It was brought to my attention that burns and scars wouldn't be body horror. I'm sorry if this was hurtful or offensive to those with burns or scars. I warned it as such because the burns are so large and knew it could be shocking for some to see. I don't really know what is considered body horror and was trying to be sure I labeled correctly.

I've updated the warning and tags.

Currently working on character sheets for my art portfolio and I've been wanting to update/redo my Future Donnie sheet. He hasn't changed much, but it's more solid and I draw him pretty consistently now.

I have some alternate clothes and a better look at his arms too!

(tw/cw warning: large burns/scars)

He still very much looks like he robbed a Hot Topic store and it still purple and black themed.

I originally didn't have anything special going on under his sleeves, but I knew if I redid his design I would have to figure out how his marks are on the rest of his arms. The burns/scars were a more recent thought I came up with. I haven't ever really drawn scarring or burn marks like this, so it was a new experience.

Drew some sketches trying to get comfortable with the scars and marks and very quickly realized my error in doing 3/4 references instead of straight-on front and backs. I will make some references later, but this is how it is right now.

I feel like Donnie keeps them covered mostly for his family's sake, as they tend to get emotional when they see them. So, he generally has them covered up with sleeves of some kind. The warmth of the sleeves also help with the aches to some degree.

Thank you to @prismaticpanic!

The fic I was thinking of is His World by SkylerSkyhigh!

Hello,

I like your "eventually" story. Seeing the ghosts of your dead future family acting all casual would be hard, especially if you just barely survived the horrific event that was supposed to kick start the apocalypse that killed them all.

It's not really a subject i've seen explored a lot.

Thank you very much! I haven't really seen a lot of AUs involving the ghosts/Hamato spirits traveling back in time either.

One that does come to mind is @teainthesnow At My Worst fanfic. It's one of the few that actually has a spirit traveling back in time instead of someone as a whole.

There aren't actually a lot where everyone travels back either. I can think of maybe 2 that I know for certain that happens.

[stickynotelovers-art]

Wait! I remembered another fic I read that involves future Leo as a spirit/ghost traveling back in time!

I don't remember the name though, but somehow bad future Leo and 2012 tmnt Leos' spirits end up inhabiting Rise Leo's body and the rest of the Rise turtles get trapped in a magical music box; there's a bunch of musical numbers as Leo tries to free each of his brothers from the hypnosis they're under.

I cannot remember what it's called though. I think the author's name is Sky???

Hi how are you doing?

What if lmk characters are cavemen from stone age?

Language(s): grunts,growls,ape/cave-talk.

LMK Caveman AU

• They all have messy hair and bushy eyebrows

• shoes haven't invented yet so they walk around barefoot

• their weapons will be wooden clubs,spears,hand axes and daggers

• they all will live in a cave together as an tribe

• going out to hunt and gather for food

• they will eat meat,fruits,berries,roots,fish & nuts.

• and they are gonna groom each other's hair & picking off bugs on each other's back

It's been a while since I originally got this ask and I don't remember what I originally said but I thought I'd think about this again.

Definitely would follow similar humor and nuisance as like Phineas and Ferb or the Flintstone type of stuff.

However, would characters like Pigsy, Sandy, and the others demons be more animalistic/beast-like or still have mostly human characteristics?

Not to mention would the Celestial Realm exist or would it be more like the Jade emperor and such just being the leaders of the pack?

Would Pigsy still run a restaurant, but it would be like grubs and mud or something?

Wait what's the name of the second Casey jr? Is that Casey jrs twin or smth? Could you tell me more about the other Jones baby please!?

So, if I'm understanding correctly, basically my future au baby Casey and future Donnie got sucked into @snipersiniora future au and her OC Atsuko has claimed my baby Casey as her new baby brother. I don't know what the naming system would be for them though.

Mei was not prepared for this outcome.

The rough sketch of this comic has been sitting in my phone notes for a while and I finally had the motivation to draw it out!

