this may be too much to ask but do you have a tut on how to draw turtles in the mm style?? (or just at all my ass is suffering. i need to draw tmnt but my brain doesnt know how :c)

Sure ! I’ll try my best to explain (I made one after the first tottmnt trailer came out it’s outdated so I’m remaking it)

If you’re talking abt mm movie style , I don’t think I’m skillful on them enough to make an art tutorial 😭💔they’re hard for me to draw too

Info on keep reading :D !!

- I take hundreds of screenshots + download promo art and a create collage of it , use it as a ref sheet. I study on the shapes , proportions , and style of each character.

- Then I pick an image from the pile to see if it’s a good pose (if not, I find poses from other resources to draw) or expression I want to use as reference for my drawing

- then I start sketching , adding the sharp details . Clean up on lineart and color later

Other Notes :

- Tales of the TMNT artstyle uses sharp sketchy lines to give it that sketchbook artstyle

- In some frames from the show, Their eyes are pentagon shaped & pupils are not fully colored in. Mask tails have different styles too

- Each turtle not only have different headshapes , they have different plastron shapes too (these are fugly examples I accidentally deleted the OG layer of this and had to redo it LMAO)

- Looking at Tales crew art also rlly helps! (There’s a lot of them on the #/talesofthetmnt tag on insta & twitter)

the Tales of the TMNT artstyle is easy to nail imo , it’s like more of a simpler version of the rise of the TMNT artstyle if that make sense ?? That’s how I personally feel lololol

If you never drawn TMNT before , just go slow on your art process , look at references, & take your time . Draw the characters in your own style first if you want :] just to feel more comfortable and less stress trying to replicate the iteration’s style . overall , have fun <3

I usually suckkk at these art tutorial stuff but hope this helps :D !!

Go in the pile my beautiful muse.

I made it (mostly) monochromatic to make the eyes pop. Anyway, Des can be a little silly.

WELCOME TO CRINGETOBER 2024

As promised, the list is here one month in advance to allow for preparation time! Just like last time, there are no hard rules. Just a fun exercise to draw things considered “cringe” by popular culture! No stress needed :)

I go more in depth on the list here, so check that out! of course, feel free to send asks my way if any questions remain <3

I’m really proud of this year’s list, honestly. And I’m incredibly excited for October! I hope everyone has fun!!

Adding this to the pile.

Hey guys!!! Guess what?! In September, it will be the two year anniversary of Empyrean Weeping! It’s so crazy that I’ve held onto this show and these characters for this long, but I know y’all’s support have played a huge role in me loving this fandom so much! 💚

So since Donnie’s arc is up next, I’d thought I’d see if anyone would like to take a crack at a DTIYS!

This is just for fun, no deadline, and no rules—you can even do a stick figure version if you want, I’d love to be @‘ed to see it! Or tag it with @EWDTIYS!

I also have a transparent version below the cut if anyone would like to do a CTIYS!
