Hey Guys If I Told You One Of The @tmnt-reticent Characters Eats Rocks Who Would You Think It Would Be

Made a little something for a friend as a promise. He wanted Mikey cuddling my giant shark plushie. So here we are!!

Lost Ties TMNT Concept Sketches

Have finally read Last Ronin, it killed me, but it's the first actual tmnt comic l've read, very good.

Then I thought about how (as far as I'm aware) the official comics have yet to have an actual seperated storyline, so I took up the challenge to try and make a seperated tmnt AU similar in style to the darker IDW and Last Ronin comics cuz l've been experimenting with tons of styles lately

Very bare bones right now, but these sketches show the different groups the story focuses on: Jennika and Raph, cuz I have yet to tackle a sister character for the turtles in any of my stories.

Tang Shen, Karai, and Mikey cuz Tang Shen deserved better and I like the idea of the turtles having some kind of mother figure.

Donnie, Casey, and April. Think they've only met a bit recently as Donnie was more of a scavenger before stumbling upon April's shop or something.

Finally Leo and Shredder cuz we needed some edgy pairing, so here's the classic. I wanted to avoid this cuz it was so obvious, but it's classic and someone needs to end up with a villain, so here we go.

Splinter is still part of the plot, just kind of MIA. Hope you enjoy and I'll get more of this AU out soon (not abandoning any of my others, my brain just won't stop pumping out ideas).

they look like the 2012 boys but i swear they aren't, trust me

Teenage Mutant (not so) Turtles!

they are still ninjas but it just doesn't roll of the tongue as well

these designs are in no way final and the ref sheets i made a while ago reflect that

they looks so stupid, geez, I'm sorry i made them all half asian half latino because I'm latino, and they aren't exactly human either but close enough, yeah? enough to tag this as "human au" lol, more info under the cut!

I made these boys once when i the first thought of "if Leonardo was a human he would tie up his hair with his mask tails" and it escalated so quickly- It's also most similar to 2012 because that's the series I'm most well acquainted with!

In these AU the guys are BOTH yokai and mutants, so they can shape shift into humans! the mutation affected their "true" turtle forms to be humanoid and their human form traits to be more close to splinter, whom i have yet to settle on a design for, lol sorry.

i have so many doodles of these fools so here, have at them.

yes, raph and donnie are the "b team" in this au-

this casey design isn't the current one but his war paint is still there

these last two are a little more recent

Hi!! I was wondering if I could please submit my au! It’s called Turtles of the Hour!! They have a fic as well :D

look at these cuties!!

I just really want to say that the BLM movement is not a 2020 disaster by any means. I know a lot of ppl keep saying that this year keeps getting worse but I think that black voices finally being heard is a sign of improvement

Sooooooooo

I may have another au for the turtles.

I call it A Kraang Story! (No I will not explain why) it is a combination of rise and 2012, and it’s a separation au! FUN!

It starts out like this, Hamato Yoshi out living his best life as a semi famous B-list actor gets yoinked by the kraang for funky experiments. He’s turned into the shaggy rat man we all know and love and thrown into containment where he meets 4 toddler sized turtles. They latch onto him looking for warmth and Splinter decides then and there there that these are his children, and he’s going to escape to give them a life outside of containment.

So he hatches a plan

And the plan goes terribly.

Leo is taken from Yoshi for more experimentation, he has to decide between loosing his one window for escape or loosing Leo to the kraang.

Splinter chooses to escape. He leaves Leo behind running out of the facility with three wailing toddlers and into the sewers where they live for about a year. He fells guilty for leaving Leo but has convinced himself it was the correct choice and mourns as if there was nothing he could have done differently.

A year after their escape the gangs lair is raided and set aflame by shredder, who works closely with the kraang. Mikey is thought to be lost to the blaze and Raph is stolen by shredder. Splinter only makes it out with Donnie and is devastated. He takes after rise splinter with his depression arc and Donnie wanting nothing more that to cheer him up. He eventually stops trying after numerous failed attempts. He does make a friend in April after a brief encounter on the surface.

They boys all meet up again in their teens each different ages. Leo and Donnie are twins because I love the disaster twins too much lol.

Leo & Donnie: 16

April: 15

Raph: 15

Mikey: 14

Each of the boys are also a different breed of turtle:

Leo: Diamond back terrapin and Leatherback sea turtle (mixed by extensive kraang experiments)

Donnie: spotted softshell turtle

Mikey: Eastern Box turtle

Raph: common snapping turtle

Designs will be makes soon!
