Slowly working on Funguary, first 5 prompts
I had a dream where I was a werefolk who can turn into a raven creature, and I was bringing gifts from mortal realm to cryptic creature in another dimension One day this blind giant spider took notice that someone visits him, and tried to catch bird, but it escaped and stopped showing in his realm And then spider has decided to find bird by himself, arriving as an anthro being in formal suit, because, y'know, you don't want to scare mortals by showing in original building sized spider form So I drew this pal and want to doodle bird as well, but maybe a bit later It's funguary soon, and I need to finish some owed stuff first :']
Kinto in color! Pretty happy with this design I think. I’ll have to make another ref though that shows them in a proper anterior and posterior position.
The idea that Draxum designed mutagen to increase subject aggression is making me reevaluate how I think about the newer mutants. To what extent are they responsible for their own actions? If some creep jumps out of the bushes and jams a needle full of PCP into your arm, it’s not your fault if you flip out and start chucking rocks at people because your brain’s gone sideways.
PCP wears off eventually, though. Mutagen does not. The way some mutants act makes a lot more sense in that context. Like, I seriously doubt all six of these regular-ass human guys were okay with murdering children.
But after the mutagen worked its way into them? Draxum sang a song about why they should help him murder a bunch of annoying thirteen-year-olds and they were all like “hell yeah dude we’ll absolutely help you murder a bunch of annoying thirteen-year-olds!”
The turtles are mostly doing okay because they’ve been mutated for 13+ years, nearly their entire lives. But they’re still noticeably Unhinged™ in a way that can’t just be handwaved by them being chaotic Gen Z teenagers.
Splinter’s childhood in the Hamato Clan and adulthood in the Battle Nexus meant he was sick and fucking tired of fighting by the time he got mutated, so that helped counteract the mutagen’s effects. That he specifically vowed to care for the turtles and prevent them from turning into “violent monsters” also helped, though he’s still not immune to being Unhinged™ himself.
Teach your sons a lesson by making them fear for their lives! And let your newly-sapient daughter help! What a good example to set for her! Did you drop this, King? 👑
As time goes on, the new mutants will adjust to their new bodies and minds and chill out a bit. We already see moments of unexpected compassion from them in later episodes.
Repo called the “senseless carnage” of the drone fights a “shame” instead of just being happy he got new scrap. (Breaking Purple)
Hypno entertained Leo with a magic trick instead of attacking him with it. (The Clothes Don’t Make The Turtle)
And Rupert spoke reassuringly to Mikey as he helped him finish the cooking challenge. He didn’t even insult or threaten Mikey once, even though they were in a very stressful situation and that was practically his job on Kondescending Kitchen! (Battle Nexus: New York)
IDK if the turtles will ever be able to consider these guys allies outside of an emergency, but as time goes on they’ll gradually transition from being Genuine Threats to Team Rocket-esque “threats”.
TL;DR none of the new mutant antagonists are actually evil, they’re just fucked up because Draxum injected Magic Science Murder Juice into them without their knowledge or consent. Once the passage of time or retromutagen lets them regain enough of their moral code they’re probably going to be horrified with themselves.
Seriously, Rupert is 7+ feet tall and built like a brick shithouse and his ability absorption has him rearranging his body structure on a semi-regular basis, all that adds up to a terrifyingly high calorie requirement. I’d probably resort to cannibalism too tbh.
The birds and the bees- a toh mini comic
I apologize, the first few panels look a bit clunky since the sketches were so lazy (I initially doodled it without the idea of it being a comic) but I hope it’s still ok
Whoo first post! Decided to show off my collector oc who’s name was based off of my favorite constellation. Dudes been through a lot of changes haha
I was very inspired by @wake-up-and-face-the-sun and various others who had collector OCs so I really couldn’t help myself 😭
My page will probably be dedicated to just a bunch of toh stuff, very excited to see what the community has in store here!
redesigned my truesona to have my hair :]
(and my autism)
Kinto expression sketch page. I haven’t drawn them in awhile so I have to practice again haha
