Soooo . . . Leo is HamHam I assume?

Rottmnt/Hamilton combination

My hyperfixations unite!

Soon, further about your au. Splinter backstory?🥺👉👈 What is his relation with Shredder?

held off answering this so i could figure out the answer, forgot about it, and came back to answer it now only to realize it actually had TWO QUESTIONS and i only got the answer for one

subject to change, but what i got so far is that The Shredder taking control of the Foot Clan was the subject of prophecy, but Splinter had never met him personally, nor known someone claiming the name had come to power until the Foot Clan begins to take an interest in his sons

as for his backstory, I'm not entirely sure! i do know that he came to America with the goal to just. live a normal life. get away from the responsibility of sacrificing his life for something he didn't believe

as for his mutation,,,,, not entirely sure yet. but somebody wanted to make weapons, and he was unfortunate enough to get involved

thank you for the ask!!

I’ll say right away that I’m not an animator, so I don’t really know how to make storyboards yet

BUT I REALLY WANTED TO DO THIS.

School doodles, ignore the epic the musical brainrot in the background lol

tortle

my animation final !!

i have mixed feelings about it, but i'm choosing to be happy with it bc i might explode if i work on it any longer

operation S.H.E.L.L.D.O.N.

[other part to this]

@uglylittlebug ask to be tagged and you shall receive 🫡

somehow did not realize that if i made my iteration regularly wear clothes, i'd have to. actually design outfits for them. so uh. have some i made up on the fly

i didn't know what to use for the background so i used a screenshot of the original post

technically donnie's the only one of the four who usually has his third eyelids closed but shhhh

i rasterized the caption before realizing raph technically isn't green

i keep on switching between liking how my persona is drawn here and hating it yay

this is my first post on tumblur, i dont have new art so im posting old art from my tt and instagram let me know if you’re interested in oc sketches perhaps :3

idw shredder and splinter bc i fw their designs heavily!!!

bonus f!mikey ‼️THE DESIGN IS NOT MINE‼️

This is your sign to yap about your tmnt au

oh wait i wasn't actually expecting this now i don't know what to say- i'm just gonna. snatch the random stuff i rambled about on discord

full disclaimer that it is. not very developed yet! i haven't really figured out the plot, or the turtles entirely, so i'm mostly gonna yap about random details i hope that's okay (usually i avoid posting au's unless i deem them "finished enough" but uh that's never happened. so.)

so. in this au two of the turtles were made purposefully, and the other two accidentally (all four with the same ooze, but two were like,,, prepped for it beforehand, so the mutation sorta "assimilated" better with predetermined traits, while with the other two it ended up being more random)

read more because im yapping

donnie's a northern long/snake-necked turtle, mikey is an eastern box turtle, leo's a flordia softshell, and raph is a common snapper <- (this is also their height order)

they're used to wearing clothes in this au!! idk it just makes sense to me, that since splinter used to be human in this au and still wears clothes, he'd teach that to his sons, to an extent???

they don't mind being clothe-less (they do not bother with swimsuits), at least around family, because they are Turtles with nothing to see, but clothing allows them to express themselves!! and warmth, seeing as donnie's the only warm-blooded one and runs cold anyway

splinter has taken them to the surface since they were young, only after thoroughly scouting for a mostly secluded place, because the books splinter snatched said that children need things like sunshine and fresh air (or as fresh as new york can get, i guess? i don't know what the air is like there sorry guys. my only guess is that it's better than the sewers)

so they are used to being topside, watching the city from afar, but going to the surface alone for the first time ends up being a big deal for them as teens. that's when they end up meeting april!

they've known casey ever since they were all small, and casey definitely sees the turtles and splinter as his second family. he also calls leo a frog, as an inside joke to what tiny casey originally thought leo was

splinter wasn't a great dad when they were young. (he was sort of struggling with suddenly becoming a rat with four children, understandably) he didn't pay attention to them as long as he could find them when he looked. an incident ended up making him come to the reality that he's they're sole caretaker and he needs to step up, so he stole snatched a bunch of books on parenting and turtles and got way more invested in his sons' lives. current day turtles love their dad

age wise, technically nothing is set in stone for them except mikey being the youngest, since besides him the turtles developed too close together for splinter to figure out an age order. (like,, raph was the first to walk, but donnie was the first to talk, and none of them were really ahead of the others)

so oldest is based on the mood. raph was the oldest when they were tots, but that title slid on over to donnie over the years, and while leo can have older sibling energy, he rarely actually gets to Be the Oldest Sibling.

everybody knows raph has a sweet spot for mikey. he Will still carry him around even though mikey is taller.

if you have any specific questions, PLEASE ASK THEM! i probably won't have the answer, but it'll force me to figure the answer out, yknow? think about things i wouldn't have otherwise

have my first attempt at a mikey design as a thank you for sending an ask!!

So this is what happens when my fav villain from the franchise also becomes the main villain of the fanfic I'm obsessed with. I was gonna share this before chapter 15 came out but apparently @qoldenskies works at lightspeed

Umm I also got shitty close-ups

SOMEONE ELSE SEES MY VISION OML

This is probably my favorite concept in the idw comics

“Mama I’m chasing a ghost.”

Actually those evocative lines are the reason I wrote the ask. Like, you describe emotions and situations so so SO well omg. I love.

WHO GAVE YOU THE RIGHT TO HURT ME LIKE THIS. DID THE MUSES GUIDE YOUR HAND OR SOMETHING

I managed to speedrun the first two fics of Canary Continuity within a day. And. How could you do this to me.

