Description

Here’s a new print for C2E2 as a companion piece to the Raphael I posted earlier: Cool But Rude [Redux]

I really felt like drawing Slash again, especially based more on the original toy, but making him a bit creepier and more unhinged.  This Slash isn’t out looking for his binky… he’s out for blood.

Ha!  Yeah, must have been a double-dose of Mutagen.

Hate to think what the other three look like!  Sheesh!

Ha, ha!  Actually, this is Slash, not one of the four main Turtles--he was a snapping turtle to begin with, so he's going to look more jacked by default.

Ha, ha!  Thanks!  I always thought of Slash as the "Venom" of the Ninja Turtles, so I wanted to make him look menacing and unhinged.

Looks like a Ninja Turtle/Skaarj (from Unreal) crossover

Oh, really?  I never played Unreal, but I'll have to look those guys up.  Sounds interesting!

I remember your other drawing of Slash! He looks a lot nastier here

Ha!  Yeah, the last one was more of a neutral/just-leave-me-alone type character, but this one is definitely out for some mayhem. I wanted to keep his design and attitude closer to the old toy line!  He was always one of my favorites.

Heh, yeah it's easy to see why. I sadly don't know a ton about him but definitely does seem far more mutated than the other characters

Yeah, he's pretty cool!  For the original toy line, he was basically just Shredder's answer to the turtles--a ninja turtle of his own!  He was big, with an evil grin on his face, which I always thought was cool!  Unfortunately, in the cartoon show, they made him a total moron, and changed his design, so I didn't really like how they portrayed him.  I always saw him more like the "Venom" to the Ninja Turtles, so I always like to draw him as more cunning and/or crazy than brutish. Luckily, in the new cartoon, they portrayed him exactly as I wanted them to--cunning, manipulative, and unstoppable.  But they made his design even worse than the original cartoon.  Can't win!

Hah, yeah sounds like they had trouble trying to make him work out. Didn't stop him from being really neat from a concept standpoint though!

Totally!  I mean, they nailed him story-wise, but I just hated his design.  He looked like a big, dopey stegosaurus.  I wish he had looked more like the original toy, or his current comic appearance.  I think he actually was in the old Archie comics for TMNT, too, but I never read those.  They seemed even sillier than the cartoon show.

Yeah I haven't read or seen any TMNT stuff in forever. Maybe I should change that sometime, huh?

Ha, ha!  Not a bad idea! I need to read more of the original comic myself.  I had one of their collected volumes as a kid (actually, it made up the bulk of what they used for the original 1990 movie plot), but I never got the other volumes.  I should change that! Maybe after I check that out, I can catch up with the current comic...
