justttt some stuff i've accumulated over the past 2 months or so!! maybe 3 but idk at this point. the year is passing so fast it's INSANE- my art is like the main and only thing that feels somewhat accurate to how much time has passed lolll- ANYWAYS onto the art!! it's a lotta turtles, get ready. space/arrow keys to proceed, click to zoom in. not mobile friendly unfortunately :( 1. DISASTER TWINS!! this was my 2nd time drawing leo and 1st time drawing donnie, and i think you can tell. definitely not as confident with some shapes as i am now. but i remember i found this screenshot online and i was with a friend and was freaking out and she was so supportive lol (LIVE LAUGH LOVE SHASHA) i think donnie looks ADORABLE here but leo is a little off with the expressions and colors haha. the background is also LAME but yk it's me so of course. if i had known more about the actual episode before i drew this i would've been able to make it nicer and add cool shirts (AROACE FLAG) but eh that's fine. 2. DONATELLOOOOOOOOOOOO my HEART AND SOUL!! definitely was still learning how to draw him, but this is pretty good!! i like the bg a surprising amount :DD (also colors are beautiful-) 3. 1ST MIKEY AND RAPH APPEARANCE!! i really need to draw them more... I ADORE THE WAY RAPH CAME OUT THOUGH AGHHGHGHG HE'S SO BIG AND BEAUTIFUL <3 this screenshot is SO underrated no one talks about it but like LOOK HOW PRECIOUS THEY ARE ALL WATCHING TV TOGETHER,,, this whole episode is gold. anyway i showed this to my uncle and he said raph was very shiny and pretty. you heard it from him, not me. 4. okay this is (in my opinion) mid but my brothers LOVEEE this one...but the hands are so BADDD!! this was my first time drawing april (obviously) and i really butchered her. trust me, i get better at drawing her. (ominous foreshadowing) BUT THE CHIBIS ARE CUTE I ADORE THE DONNIE AND RAPH ONES 5. leo being...yknow...i ALSO showed this to my family and they asked if leo was queer the SECOND they saw it and i was like "YES??? UM???? IDK????" and then we watched a video and now i CONFIDENTLY believe he is (NO HATE TO THOSE WHO DON'T BTW, it is kinda confirmed by ron corcillo BUT I LITERALLY DON'T CARE IF YOU THINK HE'S GAY OR NOT NO I VALUE ALL RISE LOVERS) 6. YEAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! i worked so hard on this. SUNITA CASEY APRIL!! i love the way casey came out love my extreme lady. the colors are pretty cool!! i think it's a LITTLEEE outdated and i could probably do better now but this took way too long for me to redo it already what it's been like a month let it rest 7. okay soOOOoo i made this after i had a debate with my ex-art teacher about the value of digital art, so that's why it's not as good as normal (i got real demotivated after hearing a bunch of invalidating stuff what can i say) I LOVED THE WAY THE FLATS LOOKED BUT I TRIED WAYY TOO HARD WITH THE SHADING AND SCUFFED IT ALL UP :( anyways it's 2012 x rise crossover i love 2012 and rise so very much (don't tell me rise leo wouldn't BEG 2012 to paint the red stripes on.) 8. still in my art blocked phase. BUT i found the song i wish we never met by cmten (the song playing rn lolll) and i got reallyyyyy into it and did this in an hour because HONESTLY 2012 april does NOT DESERVE DONNIE AT ALL and i want them to just never speak again and that way donnie can move on...poor guy :( 9. SAME DAY???? ART PIECE???/ i mean none of these two are GOOD but i just wanted to draw SOMETHING so here we are. lyrics from twin-sized mattress bc that song is great :heart_eyes: i very much enjoy making leo suffer yes 10. i drew this at the same friend's house but at a different time :skull: ANYWAYS THE ROGUE'S HEIR AYLA BABYYYYYYY I LOVE HER PRECIOUS GAL. follow already i have your family in my basement /j 11. AN I WISH WE NEVER MET ART PIECE BUT ACTUALLY GOOD THIS TIME!! this took so long but very worth it i like all the letters in the background and the computer windows and 2012 donnie is so fun to draw- no it's so funny whenever i want to draw anything it always ends up being HIM?? i have so many doodles of him in my sketchbook and schoolwork books and just EVERYWHERE??? he's not even my favorite in 2012 or even second??? and i like the rise turtles way more then him bc his arc irritates me???? i guess i'm just wishing that he wouldn't be defined by the person he has a crush on and so i'm drawing him in breakup scenarios because 2012 APRIL BEGONEEEEE ok i will talk about this later bc i have so much to say on april :skull: END OF THE ART...it's not a lot i know i'm v slow
anyways...this is probably my last art dump/activity for a good while, sorry guys :'D i will respond to some messages but i'm dropping out of EVERYTHING i'm a part of rn to focus on color coded and my tmnt obsession...just myself in general, i want to value myself as a consumer and not just a creator now. i tend to be really ambitious, if you couldn't tell, and i think the eyes being on me all the time fuels that in an unhealthy way. something about the attention getting to my head and causing me to burn myself out/try to constantly be outputting, etc. and i want to focus on fulfilling my own personal goals and projects that i actually want to do. and it's been really refreshing putting myself first! but anyway. i think i'm also leaving because a lot of others around me are as well. i've been wanting to for a good bit now, and after a couple friends of mine had to leave i'm gonna go ahead and do it. sorry to all my friends who expected me to stay for longer, but i think this is a lot better for me. all of you mean so so so much to me and i hope this doesn't make you sad or anything- we'll probably meet again reallll soon with how a lot of my future passions involve the internet somehow. so yeah i guess stick around and maybe in a bit we can talk again :DD thanks scratch! it's been an amazing 3 years! credits: i wish we never met - cmten procreate on ipad + apple pencil #games #artonthegames LY GGX
