Can we all just agree Leo ain't some dumbass idiot some people typically depict him as? I mean he literally outsmarted Big Mama and that's because people tend to underestimate him for what they usually see him from the outside(Now that I think about, that's probably intentional aswell.) We need more Manipulative/cunning/two-faced/gaslighter!2018Leo...only towards his enemy though, but maybe a tinny bit towards his family, for good reasons.
Not to cause any misunderstanding, the art belongs to someone else, no worries I got their permission to post it.
So...this is basically a little animation test we did to see if we can replicate the style of the original show. Turns out we can haha. And now that we know that, we want to do more~

Quick Q&A: Yes, you can use this animation for gifs/icons/edits/headers/profile pics/redraws and other stuff. Just include the credits. Please:)
the video on YT got blocked in some regions bc of the song, and i was a fool for posting the YT link to the video here on tumblr, so i am posting it again
posting these animations i did when i was trying to get used to using clip studio paint
im not sure if ill go back to finishing these so lemme write about the concepts i had in mind for those who're interested in readin about them...
the first gif was donnie telling casey how he figured out the estimates for everyone's ages with leo cutting in sayin "twins" (theyre not but yknow how leo is). i personally think theyre simply born in the same year (not like "oh im 5 minutes older" since how would they know?) which is enough for leo but i digress....mikey brings out a birthday cake and the turtles learn that casey doesn't even know what cake is (hilarious hijinks ensue)
second one is post-season 2 where the turtles are still moving to the new lair = donnie ignored his wounds all this time in favor of securing the lair, something he thinks is far more important than some silly cuts on his back. also medic leo!!! the reason there are no other brothers in the scene because leo is simply changing the wraps on don's back in the middle of the night because the former couldnt sleep :)
fanart for @annonniiiiieeeee's fanfic, A World of Samurais and Ninjas
This is the fic that made me care about Rise!Leo x Usagi tbh. I've got a huge softspot for '03 KatanaShipping, but it was strictly platonic/non-romantic with other versions. And then this fic happened so.
TL;DR - The fic? Leo's rescue from the prison dimension ends up with Mikey having a portal mishap. Leo gets sent to Usagi's dimension instead, where a teen Usagi (with his dad teacher Katsuichi and Gunichi) find him very injured.
