Alright I knew the whole hype for the rottmnt movie wasn't nothing but first I went with my gut and finished the series and my god I'm so glad I did
Lotta ranting and spoilers ahead for the season 2 finale
MY FUCKING GOD I LOVE THIS SERIES!!
It starts as wholesome funs and goofs but the further we go the more we realize there was a lotta thought behind it, they didn't introduce the plot till the last episodes of season 1 and even then we didn't know shit!
Amazing story, amazing character (and character choices) amazing fucking art style I'm so in love
I don't think I need to say anything about the story just that it's good really really good (2 reallys)
On the other hand I do wanna talk about the characters
Im in love with the turtles designs and the way it symbolizes their personalities so well and Leo's my favorite cuz compared to his brothers his look doesn't signify his strength or intelligence or even his childlike enthusiasm, he's perfect sized and has his cool stripes he's just perfect, except that he isn't he crack bad jokes and makes mistakes alot and that's not a bad thing he looks perfect but he's not and that simple detail makes him fit with his bros perfectly
Enough about Leo (I'm a little biased) i wanna talk about the show's loyalty to certain thing and it's bold decisions and I can go on on this topic for hour but I'll use the perfect example
CASEY FUCKING JONES yes the reveal caught me so off guard I had to pause for like a minute to process, I loved her from the beginning loved her energy but I wasn't sure if she's a plot centered charachter and I'm so glad she is I'm so happy the didn't introduce her from the start
(not saying that it wouldn't have been good if they did, we have April aka the best character ever to prove that her character design changes didn't effect me at all and I fell in love with her from the very first episode we need more badass poc girls in media and rotmnt DELIVERED)
I wish I could talk about how much I love Splinter and his arc but the post is getting long and I don't think anyone's gonna read this anyway
TL;DR the series is amazing one of the best animated series I've seen and I cant wait till I watch the movie and rant more lol
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:)
It's here! The beginning of the fancomic that I've been making for a few months now. I started planning this thing almost a year ago, and I am so excited to finally be sharing it. I'll make a proper dedicated side-blog for it later. Next couple pages drop in a week :)
Edit: Updated Navigation tools. Also, there is a side-blog now @heretherebeturtles-comic
A sketch of my version of artemisia from @mooncalfe with some sketches of Leo from the movie. This sketch does have spoilers from the movie so I won’t go into detail about, in case anyone hasn’t watch the movie.
And I’m not to sure if I want to make a au yet with Artie but I might, but if anyone wants to make a au around the sketch, I don’t mind it. But anyways I hope that everyone has a good day.
