

2) super excited u asked this bc I actually have stuff written down about it lmao

Bro dynamics:

Raph and leo

-they fight a lot, there is a certain misunderstanding between them. They don't seem to see how similar they really are

-eventually they will see it and their bond will grow

-leo doesn't understand why Raph is the leader yet he is the favorite

-raph gets frustrated with Leo but it's out of care for him and his loved ones

Raph and donnie

-they just get each other idk

-raph sometimes hangs out in dons lab and draws

-they both have issues with anger and lashing out but Raph is better at hiding it

-they constantly tell each other to fuck off, shut up, etc but it's always playful

Raph and mikey

-pretty much just rise raph and Mikey, just make Raph more like idk chill

-they like to cook/bake together

-mikey honestly helped Raph with a lot of things he was dealing with mentally

Leo and Donnie

-its a love hate relationship tbh

-obvi they care about each other but they just have a hard time expressing it

-leo doesn't rlly understand Donnie and why he is the way he is. He feels like he's just putting on a show and being way too sensitive about stuff

-eventually he will understand him more

-they dont always agree with each other

-donnie hates how devoted Leo is to splinter

-im not going to go into detail on this rn but there was a situation during training and it did not go well

Leo and mikey

-they fight the least but when they do its something, two dudes who dont have a hard time expressing their opinion but do have a hard time expressing themselves

-they always apologize after (usually) and will watch tv together or something

-will definitely get into some shit if left unattended

Donnie and mikey

-donnie likes his personal space and Mikey likes donnie's personal space

-donnie often lashes out on Mikey, similar to 2012 Donnie. But he apologizes and explains himself after

-mikey always seems fine but he is sort of scared of Donnie when he does lash out. He's seen what he does to himself (Donnie will bang on tables, stomp on his feet, hit himself, scratch or bite himself etc) and he feels dumb for fearing this but he is worried Donnie might hurt him

-donnie likes to ask Mikey a lot of questions for his inventions and stuff, Mikey likes to offer his input so it's like a fun little thing for them

Bros and splinter:

Raph

-2nd fav child

-splinter made him leader since he is the oldest

-splinter puts a lot of pressure on raph since she's the leader and the oldest

-when the turtles were younger Raph was the one taking care of the others. He hates splinter bc of that

-splinter always told Raph that he must protect the others (referring to Donnie and Mikey) because they are "weak" and "unfocused"

-raph knows that it's fucked up but is obviously still going to protect all of her siblings bc he cares about them

Leo

-fav child

-splinter sees the most potential in him bc he is the most focused, skilled, and obedient

-doesnt understand why splinter didn't make him the leader if it is clear that he is the favorite child

-even though he is the fav, he doesn't like splinter anymore than the others

-he knows splinter hurts them (emotionally and physically) but is too scared to lose his position as the favorite if he speaks up

-he feels that if it weren't for him being the favorite the others would be hurt more

Donnie

-is prob the least fav but it is unclear who is between him and mikey

-is ignored for the good things but if he screws up splinter makes sure he feels like a screw up

-things about Donnie that piss splinter off:

.focuses on tech rather than training

."talks back"

.stims, physically and sometimes verbally

.sensitive to sound, texture, etc

.is clumsy and "constantly" getting hurt or sick

Mikey

-usually goes under the radar with splinter

-mikey is easily distracted while training so that upsets splinter

-mikey tends to cry when he's angry so splinter never takes him seriously bc he is "showing weakness"

I think that's all I have for now, ty so much for the ask tho!! I had a lot of fun answering it
