I’ve been slowly going insane over Donnie and Raph they have me in a chokehold I love them muy Mucho

Blah blah Donnie goes through a second mutation, which results in him, inheriting his own “savage mode” which leads Raph into having to train him how to control himself just two bros bonding and falling in love with the idea of being wild and not having to hide it blah blah

So regarding the next chapter of Glorious:

(Minor spoilers below ig?)

Raph and Casey Jr are in the sewers rn, somewhere close to the old lair. Raph is hurt (Casey bit him) and needs antivenom

The epf is gonna capture the turtles and cj either way, I was just wondering if raph and cj should be captured now and used as bait

here's my new tmnt comp, go wild

Welcome to The Iteration Competition!

Pit your fan-made TMNT iterations against each other! Team up with friends and allies! Vote on your favorite iterations!

Iteration vs AU:

An Iteration is a brand-new story created with new versions of the characters. An AU is a story built or deviating from an existing storyline. For example, Mutant Mayhem and ROTTMNT are iterations, while Like Father Like Son is an AU.

Rules:

No bullying or hate towards anyone. It will not be tolerated.

No fighting over ships. On that note, shipping the brothers with each other (tcest) will not be tolerated.

Please keep everything SFW.

Submissions are open! They close in two weeks (on April 14th).

inspired by @goobersforlife @tmntaucompetition-competition and @tmnt-oc-comp

Hi @birthday-cake-rockz! I hope its okay if I answer your questions here in a separate post. I definitely have some tips and thoughts for help with drawing Raph.

First of all, I recommend This free PDF of the book "Morpho - Fat and Skin Folds: Anatomy for Artist" for those who are interested in really getting familiar & comfortable with drawing larger/fat/thick body types. (Make sure you click the second link, the first one is broken)

Now for Raph specifically, I do have a one very important shape I use when I draw him that might be helpful:

A lot of people like to associate diamonds with Raph as much as squares, and I think that's accurate to his design, too! The boy has a lot of serious neck muscle going on, and so his trapezius muscles and those surround it are gonna be more visible. Which actually creates a diamond shape around his collarbone and upper body. If you follow along with the angles of his shell, you can create this shape to help give him that stronger upper body look!

As for his leg proportions, that's a bit tricky because unlike his brothers, Raph's lower limbs are disproportionate to his upper limbs. It's a case of "you have to understand the rules of anatomy in order to break them".

SO!! Real quick anatomy lesson that I learned in art school: the average adult body should be about 7 heads high. Because the boys are teenagers, theirs come up to be about 6 heads high, which I credit to their younger age. But as you can see by the red marked areas, everything is still in normal proportion.

Raph, on the other hand, is different.

Raph's arms are as long as his body is, and his legs are much shorter than his arms. Because of this, he's actually disproportionate to his brothers, since his height is only about 5 and a half heads tall, rather than 6 or 7. In particular, his thighs seem to be unequally shorter in length than the calves. I think its important to keep that in mind when draw him! Because even if you know he's made up of all these thick, blocky shapes, if you try to give him the normal proportions you would Leo or Donnie or Mikey, it might still not look right. He's a stocky lad, and his upper body strength is showcased by these design choices.

Hope all this was helpful for you guys. Now go be free and draw him to your hearts content! :)

Additionally, here are several other links to posts people have created that give references of Raph and the other turtles! I'm sure these will be a big help, too.
