Well the upper half of them look good but those legs are weird. The feet are like really funky.

Is it my colourblindness or is Leo's mask green?

"i've probably drawn each of these guys at separate times since they appeared back in the late 80's"

Edit:
Interesting design and all, but it isn't the design for the new show. The title of this thread mislead me.

Not Nick designs, not official, not real, obvious.

Deviant art = fan art.

Fan art.

Also, if you checked out the guys work you'd see he drew his own versions of characters owned by Nick. Nothing more.

How about someone deletes this thread?

I'm a member, I'm aware (the link in my sig proves such). Still.

The reason I am as I am is because a lot of us are hanging by a thread waiting for REAL news.
These false alarms can ruin your day and fool the naive.

I really fail to see the harm in him asking if it's real or not. He found something, got excited, and asked if it was official. If this tricks anyone they obviously can't read.

On topic the design is close to what I'd expect a modern toon to look like. The legs and feet are weird but I could live with it. We could get a lot worse. I hope the final designs are at least as decent as this.

A. It's just a misleading thread title.

B. Maybe I have an attitude at times, but it's not like I think I'm better than anyone. & for the record I'm not the only one who tells people to pay attention the rules around here. Besides, I never get on your case for acting like you know everything about the film industry. Oops, did I just now?

C. Really? I mean, it's gonna be CGI supposedly, wouldn't the art reflect that style a little bit if so?

Then the title should be changed. The thread doesn't need to be deleted.

Yes and those people have been called out on it before too.

I hardly discuss film on here anymore but when I did yes I acted like I knew everything. Partly because I spend most of my time either researching or working on film. Having been through 3 years of schooling puts me ahead of most people on here in terms of film education level. May not qualify me as the master of all things film but it shows that I have at least some idea of what I'm talking about.

Many CGI series/movies start with 2D production art. Also while they said they might go CG they haven't officially stated yet that's a locked deal. I hope that isn't the case to be honest.

I don't want to argue with you I was just pointing out something I've observed over the past few months. Sometimes people don't realize how they're acting until they take a step back or someone else points it out. No offense meant by it.

It's all cool dude. I get tense on the internet, I dunno why. I swear, in real life I'm a really mellow guy. I was a bit dickish, my bad to both parties.

Regarding the CGI though, I'm pretty sure they have their hearts set on it, and have since the beginning. Then again, it's been a long time since I read that news anyways. I'm with you on not wanting it. It's not as though it won't work, but me personally I'm not a fan.

I agree on a title change... 'cause we'll be using it for the real thing someday soon.

Regardless, this is really good fan art!
A little too geometric for my taste but it's got some originality.

It's "Air Force Blue", which is a grey-blue.

Most CGI stuff does get a basis done in 2d though. Promo art, production art, sketches, etc. Most videogames, cgi movies, etc start with months upon months of 2d hand drawn or tablet drawn illustrations before even attempting to make it a 3d rendered product. I think thats what Spitfire was saying. Regardless of them having their hearts set on 3d from the start, doesn't mean they don't have a metric ****-ton of 2d illustrations to see if they like designs.

Why waste weeks on 3d rendered images on character designs or concepts if they could get some idea based in 2d within minutes? Then go from there.

And Deviant art is a majority of fury hentai drawing douchebags. Every so often, like someone mentioned, you get a Joe MAD!, or Adam Kubert, or whoever, who actually post their legit comic/cartoon work. Nicktoons actually has a lot of people on DA, I'm not entirely sure why, but I've seen more work from them than any other cartoon production group. And this guy in particular is a "real" artist, in the sense that he does comic covers for IDW, and other companies.

As for the designs, they seem fairly bland. I like Leo's face, but the piece as a whole is seeming to try too hard to be pop-art/pulp ****, and not working. The dude can draw, for sure, but that picture isn't doing him any favors in getting me excited for TMNT. His other work, such as his Godzilla, Creature from the Black lagoon, Power rangers, transformers etc, is all spectacular. So, hopefully your pissy tirade was right, and he doesn't work for Nicktoons.

Looks too similar to the 2003 series.
