They’re done!! They’re finally done!! I was so excited to draw these and I’m so incredibly happy how they turned out! 

I tried some new techniques with lighting and shading and I’m really satisfied with the end result. I used gradients of their colour schemes as a colour correction layer over the base shading and I feel like it gives the shading more depth without being too much. 

Just love drawing these guys!

[ORIGINAL] [UPDATE 1] [UPDATE 2]

Spent my afternoon refining sketches and creating a sort of cheat sheet for colors. Last time I shut down my Macbook and closed Photoshop properly, all of my recent color swatches got deleted… first time that ever happened and I can’t get them back… And those swatches all happened to be for the Turtles, April and Casey.

Anyways… An art update!!! So excited to line, color and shade everything!

Also… am I the only one who kind of ships April and Cassandra?

[ORIGINAL] [UPDATE 1]

Completely redrew Mikey and April because I wasn’t too happy with their poses. They were the only ones who were folded in on themselves and not standing up like the others, and that kind of bugged me. 
I also might still change the leg positioning of Raph, because I’m still not a 100% happy with it, but getting somewhere.

Lots of adjustments still required, but I’m so happy how each and every one of these sketches turned out! 

I wanted to draw everyone’s finale looks, because I absolutely love the black/T!color combination. April and Casey joined the party because Leo’s pose was giving me such a headache I had to draw something else before getting back to him. 

I’m especially happy with the latter four where I ran out of my sketch pencil and picked up coloured pencils instead to sketch. I wish I had done the same with Raph and Mikey from the beginning, but whatever.. not gonna redo something I’m happy with. 

I will still finish the other artwork I’ve been sharing, but I gotta say, I like these ones a lot better already. Comes to show what a week of daily sketching can help improve.
