I am always open to reading critiques of the things I enjoy but your critique has to be at least coherent. Saw someone complain that the Rise boys are "too codependent" because "they only hang out with eachother and have no other friends." Brother that's all TMNT iterations what do you mean 😭

I don't think Rise Splinter is a completely unfift parent nor would I call him neglectful but I DO believe he dropped the ball at some point and I absolutely 100% believe Raph ended picking up the slack and it probably just... sorta became the new normal from then onward

I've been playing a lot of Silksong lately, so I'm sketching out a honeypot ant gal. She'll be up for auction at SOME point this month with an autobuy of $250.

How come all the boys but Raph got snazzy swimming outfits in Man vs Sewer??? Why didn't my big beautiful boy get to dress up??? I know it's the episode where he goes feral from being alone so him wearing anything other than the usual would probably distract from that BUT STILL

I don't know if the Rise boys were intentionally designed to look more human than in other iterations, but thinking about it just now it makes perfect sense IC. Every other version of the turtles were mutated by accident, but the Rise boys were made on purpose. They're literally built different

My collection of Raphael going insane and making weird faces over bugs grows

Mutant Mayhem/Tales Leo is just a little guy. I haven't figured him out yet but I have a feeling he hasn't either. I also have a feeling there's Something there. Give him a couple years and the invisible egg may crack

I am a trans Leonardo truther in many ways depending on which version we're talking about. 12 Leo is a trans girl in such severe denial she would have an aneurysm if you so much as suggested it to her, but Rise Leo is a trans guy with a whole bible of gender-related jokes to refer to when needed

Having said that, I will now proceed to write my dissertation thesis on how estrogen could have saved Leonardo Hamato (2012)

Friendly fire attack aimed at @skymagpie.bsky.social of Shazidra she's so pretty #TeamTragedy #Artfight2026 #art #artwork #artist #digitalart

if i could look like anyone i think i would look like the communist bear from forbes

The writers fumbled the bag SO HARD because extremely questionable age gap aside she was such a cool character with such a great design and she has a grand total of what? 4 episodes maybe? They just made her such an interesting character but then made the worst possible choices for her 😭😭😭

Spirit gets an honorable mention but I think the numer 1 place goes to Rainbow Brite and the Star Stealer I had this movie on VHS as a wee lad, it was in english which I did not understand a single word of at the time but I watched that movie RELIGIOUSLY as a child and still love it as an adult

Mona Lisa in the 2012 show is one of MANY characters who frustrate me greatly because the idea was good on paper but the execution was terrible for many reasons, first and foremost because SHE'S AN ADULT she VERY OBVIOUSLY AN ADULT and Raphael is STILL A TEENAGER when they meet WHO GREENLIT THIS

C0mm done for @groxi.bsky.social !

The way I hyperanalyze every little detail in whatever given TMNT show I'm watching as if they're not all silly cartoons meant for teenagers makes me feel genuinely insane. Like my head feels fuzzy I am haveing physical symptoms. And y'know what I embrace it, I'm having fun being insane

12 Leo and his broken (?) knee haunt me. It was such a huge deal at the start of the 3rd season, it's mentioned every other episode and is shown to be causing Leo a lot of grief, and then Splinter astral projects and tells him to get over it and. He does. And it doesn't come up again ever 😭

I said I didn't care about TMNT ships but I lied. I care when it's Raph and Casey 😔

Man it's such a shame that the Bayverse boys are so painfully ugly because their characterization isn't bad, they're pretty fun to listen to and I like watching them banter and do their thing but I don't like looking at them 😭

Bay Splinter is one of the funniest versions because most of the others have SOME connection to Japan, even 03 Splinter who was also a rat before he mutated, but from my understanding of it Bay Splinter doesn't? So he just picked up a book about ninjutsu and decided to become japanese for funsies 😭

Frutverse Donatellocore btw if you even care

I made a pinterest board for my TMNT fan iteration we are reaching critical levels of hyperfixation

Image of Splinter I drew for the TMNT 2003 Ninja Tribunal DVD. I created the cover and extra art for the menus. I wanted Splinter to have a cool moment for once—he’s always getting knocked out or kidnapped. Wish he kept this outfit! Art was inked on 14×17 Bristol and colored in Photoshop.

