I’m back on doll making so here’s a little sunny for the warmup :]c✨
His eyes weren’t originally planned to look like that but I umm messed that up so I added an eyelid to cover it now he has this smug face going on which I honestly like more than the plan hehehe
gale is so funny for being like yeah i’m going to have my cake and eat it too re bucky like sorry no you can’t have anyone else sorry no you can’t kill yourself sorry no i won’t fuck you or tell you i love you yes of course i’m still marrying marge when this is all over stop trying to chew your own leg off while i’m sniffing her perfumed letter it’s getting weird but do you know that i really did believe that if there were two b17s left it'd be you and me flying them. hold onto that crumb until we die hand in unlovable hand i guess
Small but significant character moments that I actually really adore are from both the times we see the boys as tots. There is a reoccurrence that happens in both of them that I find so incredibly interesting.
For the turtle tot short, Splinter leaves the boys with weapons. In the short, Raph is the one who suggests they do “what Lou Jitsu would do” and Leo is the one who takes point when Splinter comes back to reprimand them. Leo, in taking point, is the one to defend them and get Splinter off their tails.
And then, in the flashback regarding the Kuroi Yōroi helmet, Raph is the one who grabs and throws “Skully” as a way to replace their missing ball which breaks it into pieces, but Leo is the one who speaks for the group and rushes into action to fix the teapot.
I love this for multiple reasons, but the biggest are how it shows that Raph has always been inclined toward the bold and fun and making the plans to include his brothers in what he loves and believes they’d love, whereas Leo has always been inclined to be the “Face” of the group and shoulder the attention even if it’s potentially negative all while coming up with on the spot attempts to fix the situation.
