They ran out of money to pay me but are looking for ways to fund future installments.

The design for each turtle fits their personality just right. But Leo's legs can use some muscles...

Ok, but he's the leader, one wouldnt think he'd be shorter than all the others

So this version casts an 'Underdog leader' kind of impression, does that work?

What?? No, when I say 'Underdog', I mean like Froddo from LOTR or Percy Jackson and those guys, and its really sort of fit Leo's character in most past incarnations

I think Leo and Don are a bit too skinny. Other than that it's great.

Wow. Canβt wait until the finished product. You are finishing it arenβt you? Either way, very different outtake on the boys. Love it. Very different. Poor Leo though. And hisβ the βbigβ brother. Thatβs sad.

Great work Ray, I love how it has a bit of a animation feel to it. Like rough animation before it goes to the ink and paint departmernt.

I wish deviantART would allow us to edit our posts. Anyway, ignore the typo.
