Artist's Comments

One fine day I just felt like drawing sexy face shots of the turtle boys, and I devised the easiest, most half-assed way to color it. I'll do my longwinded exposition in the order I drew them. But I've arranged them so that they pair off according to the direction they're facing. 8D

...Right, so I always either make Don look girly, or waifish. orz He's even doing the "come hither" tilt of the shoulders. *SHOOTS SELF*

While Leo does the Sexily Angsting thing. He's really just being pensive. In a vaguely emo way. He's also the best ninja of the 4 cuz he's the least lit. 8Dd I do like the uh, "under-lighting" (light from below) though.

Followed by Sunshine Boy. The highlights look really blotchy, it was difficult to make the gradients smooth with contrast like black/orange. >_o Sad, cuz I thought the lineart was really fetching ;___;

Knowing my luck, Leo and Raph came out the fastest, and best looking. ~__~ Raph's so hot it's almost unfair. (To Don and Mike anyway.) The lit backgrounds are supposed to mimic city lights, and the red makes him look like he's in the red light district. 8D

I don't have a problem with canon, non-canon, straight, gay or any other of that nonsense. I have a problem with incest but as long as it isn't real life & it is drawn well I will pretend that they're not related for the sake of a job well done. Love wins

I really like that form of colouring, it's simple looking but defines the features of the guys really well =D

Raph is indeed so hot it's not fair. I'm not really complaining though :XD:

Life is what happens to screw up your plans.

Everyone lands on their arse, a lot. So dust off and keep going sissy-pants. :)

I really like the mood you gave to those portraits. It seems simple but yet I love the way you used the simple but deep colors and the way you used the light
