TMNT: Roots

Introducing my version of Miyamoto Usagi! He’s an ally of the tmnt and is able to make a portal to their dimension (the Battle Nexus had a lot to do with it, I’ll explain that in a later post). He’s the same age as them and gets along with Leo the best (he’s very 03Usagi-coded).

His design is a nod to 2012 and 2003 Usagis, but I still tried to change it up slightly.

Day two!!! Protect the baby!!

Lone rat and Cubs my beloved

Встреча двух необычных существ

При первом появлении Разгрома, я подумал

«А они похожи...»

Так я думал о Разгрома и своём не-коте портальщике

И очень долго думал эту идею, пока не выпала возможность нарисовать это

Осознание угрозы

Нарисовал по мотивам фанфика на ficbook «Восхождение Черепашек-ниндзя: Эволюция»

Мне нравятся такие моменты

I like to imagine this is how they’d interact for the first time.

YES I am watching TMNT 2012 in the year of our lord 2021 what about it

Oh hey, look'it that! I have 400+ stalkers now! +_+ Thank you for all your interest! I'm glad you're here and that you enjoy my tortol arts. <3

I decided to slap together a DTIYS for the occasion. I am still however largely new to this so I'm not sure what all is expected of these. ;;;

Please take good care of them.

Sannan knows he's going to lose and is very much of the mindset of 'if I can't have that last dango then no one else can.'

Edit: OH RIGHT DEADLINE (thank you @controlled-spontaneity - I knew I'd forget something!!!) None, this is for fun! :]

Part 1!

..of the C.A.S. animated project:D

So...this is basically a little animation test we did to see if we can replicate the style of the original show. Turns out we can haha. And now that we know that, we want to do more~

Solid Helium Lizart Lotte

Aaand I put this thing on Tiktok and YouTube :D

[Greetings fellow cabin mate, Ooze leo has been receiving a lot of gifts and he wished to return the favor to possible friends. He does not quite grasp the concept so he has given you a ..rat?]

Other cabin members appreciate the gift more then others (°▽°)

”what eyes”

What happens if I kiss Leo on the cheek...?(つ･･)つ

(Sorry if I disturbed you too much...)

I couldn't not draw both versions. Recalling how young Leo was always so "EEW!" whenever he saw people expressing romantic love, But I imagine him being king of confidence as an adult.

Happy pride or whatever it’s gay people again

How to draw TMNT 2012 Part 2 - The Plastron and Bridge

Turtle shells are comprised of three main components:

The carapace - the part of the shell on a turtle's back

The plastron - the part of the shell that is on the turtle's front

The bridge - the part on the side that connects the carapace and plastron together

Today, we will be focusing on the plastron and bridge of the shell

Note: Many parts of this tutorial will be referencing the vertebral, costal, and marginal scutes of the carapace. To learn more about them see part 1 of the tutorial series

#1 The Plastron

IMPORTANT!!: The shape and details of the plastron vary between Leo, Raph, Donnie, and Mikey. If you are going for a show-accurate art style, then way you'd draw the plastron for one of the brothers won't be the same you would for another. However, due to Tumblr's image limit, today we will just be drawing a generic plastron for any turtle. I will be making a separate post dedicated to the shell differences between the four brothers in the future

Now, then, we'll discuss the plastron. Typically, the plastron on real-life turtles is comprised of many scutes and bones; however, the plastrons in tmnt 2012 are much more simplified. After some observation, it's been determined that it'll be easier to break down the tmnt 2012 plastron into three skeletal components + an outline. So, let's begin

The bones of the plastron we will be focusing on are the hyoplastron, hypoplastron, and xiphiplastron. We will be working top to bottom

[the hyoplastron is labeled as "Hyo", hypoplastron"Hypo", and xiphiplastron "xip"]

The Outline:

To begin, let's draw the outline of the plastron. First, draw two lines at a slight diagonal angle in the shape of a wide ∧. Next, draw a V where the two lines meet in the middle. Afterwards, erase the part of the lines that are above the V

When we take a look at the plastron, we can see that the top of it is skinner than the bottom. Therefore, when drawing the sides of the plastron we will be drawing at a slight diagonal angle outwards. Keep in mind, these lines are not completely straight. They are rounded and extend outwards before slightly coming back inwards at the bottom

