Mikey Goes To Oz
Tumblr media Tumblr media
<Time spent: 49 hours 17 minutes>
When Mikey takes some time away from a loud family squabble he accidentally ends up getting “flushed” down the sewers. This winds up sending him to the colorful land of Oz where he meets a good witch, a wicked witch, a brainless scarecrow, a heartless Tinman, a cowardess lion, and a powerful wizard, all disguised behind very familiar faces.
A canon adjacent spin off set before the season one finale but after they discover Splinter is Lou Jitsu
I wanted to fit each of the boys into their “you’ve had this all along” category. Leo isn’t brainless, in fact he’s pretty clever with a street smart, people reading ability on par with Donnie’s intelligence. Donnie isn’t heartless, he just has a tough time expressing his feelings. They are complex and unalgorithic but he can get just as excited or sad or angry as anyone, as much as he may deny it. Raph isn’t a coward, but being brave sometimes means admitting you’re scared and that you maybe don’t have all the answers. You dont have to be strong all the time and you don’t have to do it by yourself.
In the movie Dorothy’s journey home is also a representation of her running away. The important thing was to remember there were people who cared about her. Mikey is experiencing a similar phenomenon, wanting the escape the bad vibes in the lair. His “you’ve had it all along” is interesting because it is an object, since the Ruby kneepads could’ve taken him home the whole time. And sometimes getting home means going on a journey only to realize you never left.
I put April as Glinda because Glinda appears as a defender of the weak, and I see April in a similar light. Always willing to help and beat someone up if it is so required. Splinter as The Wizard of Oz represents Splinters own willingness to hide behind different personas, his running from the past and the pulling back of the curtain for Mikey in timeline. The Wizard grows through the movie, albeit quickly, and ends up leaving Oz to go home leaving his legacy with the scarecrow, the Tinman, and the lion. In this case the passing of the baton to his sons.
Meanwhile Draxum as the wicked witch felt much more how Mikey sees Draxum at this time in the show, mostly just an antagonistic force who wants something from them. Fun fact: I imagine throughout this dream, Draxum is uninterested in being the wicked witch but is pressed into it via plot. Hence his disinterest in being “melted.”
Additional characters not pictured: Big Mama as the Wicked Witch of the East (those were her Ruby kneepads!!) and Todd as the Mayor of Munchkin Land. If you can think of more, feel free to leave them in the comments or tags.

Just a background for what I’m working on. I’m not sure the space is coming across the way I wanted to but hopefully, the people will help with that.

Just a quick sketchy comic. I can draw better but I didn’t have a reference and I was in the car and was trying to get it done as fast as possible to post before I lose my internet. I hope you like it.

An oldie for sure. I made this months ago intending to match it with a short story titled “As Long As I’m Alive,” primarily featuring the sunset duo.
It was inspired by a moment I had with my very own little brother who had a nightmare. When I moved out I had given him all my stuffed animals and this particular night back home I told my brother I would use my magic powers to imbue a stuffy of his choice with the ability to protect him from nightmares and monsters. He happened to chose the stuffy that had been my favorite as a kid. I gave it the biggest squeeze ever, than handed it to him saying I would always be apart of it, followed by a big hug to my little brother as well. He’s been sleeping well ever since.
Than I had to wonder what my brother would think of such a toy if I died, and since turtles are on the forefront of my mind, and Cass Apocalyptic Series was actively raging, I had to make a silly drawing bringing the idea to life.
Perhaps one day I’ll write the fic. But for now enjoy the picture. A pictures worth a thousand words, right?
Edit: can I- can I tag you @somerandomdudelmao. 👉🏻👈🏻 It’s not directly related to anything specific in the series but you’ve been a huge inspiration.

I could’ve gotten some better rendering on my iPad but I decided to go traditional. A messy crayon sketch for @somerandomdudelmao

Leo and his future.
I had a thought last night that young Present Leo may be able to help regrow Future Leo so I wanted to draw an interaction.
Guess what! I did digitalize it!

Mona Lisa
Tumblr media
Redesign with a lot more character behind it, and the color palette voted the favorite. Alas, she has a camouflage ability similar to a chameleon so all designs can actually be canon. If a sucker for gentle giant boyfriend and short and sassy queen. Mona was taken in by an old Yokai in the hidden city, she calls her her auntie.
My biggest references were Mona Lisa from the 1897 show and Mona from the IDW comics.

The Old Mona can’t come to the phone, why? Because she’s dead.

Will this be the last time I share this? Prolly not. But I love him, and I think I did a good job on his design.
