So um I’ve been watching Tmnt 2012 and I thought about what if the 2012 gang were all different species like in Rottmnt plus some gender headcannons so here you go

Raphael is a common snapping turtle and bi-gender (because I stan bigender Raph in all iterations). Partly inspired by his Rise counterpart, but common snappers are more aggressive than alligator snappers thus it fits her.

I noticed Leo’s model has some white spots, so I made Leo a spotted pond turtle. Also transfem Leo real‼️🗣️

Donnie is already tall in this iteration so why not make him taller. Credit to @/kikipups.draws for the idea to make them a Roti-island snake-necked turtle. I headcannon Donnie is a Demi boy.

I made Mikey a high orange Mississippi map turtle because they’re a pretty species and I’m happy with how she came out. Also gender-fluid Mikey because yes.

They all still have their weapons, I just didn’t feel like drawing them 🙃

Tmnt mutant madhouse (in Mississippi)

Leo has gone completely numb from trauma, and mikey is staring at his brothers face and reminiscing and what once was…

[tmntforeverinmyheart]

tmnt Mississippi iteration has a name!!

Tmnt Mutant Madhouse (in Mississippi)

Please send me asks about my silly turtles who live in Mississippi for some reason :)

notes I wrote about the kraang:

.most are mindless feral beasts (think of the cupcake from FNAF)

.some constantly maintain the ship in space

.they created the mutagen

.have been around for thousands of years

.kraang is enclosed and protected when controlling the robot body

.transform robot face into any person living, dead, and or that doesn’t exist. Including the robot body into clothes and or skin.

[tmntforeverinmyheart]

Some silly dynamics my boys have

[tmntforeverinmyheart]

Mutant madhouse

Raph couldnt see any other option. He ran as fast as he can and commanded every ounce of strength to push the shredder over the cliff. He went over too and with the shredders weight pulling him down, donnie couldnt pull him up. His hand slipped out of Donnie’s hold. And raph fell into the ocean.

[tmntforeverinmyheart]

Ive finalized my designs for my

tmnt: Mississippi iteration!!!

Eeeeek!😝

i am so happy with them!

❤️🧡💜💙

[tmntforeverinmyheart]

Lots of notes about Tmnt mutant madhouse

Donnie defending himself in court, no biggie 😊

[tmntforeverinmyheart]

Tmnt mutant madhouse

Casey and Donnie my beloveds

[tmntforeverinmyheart]

@tmnthungergames my boys are so excited to verse eachother in the hunger games

They have no idea what is coming :(

[tmntforeverinmyheart]

First time using alight motion :D

Leosagi does happen in my Tmnt iteration, and they are the cutest.

This is keiko, they are a sibling of 3. And are the middle child in their family. They love art and can and will spend hours on end drawing. They spend most of their days outside, exploring their village (not going beyond the wall) they are very timid and quiet, until they meet Leo. They relate to him and become fast friends with him. Leo makes them laugh.

This scene takes place when both of them are head over heels for eachother. Both have worries and doubts that the other will only see them as a friend. Until keiko catches Leo staring at him. Keiko returns a smile, to Leo’s chagrin.

They’ll laugh at this later looking back on their young selves. For this was the night when they shared their first kiss.

[tmntforeverinmyheart]

okay so tell me more ab your mississippi boys and their backstory

Will do :3

Leo 12 he/him: Leo feels he doesn’t belong as part of the team. His brothers all have something that’s special about them. But all anyone sees when looking at him is that he’s the youngest. He feels adrift amongst the people he cares about. And that feeling hasn’t changed since.

He distanced himself from everyone as he got older. Pushing himself deeper into their fathers training, Perfecting his techniques. He wanted to be stronger and faster than his brothers. His father was impressed with his fast progress, but extremely worried about his sons mental state. When splinter tried to talk to him, Leo pushed him away.

When Leo was younger, he and Mikey would follow Raph everywhere. They wanted to be like their big brother. Leo loved trouble and making mischief with Raph. There are many pictures of Leo up on Raphs walls. Now that his little brother has grown up. Raph has less pictures.

Mostly Leo is kind and caring. He’s hard working and pushes himself often to his limits. He’s distant from his family and wishes to prove himself to them. Self conscious about his small height and being the youngest. He loves plants and cares for a bonsai tree (a gift from April) once they form a team and meet the shredder. Leo feels like a liability, shredder has placed a target on his back. Sometimes he feels that his presence is not needed, but what he doesn’t know is that if he wasn’t there anymore, everything would fall apart.

