How Da Heck Did I Not See This???? That Looks So Good???????

How da heck did I not see this???? That looks so good???????

!!CW!! Broken bones and blood

I was listening to an edgy song and remembered “puppeteer Gaggle” from @sm-baby’s Carnival AU, and and got an idea

I’m planning on making a digital version that’s a bit more… intense but have this for now

Bonus:

If you can’t make it out Gaggle is saying “I had a bad day, so blorbo had to suffer lol (dw I’ll write some fluff when he respawns)

Is this gonna be a good or bad end au?

The Amazing Digital Circus finally got to me....

With that said, allow me to introduce you to the circus's very own...

Animal Tamer!!

Abel!

Aka, my own personal take on the speculation surrounding C&A.

There's biblical imagery in TADC if you look for it, especially when it comes to our beloved Ringmaster himself, Caine, who's believed to be named after the first murderer in the bible. That paired with the C&A logo that briefly shows up has led people to believe that Caine had a brother named Abel.

This is just what I think Abel would look like if he does show up in the future or at all. I imagine Abel's an AI, like Caine, but is surprisingly emotionally intelligent and ran the program that allowed humans to leave the circus. (Slight reference to @fannele's version of Able) If we follow the pilot, then something happened to him, but since Caine was described to be a silly guy by @gooseworx themselves, I don't think he had anything to do with it. (If he did it might've been an accident.) The programmers might have potentially removed Abel or accidentally deleted him for some reason, we can't know for sure.

Those are just my thoughts on Abel and whether it's right or wrong, I don't really care. I just like how this guy came out! I'll be honest though, I probably should've chosen a better pose that convey's Abel's personality a bit more. That and he just generally looks like Caine but with a different outfit and a different head. He low-key looks like if Caine wanted a to wear a very slight Sonic themed outfit.

Idk, I guess I just subconsciously wanted Caine and Abel to be twins. (Darn it ninja turtles you have invaded my brain even now!!).

Anyways. That's just my take, hope you like!

Ma boiiiii✨✨✨

Thank youuuuu. I was happy the first time I saw the drawing but THIS-

I did a colour version for my able, @sillyandquest able, and @sm-baby able.

Here are those doodles I promised, just more interactions between cousins as well as two doodles with April and May.

Honestly, even if your Caine feels regret over your Able's condition, my version of Caine still wouldn't like him. He can't quite understand emotions like Abel can, so my Caine doesn't trust your Caine very much.

I've been doodling a lot of turtles lately. These are the results.

Just some Rise boys, specifically, the Mutant Mashup boys. I started off with Donnie in like a crouching pose for funsies but thought soon after, "huh, what if I just practice drawing his expressions from the show?" Now look at em.

Some musings below the cut if you wanna read.

Their markings aren't set in stone, I can't decide between diamonds for Raph or something closer to those concept ninpo markings on Twitter for him. Leo is already pretty decked out with markings so not much to add there. Aside from maybe two more stripes that grow up to the corners of his mouth as he ages, or maybe extra stripes on his legs, Leo's pretty much set. Mikey's in the same boat, though I like to add extra spots for flavor. I had a little more fun with Donnie's marks. I liked the thought of him having a mark over his nose, it kinda looks like a bandaid which I enjoy. Plus I gave him some marks on his face that kinda match Leo's y'know, disaster twins and all. I intended to give him a mark on his neck for his "unemotional bad boy image," but I kept forgetting to add it and just decided to scrap it.

Since I shared the Rise kiddos, I'll just add the 2012 boys. Consider it an early reference for their face markings.

These boys I didn't use references for so they are off model quite a bit. The doodles were only meant to show their markings anyway so they'll do for now.

Since these boys are technically quadruplets, I decided to give them matching/mirrored marking placements and all their markings relate to their elemental ninpo. DaVinci's got a cloud on his right cheek which is opposite to Sanzio's, who's got a fire mark on his left cheek. Niccolo's got a splotchy marking on his right eye, completely opposite to Simoni's lightning bolt mark on his left eye. I'm not totally sold on Simon's eye mark and am probably gonna tweak it a bit.

Also, I didn't realize it but Zio and Nico have the same smile. Same with Vin and Simon.

Final note: I do still want to make them look like TMNT 2012 to an extent, so more practice and more references to come.

That should be all, I've got a few doodles that I wanna explain in another post but they gotta wait until I'm more rested. This one was just an explanation.

Stay safe y'all!!
