Description
I wanted to create the old master Splinter in a more dynamic pose. Most of the stuff i've seen, got him in a boring meditation pose, or just standing there with his cane. This dude might be old, but he can still open a can.
What you all think?

HAHA thanks! Yeah Splinter is a badass and it's too often he is portrayed as just an old guy.

You're welcome.
Maeby it's because he is quite old, but that not the only side about him. He's wise and loving and anything never dosen't stop him to prtocet his sons and friends.

Amazing! Okay this is only because you asked for it but the only critique I can think to make is that his left hand looks somewhat larger and block-shaped than his right. But I really had to hunt for that, and for some time after coming across it all I could really do was gape and go 'wow!'
I especially love the flat, angled style going on here, and how the holes in his clothes work so nicely with the leaves blowing through the air.
Really nice job. 
Cheers,
Winny

thanks dude. yeah the left hand is bigger, I was going for some solid foreshortening. the left hand is much closer and the right hand is much further away, therfor a lot smaller. thanks a bunch for checking it out, i always appreciate that.

Haha! Awesomeness! I always love it when people give Splinter some proper attention and don't merely have him standing in the background. Although I admit I've never drawn him shown his mad fighting skillz. 
Nicely done. i like the details on his robe and how you've got his tailed curled around him and out of the way.

haha thanks a bunch. yeah, splinter never really gets the same love as the other characters. That tail was kinda annoying to figure out how i was gonna draw it. took me a bit to come up with that one, but i think it works.

Haha nonono! Never take off old work! Show people how amazing you've become in such a short time! You'll gain much more respect that way. And you need to keep reminding yourself that you can make tons of progress in a short time.
