Description Fanart Friday for February 8, 2013. (see below how YOU can join in!).

Sooooo as you all are blatantly aware by now, I’m hopelessly addicted to Nick’s TMNT series. I drew for the past few weeks some awesome renditions of the boys and April, but it totally slipped my mind to draw the one and only Master Splinter. So I rectified this. I drew it in between my tablet experimentation sessions, just for a little break, and thankfully I finished it prior to the Friday, so I thought I should upload it I had my reservations about the design of the Nick Splinter, but it really grew on me, and especially after the first Splinter-centric episode, "I, Monster", I had a whole new respect for 2012 Splinter… they really did a beautiful job of characterizing him. With that said… the new design is actually kinda fun to draw. I kind of still threw a bit of my own flair to the design, but I hope y’all still like it anyway. I’m quite pleased with my first attempt.

With a change of eye colour and an eerie glow to his cane, then he could be a Warhammer fantasy Clan Eshen master.

This Splinter was the coolest one I have ever seen! I loved how he practically owned anyone who crossed his path ^^

This is probably my favorite incarnation of Splinter yet. He's wise without seeming holier-than-thou and his fatherly role towards the Turtles feels a lot more natural than some other versions. I'll agree, the design was a bit off putting at first, but it's grown on me. The only thing I don't get is why does his walking stick look like it's made out of kryptonite?
Cool work. Really love your attention to detail, especially on the feet and robe.

StephRatte In reply to Code-E [2013-03-16 13:55:47 +0000 UTC]

Hah hah! Thank you! I agree about the walking stick, though I think it's SUPPOSED to be jade?? I dunno! Hah hah! Thanks so much for your comment!

Code-E In reply to StephRatte [2013-03-20 00:31:56 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I guess it makes sense that it'd be jade. Its just much more fun to think its kryptonite. SOMEONE has to be prepared in case Superman goes psycho. Or maybe I'm just weird like that.

Wow, awesome job! This new Splinter is very well characterized and I like his design, though he looks a bit badger like. Just a small note, Splinter only has four fingers, but fantastic job none the less~

Thanks for the comment! I draw a lot of my cartoon characters with 5 fingers, just a force of habit I guess, hah hah! Cheers!