To finish, draw two diagonal lines drawing near the center with a small horizonal line in the middle to connect them. The outline of your plastron is now completed

The Hyoplastron:

The hyoplastron are the bones closest to the top of the plastron, as well as the smallest

To draw this, draw a horizontal line near the upper-middle part of the plastron, leaving plenty of room for the hypoplastron and xiphiplastron. For guidance, remember that the line you're drawing should be aligned with the shell crack on the marginal scute shown below

The Hypoplastron and Xiphiplastron:

The hypoplastron are the bones in the middle of the plastron, the xiphiplastron are the bones at the bottom

When drawing these, remember that the hypoplastron are the 2nd largest bones out of the three while the xiphiplastron are the largest.

Draw a horizonal line a little below the mid-point of the plastron. For guidance, remember that the line you're drawing should be aligned with the shell crack on the marginal scute shown below

Finishing Touches:

To finish this off, draw a vertical line down the center of the plastron to separate it in half

Next, we're going to add some cracks in the plastron where the sections of it meet together. If you look closely, the sections are not actually touching each other at the very ends. Rather, they diverge and leave small > and < shapes, similar to the cracks on the marginal scutes of the carapace

Occasionally, we find scratches as well as small cracks in between the connecting lines of the sections and on the outskirts of the plastron. As there's not a specific turtle we're focusing on today, feel free to place these extra little details wherever you like

Finally, and this is optional, we're going to add some definition by thickening the lines separating the sections. This will add depth and emphasize how the plastron is made up of several parts put together. The lines don't need to be perfect as imperfections are normal

#2 The Bridge

The bridge is the bone that connects the plastron to the carapace. So, how do we draw it?

Outline:

To begin, let's draw the top and bottom of the bridge

The top of the bridge is the armhole for the turtles. To draw it, make a line in the shape of the U connecting the plastron and carapace together. The line should start from the bottom of the upper costal scute of the carapace and connect to the upper part of the hyoplastron of the plastron

The lowest dip in the U should be around level with the crack in the closest marginal scute and the crease separating the hyoplastron and hypoplastron

The bottom of the bridge is going to be where the turtles stick their legs out. To draw it, make a line in the shape of a ⌒ connecting the plastron and carapace together. The line should start from the first crack of the lower vertebral scute and connect to the lower part of the xiphiplastron where the plastron goes inwards towards the center

Cracks and Definition:

Now, we're going to add in the cracks and definition

First, we're going to add two new lines to our bridge. Near the top we're going to add a line in the shape of a V, and near the bottom a line in the shape of a ∧. These show how the bridge is being pushed outwards due to the arms and legs and adds a 3D effect

Now, let's add the cracks. If you look at the arm and leg holes, it splits off into three pieces. To draw the cracks, we're going to place two Vs close to the plastron on the top and bottom of the bridge

As a tip, the cracks in the center of the bridge should line up with the tip of the V and ∧ lines you made in the last step

After adding the cracks, erase the part of the outline inside of the cracks to create the gaps

Extra Details:

Ever notice those brown markings on the bridge? While it's not exactly clear what they're meant to be, my best guess would be that they're inframarginal scutes (scutes that are on the bridge)

Now, If we take a look at the model, it looks like there's only two of them

However, if we take a look under the belt there's three of these scutes. You just can't see the one at the bottom due to the belt being in the way

So, how do we draw these?

First, draw a straight, vertical line near the carapace of the shell. This line is going to ensure all the scutes are the same length. Keep in mind, the inframarginal scutes take up about 3/4 of the bridge in width

It's also important to note that the scutes should be placed very close to the bottom of the bridge, leaving some extra room at the top

Next, we're going to add the scutes following the pattern shown in the diagram left to the shell

To draw the top scute, draw with a diagonal line going downwards-right for the top. For the bottom, draw a straight, horizontal line

The middle scute should be a normal rectangle

And finally, to draw the bottom scute make a horizontal, straight line for the top and a diagonal line going upwards-right for the bottom

Erase the unneeded parts of the original vertical line you drew

And that's it. You now have a bridge to connect the plastron to the carapace. With everything put together you should get something that looks like this

I hope you guys enjoyed today's tutorial, they're fun to make

Leonardo calls his kid-brothers by many many nicknames. These are a few of my favorites <3

RE-UPLOAD OF THE PEEPAW!! i deleted the other post pls dont perceive it 😭🙏 also extra pieces bc it’s been rotting in my gallery for months

The bigger one gets to be the boss!

