I wonder if Baxter shoots Mousers out of his robot suit, didn't someone say that was said back at the preview event?

I seem to recall reading something of that nature.

Yes, and it just seemed odd to me because we never see what he does exactly for a living. We see him trying to break into a building in a crapy robotic outfit but nothing is really explained.
He goes back to work for revenge at one point but it's never stated what his place of employment was. It looked like your every day cubicle office to me.

Anyway I enjoy these storyboards and really wish this show was animated and not cg clay fighters looking stuff, but what can ya do.

Perhaps this isn't Baxter's first episode, but his second appearance, so his character is better introduced in a prior ep. Not that this is even an episode anyway.

I've no idea but the turtles act like they've never met him before in this.

Just be patient... I'm getting sorely tempted to start drawing what Splinter's gonna be, though... That I'm losing patience on!
Thanks! You are voice of the wisdom with that point!!!!

I don't think you understand me. I wasn't saying that this show will be simplistic and not dark, you know. Someone said that this show is made with kids in mind, so it will probably be simplistic. I just wanted to say that kids are not as stupid as people think they are, and actually cán understand deeper meanings and you don't have to stupify shows made for children.

You're right. I re-read your post. You were complaining that we were really hard to please, and that as far as the simplicity goes, we should remember this is being made with children in mind.
I thought you meant that I (and maybe other people) wanted it less simplistic, but then children wouldn't really get it or it wouldn't be right for children to watch. After that I said: Kids aren't as stupid as many people think they are, they can understand less simplistic subjects or storylines.

All I know is you're reading way too far into it... I'm not suggesting kids are dumb (and clearly you agree seeing how you keep repeating yourself in every post), but rather that for their attention to be kept, it's easier to keep some of the dialogue simple. I myself think "We did it!" is far better than "By the gods & graces of this limitless universe, I think that this dark scenario in which we've recklessly endeavored upon the stage of life has finally reached its end...".

Ya feel me?

Powder, I love the line you added. It was hilarious!

I'll have to agree that kids are not stupid. It's just we don't want things to be complicated for them or in that case, inappropriate. "We did it!" is a better line, but I'd sure like to hear them say, "Alright. Good work guys!" after that.

Besides this talk on the quality of the show, 6 words: I WANT TO SEE MORE STORYBOARDS!

No, Luzmagica. Leonardo would not say that. Thor would. Still, I found it very funny.

This is for Powder: I don't like your avatar that much. Raph is nothing like Che Guevara. Sorry. I liked it when you had one of your turtle pictures as your avatar.

Fair points but, again, isn't the nature of this pilot such that it might never see the light of day as an actual episode?

Um, I think that clicking on it to make it full-sized is what I did, but I was running short on time at the library (really, REALLY short on time (PLUS which, my eyes were kinda bothering me)), so I really didn't have the time to look at him closer. Which I WILL do shortly today.

EDIT: Well, I rechecked that one storyboard with the closeups of Baxter in it (this one: [...] ), and he does, indeed, have a mustache. (Not surprising, really, as he had one in Volume One of the Mirage comics series.)

ANOTHER thing that I noticed, upon looking at these again, and specifically the FIRST of these ([...]) is that if you look really closely at their feet (which honestly look like HOOVES to me, rather than the Turtles feet that we've long been used to)) in the first three panels, if you look really, REALLY closely, you can see the three toes that they'll each have. (STILL not liking that, but I guess that I'll slowly get USED to it, I guess. Still NOT gonna DRAW them with three toes when I draw them, though, but that's just me.)