————————————————————————

Mikey 14 he/they: Mikey is the optimist. He is in tune to the emotions of everyone around him and tries his best to keep spirits up and smiles wide.

He has ADHD, which makes it hard for him to focus, which causes struggles during training. He always ranked last when it came to stealth, because of being unable to sit still and due to his large size he would knock objects over. He’s an extremely emotional person and when those emotions are very strong it makes it hard to control them. Anger especially is hard for him.

He’s strong. He can lift all his brothers up at the same time. But his strength has its down sides when it comes to his temper and anxiety.

Mostly Mikey is bright and cheerful, he’s emotional and sympathetic. He’s fiercely protective of the people he cares about. He’s sensitive to loud sounds (yelling, screaming etc) and hates confrontation. He wants to be everyone’s friend but if you make an enemy out of him. You will regret it. He’s strong and smart, and he can be serious when needed.

————————————————————————

Raph 15 he/they/she : Raph is the fire. The fire that won’t stop burning. He’s constantly itching to cause trouble, or fight someone. He’s not one for the rules. And is indifferent to his older brother Donnie being leader of their team, preferring to ignore his orders. He’d much rather cause trouble with his little brothers. His little brothers who look up to him, who follow him and who learn from him. As Donnie loves burning into his brain that he is a role model for them.

Raph is more of a “you only live once” guy. He wants to take risks, have fun and enjoy life. He will make crazy contests for himself and rope his brothers into them. He wants to make memories with his brothers, because he wants them to have fun as well. There’s no point in doing something fun if other people aren’t with him doing it to.

If they were able to get a job, they would be a professional photographer. Once April bought an old used phone for them, all Raph would do was take pictures. They have these pictures plastered all over their room. Their brothers smiling faces and bright eyes. These pictures cheer them up when sad or angry. The pictures also provide another use, hiding the holes and dents they've made in the walls.

Raph has very low self esteem. He feels self conscious when people mention his height, his weight (he would be considered chubby when standing next to his brothers) he feels self hatred towards himself a lot. Especially on a bad day. A lot of the times, during bad days he’ll make an enemy out of his wall. Punching it till the wall is dented and his knuckles are bloody.

Mostly Raph is friendly. He’s fond of photography and will take pictures of pretty much everything. He’s fearless and fierce towards villains. Very protective of the people he cares about. caring and sweet when he wants to be. He has bad and good days. Bad days he just needs to be alone. He’d never want to be having a bad day and take it out on his family. The last thing he wants to do is hurt them.

————————————————————————

Donnie 16 he/him: Donnie is the leader. He’s extremely intelligent and strategic. Always knowing what to do in every situation (at least that’s how it seems to his brothers) he’s smart, like really smart. He loves books on all sorts of subjects, and studying for hours on end on his small computer that April bought him.

Donnie is a hopeless romantic, and while he’s intelligent, when it comes to romance or social situations, he feels like a complete failure. He’s become infatuated with April’s nephew Casey Jones. The boy escaped an abusive home and found a friend in Donnie, only for Donnie to start feeling more towards him. But Donnie is scared that Casey will not return his affections and their friendship will be in jeopardy. So he’s keeping his crush to himself, unfortunately everyone is aware of it including Casey. Just another thing he failed at.

Donnie enjoys tinkering, taking apart tech and putting it back together in new ways. He sees potential in every object to be something different and exciting. Before he was leader, he invented things constantly. Things to help him and his family in their daily lives. No one really appreciated his inventions, so he stopped.

Sometimes he feels that he’s not living up to his full potential, that his family only sees him for his brains and nothing else. He knows he can be more, do more if he was just given a chance. He wants to do good for the world, experience normality. But he can’t, he knows that. Human beings won’t accept him, and even now him and his brothers putting their lives on the line, trying to save a world of people unbeknownst to their very existence. Never getting credit or love for being heroes. It hurts. He doesn’t know if his brothers feel the same way, but he knows that if they’re was a chance where he didn’t have to be a hero and could live normally. He would take it.

————————————————————————

Back story:

Hamato Yoshi grew up in Japan with his father, and his brother oroku saki. Yoshi spent years teasing saki, for being thinner and weaker than him. What Yoshi didn’t know was that the Hamato clan may have raised saki, but no one cared for him, not even Yoshi’s father. They were physically and mentally abusive towards saki. The two grew up learning the martial arts. Yoshi always pulled ahead and enjoyed showing off to his younger brother. His father showered him with praise. Saki was left in the dust.