Mei loves to tease/fluster Red Son in the show and the idea of her getting hit with the Uno Reverse card and just '.exe not working' in response is really funny to me. MK is just unfortunate enough to have to keep witnessing these instances.

I had the thought while working on it that it would be fun to draw Red Son's hair being in a constant state of flaming up as a way to show his nervousness. (also because I love making stuff glow c:)

OKAY. so I was at my Movie Club the other day and one of us asked an interesting question. If the turtles was able to have candles or incense. What will they be?

Well. If I had a candle. It will be Pink Sand from the Yankee Candle collection.

Ohhhh, this is interesting!

If we're talking Rise Turtles specifically, I think they would all have individual ones they like, but also ones that they all really like the smell of as well.

Leo would probably love things like Ocean Breeze or the stuff that's not really a literal scent called Neon Glow or something like that. I can also see him owning one of those candles that's the scent of a fictional character. He'd definitely have one based off Jupiter Jim.

Mikey would have basically anything citrus scented. Definitely would like cucumber scents, but probably also things with a deep scent. Like Pine Trees or Camp Fire. Also Pumpkin Spice.

Raph would probably like almost anything the others pick, but I think Fall and Winter scents would be his favorite. Like Hot Chocolate and Autumn Leaves.

Donnie would probably like the more subtle and/or non-organic scents like Clean Sheets or New-Car-Smell-Pleather. He will, however, fight you if you try to get between him and Vanilla Cupcake.

And, just for the fun of it, April would like floral scented candles.

UPDATE 1:

I'm closing commissions for the time being!

Nothing serious is happening, just want to do some updates to what's available for commission. I have some ideas on what to add and I want to take some time to determine the best ways to go about doing it.

It's a little under a month since I started commissions and I've learned a lot about how much time is put into it. I truly over-estimated myself on how quickly I can finish pieces.

I will probably just make a whole new post with the updated info on it.

----------------------------------------------

UPDATE 2:

In other news, I am, once again, stuck on Eventually chapter 4. Which by this point isn't really news and is more of a daily occurrence.

It's not a bad sort of stuck, mostly just trying to decide on how to go about doing part of it, but I also discovered a pretty major oversight on my part involving layout.

So, I don't know who remembers, but in the first chapter of Eventually there's a shot of Leo sleeping in the hospital bed. It very clearly shows his right arm in a cast (plus bandages I completely forgot about).

I completely blanked on which arm the IV would be attached to. I constantly reminded myself that his right arm is broken and in a cast but just totally overlooked that meant he couldn't have an IV attached to that arm.

Now, this was a definite whoopsie, but I caught it! (I'm also seeing as I'm typing this that the hospital bed does not match how I originally drew it, but that's a different-day-me's problem).

So, this is more of a tip I guess for people still learning 3D modeling.

Please, for your own sanity, save your shots as keyframes.

That means, instead of doing what I did, which was move the models and the camera around over and over again without being to get back to that layout if I changed it;

Have a default of the models as your first keyframe, where you leave them exactly as you positioned them originally

Make a new keyframe on the timeline and rearrange the models and cameras as you please

Rinse and repeat the 2nd step as many times as you need different shots

This will definitely save you from the hassle of having to go back and try to fix your shot and deal with maybe or maybe not getting it similar to what your original shot looked like.

Oh well, to make mistakes is to learn.

Reblogging to share awareness. I did get messaged by this person as well, which I haven't responded to. I try to do some digging around if I can when someone messages me. I found it very strange that they had a single post that was only a few days old. They also had only started following me and liked - specifically - my commissions info page recently. I didn't reblog this until now because I wanted to see if they would try to reach out again and they haven't.

Remember NEVER accept commissions from people who:

Only liked one of your art posts (the most recent one most often)

Ask for things you never draw that are super generic, like pets or selfies. (Scammers usually aren't gonna rock up with an undertale oc)

Only have one or two posts on their blog

Use generic urls that use generic real world names followed by numbers

Have their liked posts visible and just seem to be liking one art post from every artist they can find

Approach you asking for commissions when you haven't done commissions in a while (or ever)

Offer to pay absurdly high for artwork (of course they don't mind because they don't plan on paying you a dime)

A 'person' who just messaged me liked one post I just made then immediately messaged me asking for me to draw them a completely different subject, emphasizing that they would pay well.

