TMNT Redesign Challenge #5 - IRMA

Here we go for RC#5 we have IRMA, the geek? Or the most sexy girl in the TMNT canon?

From Wikipedia: Irma Langinstein

In the 1987 animated series, Irma is a young woman who works as a secretary at Channel 6. Irma, April's best friend, is one of the few humans in the series who accept the Turtles instead of seeing them as evil just because they are different from the humans. She is klutzy, tending to step on people's feet whenever she gets upset.

Irma is always dressed in a light blue turtleneck sweater, a light purple dress, yellow socks, and light brown loafers. She wears large-lensed eyeglasses with bright pink frames. She wears her hair up, with a white scrunchie holding part of it in place.

Irma is boy-crazy most of the time, even showing affection to the Shredder in one episode (though she believed it was a man in a Shredder costume at the Mardi Gras costume parade). After the show was retooled during the eighth season Irma was eventually phased out of the show after appearing briefly in two episodes.

Irma was voiced by Jennifer Darling.

She makes a brief non-speaking cameo in the 1987 universe shortly after the turtles arrive in Turtles Forever.

Yeah, seriously.

And by Oroku Saki do you mean Shredder or do you literally mean Oroku Saki as in his regular Bruce Lee looking human form?

Personally I would go after his "human" form.

Thanks for your comments and suggestions.:)

Well here is mine.

Irma as a mermaid

We've had April as a robot so why not?

I can't wait to post mine...I am hoping it will generate a lot of discussion :tcool:

MIrmaid? eh it works. I started mine but quite frankly i don't care as much about Irma as I did about Slash so whatevs. Probably post it by Friday.
I voted for Oroku Saki, cuz Metalhead looks awesome as it is. Plus without his Shredder Armor he just looked forget-able.

Not interested in Irma so I'm skipping this one. I'm sure there's something that can be done with her, but cumon, she's a human female... and the Ninja Turtles universe has about a hundred mutants and other creatures that it would be super interesting to re-design. I'd love a crack at General Traag, or Triceraton or Leatherhead or something.

Metalhead would be cool, too. I'm glad he's winning!

Oooh Irma as an Utrom interesting idea.

I was also thinking how Miss Gheist from Clueless also looked like Irma.

Ulysses, where did you get that second one? I want to see more of that artist's work...

Apparently his other TMNT fan art is pornographic, which explains how/why Ulisses found it in the first place... :tlol:

hmm, can't find my sketches...
but I'm out if lead for my pencil, and I can't afford new ones, and I'm not that good with my tablet

yes I'm THAT poor... can't afford lead for my pencil

I'm dirt poor myself, sometimes you just gotta work with what you got.

How many entries are we allowed this time? Still two? I may do a second one since I got the first one in so darn quick.