My OC couple Rimerock (the silver drake, he/him) and Larksharius (the black coatl, they/them)

Figured quick gem render recipe for myself, sharing bc why not

I needed a quick way to go from non-transparent grayscale, so here you basically start with bw non-opaque rock without details

"dramatizing" is just glare + gradient on some planes

I mean Raph did ask first so

When you meet your past lives but they're all ignoring you and freaking out over this one guy?

I've seen a few versions of this floating around with the different Leos and I wanted to have a go at doing one for Mikey. They're all collectively realising what a bus sized bullet they dodged by not ending up as messed up as Ronin

Anatomy of a Chimera

I love Dungeon Meshi, so I made an anatomy chart for Falin’s dragon form.

✨I’ll be selling this design as a print at Lightbox expo this October! It’ll be the only place you can get it, so consider grabbing tickets and visiting me!✨

Time is not your remedy

Prologue (?) for my Dragon!SY AU ❤️

+silly bonus doodle

Thank you so much for all the love and support for this AU 🥹❤️ It’s rotting my brain at all times and I have so many thoughts and ideas for and about it 🥰

Hi I'm very fascinated by your dragon svsss au and I got a question if you're still open for them! It's regard SY!SQQ, bc in the first pic that you uploaded of the au he's noticeably more clothed than LQG and in the last comic you made the joke that he's wondering where his clothes are. Now to my question: is this different to how Shen Jiu used to dress because Shen Yuan had some modesty concerns from his former life or did he always cover up more? Or is Liu Qingge just unusually exposed in comparison to the other dragon Peak Lords? Anyway I hope you have a good day!

First of all sorry it took so long to answer your ask oTL (Got busy and distracted)

To answer your first question, SY!Sqq wears the same kind of clothing that SJ!Sqq did, he does feel kinda weird about being so exposed for a while but gets to learn Very Quickly that most everyone dresses like this. So yeah he has modesty concerns but learns to hide his embarrassment very quick because if everyone else is doing it, it isn’t as weird!

Lqg is more exposed than the other peak lords 😂 I’ll get back to that in a second.

SO. Some worldbuilding lore~

“Dragon fashion is designed to transition easily between forms and allow a tail to move freely, and dragons don’t care much about nudity or exposure-

Clothes expand at the waist and are slit at the sides to accommodate a larger, more serpentine form, and come off quickly and easily if you want to get really big.”

-excerpt taken from a dragon au fic my friend Corrin (/ partner in crime for making this au) wrote (it’s not posted yet, it’s Moshang, and it’s part of a zine coming soon)

Draconic peak lords, having ascended to full dragon hood, can shift between forms easily and so as mentioned above prefer to have less clothing that is easier to move around in. Normal draconic cultivators mimic those styles to some degree despite not being capable of shifting forms fully.

So less clothing = Shifts into other draconic forms more often. Lqg likes to hunt and travel and be in a draconic form a lot so he…doesn’t care much for clothing.

Yqy you’ll notice is very clothed and that’s because he just doesn’t ever shift to other draconic forms for sad reasons, and also to cover up as much of his scales as possible.

The other fun clothing headcannons (is it headcannons for an au??) I have are that the style and complexity of clothing also depends on the ranking of the peak and draconic hierarchy. Like Sqq has more jewelry and gems and Sqh has much simpler clothing and no gems. Lqg has gems because they’re a gift from Sqq.

The other reason for being so scantily clad is that draconic cultivation takes a Lot of time and effort, some more so than others, so people who have beaten their way to the top and ascended to dragonhood like to show off their scales and draconic features. Ahem Sj cough cough

Thank you so much for your curiosity! I like being able to infodump about my au especially since posting the comic and art for it takes a while 😅

I made this comic to celebrate the anniversary of my tmnt/rottmnt hobby 💥

I'm new to Tumblr, but there are already so many of you!! Whoa! I am grateful to you for following me, and for writing such sweet, pleasant words 😭💕 (sorry for not answering everything)

I am very sorry that there is so little of me here 😥

I should post more of my work here….hmm

THANK YOU AGAIN!!!

Hope you have a good day <3💕

p.s. there are probably a LOT of grammatical errors here, I hope you won’t be too strict with this 🙏🥹