No real person does this.

Be smart. Be safe. And remember...

PAYPAL WILL NOT HAVE ERRORS THAT REQUIRE YOU TO SEND MONEY TO ANYONE TO FIX! THAT IS MORONIC! DON'T FALL FOR STUPID SCAMS!

Commission for @snipersiniora of her adorable turtle tot Atsuko with her adopted baby brothers The Caseys and my Future Donnie!

I would not be surprised in the least if she painted a rock green and tricked Donnie into thinking it's uranium. This was an experience drawing these! I've never pictured myself drawing a child with a pink glittery shotgun, but it now exists! Lol!

[stickynotelovers-art]

Commission for @snipersiniora We got a whole group sonas belonging to Nonny (@nani-nonny), Radio (@middlechildkin), Dragon (@crazydragonlady3200), Sniper (@snipersiniora) and Drifiting (@keepsdrifting)!

My favorite is definitely the 4th page, lol! Getting to draw someone with an unsettling expression and sharps nails is always fun to do!

Who decided to make less work for herself by adding more work for herself?

While I say that, this was actually a great help to do this! (Even though I actually drew the rough sketch beforehand, it's nice knowing I wasn't completely off in placements of the bars and such)

I realized I was going to have to draw the bed and hospital equipment for Leo multiple times from at least.... 4?? different angles, I think. I knew this would be extremely difficult and time consuming trying to keep stuff looking relatively the same proportions and such, but then add in the fact that I will also be drawing up to 9 CHARACTERS in at least 1 panel and this became even more difficult to think about.

Very randomly in the shower I remembered that A) I have Blender on my computer for 3D modeling, B) I have a bachelor's degree in Game Art where I learned how to 3D model, and C) I need to practice anyway because it's been a few year. So yeah.

Looked up some reference images of what I needed and started modeling! Are they pretty? No. Would I use this as an example on how to 3D model? Absolutely not.

BUT! It gets the job done for the purposes I need it for. This is such a great way to make your own reference shots instead of trying to scour the internet for possibly helpful images. PLUS, it's a skill set you are learning!

I'm still trying to familiarize myself with Blender and am struggling trying to understand a lot of it's features, but I'm at least able to say I created something, lol.

(And yes, the bed doesn't actually have the bottom half, but I can just draw that on my own, I just mostly needed where Leo will be in the bed c:)

I'm going through my old wips and this is one that I plan to finish, but I just wanted to go ahead and share it because I have no idea when that will be.

I have a basic level of learned knowledge for animation and this was originally made when I was still learning Clip Studio Paint back when I first joined the ROTTMNT fandom.

Just so you guys can have a comparison, here's how the original Donnie was going to look:

Versus me quickly redrawing him on a new cell:

[stickynotelovers-art]

*sets this in front of donnie* alrighty have fun ✌️🫥 *poofs*

Donnie NO! You are already a turtle shaped glowstick, stop it!!

Little preview for the next Eventually chapter! This was so much fun and kind of a challenge trying to find the type of store front I wanted. I will admit I found a good ref shot and more or less traced it. There was no way I would get the lines straight and looking like what I wanted without doing so.

I had no clue where the medbay would be located, but then realized: GIFT SHOPS! Those are in the subway right? (Is it obvious I've never been in a subway before, lol) There's newstands and such, and apparently there are stores in Central Station, so I'm making the call that there's a gift shop where the new Lair is. It's a lot better option for them to have refurbed it into a Medbay than like a ticket counter or bathroom.

Mikey would definitely take whatever art supplies available to him and dress it up. I'm debating on keeping the doodles or changing them into the turtles signatures across the windows instead.
