HC that when Leo and Mikey were little Leo would cheer up Mikey by patting his shell like a drum
but as they got older he would stop doing it. Till post krrang invasion when Mikey was spending more time in his shell and Leo wanted to do something to cheer him up.
Decided to get silly and draw the inverse of the iconic "Victory Soldier" poster. And make it Heavymedic, of course.
Inspiration, progress pics, and alt versions under the cut
This poster! Always been a fan.
Initially I was gonna keep the same setting & color scheme, but the original poster distinctly has the top two thirds warm tones/bottom third cool tones. If I wanted to keep the piece cohesive it'd have to be RED Heavymedic vs BLU Soldier. And the more I thought about that the less it felt explicitly like Heavymedic fanart and more like propaganda for the RED team.
So I set it on Snowycoast! Its sky box and layout let me have cool top thirds/warm bottom third. Also it's one of the most beautiful maps in the game and I love drawing night scenes. Literally no downsides.
Progress pics!
Textless version, and an alt text version I made at the request of a friend:
And finally, since you've reached the bottom, some memes I made while working on it.
Hayy Happy Valentine's, here's a dump from my spam on Insta featuring my cringefail Medic oc Felix, he's basically just a gay ass Medic gf who will fuck any power class he sees lol, absolutely no depth to him whatsoever XD
Okay, I need help. My name is Tobi Holaday. I am 30 years old and nonbinary, living with chronic illness. I have a life saving operation happening soon. Currently, I work for a small local gallery in Milwaukee, WI. The problem is, my boss can't afford to give me medical leave and I am going to be out of work for two months. I have been trying to save money but I need help so that I can pay my bills and rent while I am unable to work. Any little bit you can do will be extremely helpful! Even if you can just reblog and spread this to others to help me get the word out and keep me from getting evicted.
I don't normally ask for help and have struggled through being homeless because of that trait. I am in a better spot, but if I become homeless again, this time while recovering from surgery, I do not believe I will survive. Anything you can do will be a big help. I'm gonna tag my fave fandoms to help get this started. Thanks everyone.