As they grew older saki improved more and more, eventually reaching yoshis level and beyond. During a sparring session a young girl watched the two of them. And after they both went over to meet her. Her name was tang shen. The boys both fell in love with her, and eventually saki started to date her. This infuriated Yoshi.

Saki and Yang when we’re together for a year, and over the course of that year. The other Hamato clans abuse grew harsher. To the point where they kil!ed the cat he owned, and tortured him by burning his face. Saki begged his master to do something, anything to stop this. And his master only responded “you must be stronger than them saki” and waved him away.

Devastated and angry. He took this anger out on shen. Shen scared of saki, sought out his brother. Yoshi finding out that saki had hurt her, was furious. He fought his brother, almost killing him and saki disappeared the very next day. Yoshi and Shen started dating. They live happily for 10 years, before conceiving their first child.

While shen was pregnant saki returned, he’d been training with a master high up in the mountains. He wore the emblem of the foot. Saki kil!ed his old master, burned his childhood home down and then tracked down shen.

Yoshi only heard a scream in the distance and saw a light burning brighter. He ran to his home. Finding it burning, his wife de@d, and a note from saki saying he’d kil!ed her.

Saki disappeared once again.

And in a fragile state joined forces with an alien race, them promising to revive the foot clan for him. They dumped a strange substance called mutagen in the water supply. Which mutated animals and humans into horrifying monsters.

Saki was now known as the shredder, leader of the foot clan. And Mr oroku famed scientist to the rest of the world. He perfected the mutagen, using it on himself. Combining traits and characteristics of animals to himself, creating an indestructible beast. His mind was lost, and only one goal remained. To wipe out the Hamato clan forever.

Yoshi emigrated to the USA. He was depressed. And stayed in the apartment he owned. He barely ate or drank for several months, until the cheerful young woman across the hall broke into his apartment, and helped him to move on with his life. Her name was April O’Neil, they became friends. Yoshi wanted to explore this new country. And so he did. He traveled all across it. During his travels he found the turtles.

Leo was discovered almost getting stepped on and Yoshi saved him. The young turtle then started to follow Yoshi around. Until Yoshi decided to keep him. They traveled more together eventually finding Raph.

Leo discovered Raph choking on a piece of plastic stuck around his neck. Yoshi gently removed it. The plastic left a cut around the turtles neck. Yoshi tended to him the next few days, and he became attached. The turtle didn’t want to leave either, no matter how much Yoshi tried putting him back in the water.

While Yoshi was walking across a street, he heard a noise. He looked down and saw something in the sewers. He pushed open the grate, and up on his arm climbed two more baby turtles, covered in grime and poo water.

The turtles were strange. They were quite big and made human like sounds. They copied his movements and acted almost like human babies. He arrived back at his apartment, and by that time the turtles had gotten bigger. It was strange. He was going to turn them into a pet shop, until one spoke. He fainted and that’s how April found him.

After coming to terms with the fact that these weren’t regular turtles. He and april raised them together.

A year later, Yoshi was walking home from getting groceries. He passed an alley, and saw someone was getting robbed. He ran in to save them only to be splashed with a glowing blue substance. He dropped the groceries, and screamed as it burned his eyes. He fell on the floor, rats scurrying over his hands, one ended up biting him. He threw it off and rushed out of the alley, the groceries forgotten. People on the street pointed and stared at him. He arrived home and slammed the door, his sight was murky and dark. He cried that night, april holding him in her arms as he transformed from man to rat.

It was 1 year before people started to get suspicious of the strange noises coming from their apartment. 2 years before him and the turtles fled to the sewers, worried for the turtles safety, knowing the world wouldn’t except them. 3 years before his sight was completely gone, and ironically, he saw the turtles as his sons. Now that they were sentient beings. Acting like human toddlers. 4 years before he started training them in ninjitsu, after hearing about a scientist by the name of Mr oroku rising to fame.

12 years before they first went up to the surface, and the story truly begins :)

There was a time in Tmnt: Mississippi where splinter joined the shredder

And no I am not going to give context as to why 🤪

[tmntforeverinmyheart]

Love love loveee your turtle designs !! Curious though as to what type of painted turtle Leo is?

Thankyou so much for the question 🥰

Leo is a western painted turtle

He loves to bask, and Leo is my little eepy boy

He’s the most aquatic and very skilled in the water

I based his height off the fact that western painted turtles are second smallest species of turtle I picked, with Raph being the smallest.

And he’s the youngest, because youngest Leo supremacy💙
