Ones Hands Can Tell The Story Of How Theyve Lived And How Far They Have Come.

Ones hands can tell the story of how they’ve lived… and how far they have come.

I’m a sucker for Good Dad Splinter ever since I watched TMNT ‘03. That rat was gifted sapience and his immediate instinct was kindness. I love that for him.

Rise Splinter lived a rollercoaster of a life, but as a Hollywood star he remembered the names of all his stunt guys and coworkers, and as a prisoner he cared for the rat that shared his cell. His sons are very close and physically affectionate, I think that says something about how he cares? That’s just how I like to headcanon him :)

It’s interesting to explore the idea that a seemingly monstrous transformation is what pushed him to be a kinder human

Sigh… I’m not entirely sure what this is supposed to mean but it exists now… I wanted to play around with styles and whatnot

At this point I just wanted to draw Donnie in swanky armour

Inspired by waiting in the wings reprise scene from the tangled series

Him <3

Stumbled across an au fic by @onejellyfishplease and I couldn’t NOT draw fanart. The fic is called Open Your Shell To Find Your Wings by Jellyfish_Sandwich on ao3. It’s definitely worth the read!!
