never not thinking about ✨the helmet✨ as a vessel of showing affection in racing. mechanics kissing their drivers helmet. drivers giving each other pats on the helmet in lieu of ruffling hair. cradling the side of the helmet as if it were a cheek. opening each others visor.
the helmet both protecting its wearer and some of their most vulnerable spots, but also bearing the sign of individuality they bring to the sport,, the helmet portraying the essence of a driver, their individuality, their spirit, the touch to the helmet so soul-baring.
the helmet as a symbol of love and devotion, isolating and protecting its wearer while also forging an intense connection to the environment, eyes through the visor at the height of concentration containing every emotion on the spectrum from the highest high to the lowest low... the swapping of helmets as a deep sign of respect, i trust you to keep my battle-worn armour safe as i will yours,
Just noticed that I haven't showed the upload version of the character lineup and design for my TMNT au
What if TMNT took place in São Paulo, Brasil instead of NYC?
Donatello is a Green Sea Turtle, he has an expandable bo staff and he specializes in machines and underwater combat. He's the fastest of his brothers inside the water and has a part covered in water that he calls his lab. However he's the slowest in land and has some difficult on fighting in land.
Michelangelo is a Tracajá (Yellow Spotted Amazonian River Turtle), he's the youngest and is the fastest of his brothers on land, he also has a natural camouflage that all tracajás have. Miguel has alongated claws that helps him in fight when he isn't with his weapons, altought he has to be extra careful with them to not hurt his family and friends
Rafael is a Cherry Head Tortoise. He's the tank of the team, always stepping in to the fight first to protect his brothers, especially Donnie (Donatello can't go inside his shell, Sea Turtles can't do that). He does have rage outbursts but is learning how to deal with it by cooking and baking. He always have some sort of snack inside of his shell (granola bars, chocolate,etc). He doesn't know how to swim, so he's usually paired with Donnie in missions.
Leonardo is a D'orbigny's Slider, he's the eldest and the leader of the team. He worries too much about every single thing, he wants to follow his father steps and become a great ninja. Leonardo always has a plan C just in case. He munches his bandana when he gets bored or when he dissociates. He cares too much about missions, but the safety of his brothers are his number one priority and he has little to none self preservation.