The greatest, most beautiful, painful, gut-wrenching, heart-shattering paragraphs ever written seem to be found in tmnt angst fics istg.

waow... im glad people have high opinion of my prose (because i do not have high opinion of my prose)

oh wait im supposed to be coy that's like my bit. TEEHEE THANK U FOR ENJOYING

Sooo I headcannon that Miyamoto is at least 1 or 2 years older than the turtles (I’m not about to make bro an old man 😭) they aged down every character BUT him bro

Leo just being silly (ima color this later)

Reference

Okay be honest who would be the bride??😭 just random sketches of them I hate them (I love them with all my heart 😭❤️)

Should I finish them??

April redesignish

I got the hair design from @vylantrophi thank you 😭🙏

I shipped these 2 sooo hard when I was younger 😭 practices!!

*slams hand on the table* WE WERE ROBBED!

Mikey and that mouser pet episode, right?

Since my cat and other cats headbutt people when they want attention/show that they love someone, I am head cannoning that Donnie has that trait.

So I am imagining a scenario where Donnie is going “I am going to headbutt you” to Leo.

Donnie ends up headbutting Leo’s shoulder. And Leo is like “That was less violent than expected.”

Donnie is like, “I’m sorry, do you want it to be violent?”

This ends up with Donnie ramming into Leo and they both end up passed out on the floor.

Raph and Mikey come in a few minutes later, and don’t question anything.

Them™ indeed

*taps mic*

Do you guys think Mona and Raph get married Pirates of the Caribbean style??

Like in the middle of a life threatening fight???

Like—

Mona: I’ve made my choice. What’s yours?

Raph: DONNIE!!!

Donnie: ?!

Raph: MARRY US!!

It feels very in tune for how I see it happening. Don’t get me wrong I want them to have a chill and happy wedding, but getting married in the heat of the moment is also very Them ™

All I can think is that line from httyd 2.

Thinking about how MA Raph would look at Mona, hunched in and turning her head so Raph doesn't look at her scars. He gets closer and she backs away. "I'm not the same as you remember Raphael. I'm-...not as beautiful as you remember ."

Raph would gently touch her jaw to turn her head and look at him, to see the same love and devotion in his eyes all these years later.

"You're as beautiful as the day I lost you."

LOOK MAN YALL ARE TAKING THIS MA MONA LISA PLOTLINE AMD RUNNING WITH IT I LOVE YALL!!

BUT HE WOULD!! Raph slowly regaining flashes of he and Mona’s shared time together and it’s a morbid but warranted curiosity to see just how much she’s changed. How much they’ve both changed. After they get re-established with one another I’d like to think he always rests a gentle hand on Mona’s scarred side. 1, for warmth cause sometimes it twinges when she eats and 2, just because she always ends up leaning against it. Which he cherishes always.

Also the idea that he holds her face often just so he won’t forget her— he does this with his brothers too and Mira 😭

What do you think of Frida aka big mama assistant? I know we only saw in a few episodes or so and saw reveal her face but still thoughts?

Honestly, there’s really not much to think about regarding her as a character cause we know NOTHING about her as a character. She appears a total of 2(?) times in the show with no speaking lines. All we get from her character is that she is mysterious, is loyal to Big Mama, and is a skilled fighter (I can’t remember if we’ve ever seen her fight, but she probably is).

We don’t know her personality, her fears/weaknesses, her likes/dislikes, her hobbies, her history/relationship with Big Mama (whether it’s a loyal servant and her boss type relationship or if BM is a parental figure towards her), how she feels about Splinter and the Turtles (does she know they are her family or is unaware? If she does know, how does she feel about that? Does she feel resentment towards them, indifference, or something else?), etc.

The sad thing is, most fans will only ever know her as Big Mama’s Assistant, being completely unaware of the rottmnt comic issue or checked out the producers old Twitter posts that reveals her true identity.

As cool as a design and concept Frida aka Big Mama’s Assistant is, and ignoring all headcanons fans have of her, she’s sadly a nothing character. And I hate that she is a nothing character. I don’t want people to think I hate her, I love her in concept, but as a character she sadly has little to no character at all for me to love.

I just wish Nickelodeon didn’t abruptly cancel rottmnt so we were given time to get properly introduced to the character of Frida, and not “Big Mama’s Assistant”.

Okay regarding mystery sister's turtle species!

I got a ton of comments regarding what type of turtle she could be on that last post I made, and I wanted to bring up some of the more likely options! (Also, I'm gonna call the sister Frida cuz that's probably her name)

One of the most popular guesses is that Frida is a yellow bellied slider, cuz, y'know, yellow. Also it'd be fun to have two sliders in the family maybe lmao

Another popular theory is that she's a box turtle like Mikey (they do look a pretty similar honestly) in which case specifically the eastern box turtle or the florida box turtle could be the more likely options

Bog turtle! The markings on the face remind me a lot of Frida's markings so I think this one makes a lot of sense, personally

And lastly we have the spotted turtle, more yellow markings which would fit Frida's deisgn.

Honestly I'm having a hard time deciding on which species I wanna headcanon her as until when (or if) we get a confirmation, I'm kinda vibing with all of these lol.

Actually, I MIGHT be a bit more partial towards bog turtle or some type of box turtle, but I'm flexible

Frida but she’s Leo’s actual bio twin sister (hatched from the same clutch)

Donnie is NOT pleased abt it 😭😭😭🙏🏻