A crumb of WoW art! My greasy ex-Darkfuse agent, Lido. #warcraft #goblin

I am truly turtlemaxxed and turtlepilled. There are some iterations I like more than others, but there's not a single piece of TMNT media I consumed that I didn't like. Even the Bay movies with their ugly ass designs and their wack plot are still enjoyable for me. Peace and love in the turtleverse

ouuughhh

#artfight | Third attack: Father Sunday for @my-rotten-teeth.bsky.social #warcraft #art

03 Raph, 07 Raph and 12 Raph are all cats, Rise Raph is a dog and Tales Raph is a cat who was raised by dogs so he acts like a dog in a cat's body

They're not as polished as I'd usually make them because I kinda got tired of working on this set BUT I still really like how they're coming along so here. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles except they're in their 20s and also I'm in charge :) [ #art | #tmnt ]

There are many lines that get stuck in my head when I watch Rise but the one that takes the cake is Mikey's "Woah mama, people are getting RUSTIC out here"

Rise isn't perfect of course, it has a lot of flaws big and small that are worth discussing, but if I was allowed to go back in time and change one singular thing about this show I would change nothing except for DRASTICALLY reducing the amount of screentime Todd Capybara gets

Copperwell's still speeding down the road to ruining his life--but he'll make stops at Gazrik's along the way to pretend like nothing's wrong. A rare, makeshift sanctuary... and it won't last very long. Also lobster 🦞 Gazrik belongs to @mclowes.bsky.social! #wow #worldofwarcraft #goblin #art

The Bay TMNT movies are pretty bad but I still find them enjoyable as bad action movies. I cannot in good conscience however forgive the writers for making Casey Jones a cop

Tigresa attack on my beloved @deathbypixelz.bsky.social who has the coolest fursona ever in the world >:3 [ #art | #artfight2026 ]

I hope for nothing but the best dor Mutant Mayhem Leo and April but I am still severily traumatized by 2012 Donnie and April you must understand

I thought the 03 series was done stumping me with the Shredder being an alien in a robot body but I forgot about the ancient extinct civilization of bald people with cat eyes powered by mystic crystals under New York

My favorite Mikey has got to be 03 Mikey because the writers of this show understood the Michelangelo assignment in a way that hasn't been understood since

Coldriver (fore) and Riptide (behind) for StarCanid and RN-Roadster on ArtFight, respectively. I'm in an especially potent dinosaur mood tonight 🦖 #pixelzart #pathoftitans #sharemyattack2026

The sewers are flooding due to a storm and the other mutants are taking shelter with the turtles, which has Raph freaking out because it's Too Much, and when he lashes out he sounds genuinely distressed rather than just angry and I'm sitting here like oh my sweet child I know the feeling VERY well

Watching Tales of the TMNT season 1 episode 7 "Raph vs Water", squinting suspiciously at the beggining sequence, rewinding to watch it a few times before nodding sagely and pinning a photo of Raph to my conspiracy board titled "Unintentional Autism"

TMNT 2012 tends to answer all it's questions with "technology", "aliens" or "alien techbology", the worldbuilding leans HEAVY toward sci-fi but as I'm re-watching it I'm realizing there's also a lot more weird and inexplicable mystic fuckery going on in the background than I remember

Attack for @skymagpie.bsky.social hope you like it!!!!

My kick off to #artfight !!! These were both for SmarteeArtee (on twitter) I didn't realize they were from the same artist when I drew them, so it's a little embarrassing. I loved practicing these poses tho! #teamcomedy #shioshart #artfight2026

Commission for @feyawen.bsky.social

Suspension of disbelief comes ingrained into the TMNT experience but I am still getting headaches trying to comprehend 2003 Splinter becoming a ninjutsu master as a regular rat by copying his human owner's moves
