June's Official Technodrome Artjitsu!!

**Nturtle** · 06-02-2003, 01:26 PM

Welcome to this month's Artjitsu.

The idea is you take a photo/theme/question or whatever and RUN WITH IT. That's right. Using the topic below as your inspiration, create a work of art. Look at it as a learning experience, and do a careful study, or look at it as a fun way to express and show your individualism and go crazy with it. Stay as close to, or stray as far from the topic as you wish. Do a sketch, do it inked, do it colored, do it painted, do whatever.

A quick explanation of how Artjitsu will work:

Our drawoff will be monthly. New topics will go up every month, and you have a month to complete a piece.

This month's topic is: The TMNT in a diffrent time period!

Get to work!

Heh, this should be interesting.

*starts scheming*

*Jephael* · 06-02-2003, 03:10 PM

Now that school's out, I may actually have time to give this a try.

Nate · 06-02-2003, 03:58 PM

A different time period? Or, just at a different point in time.. I started a drawing of the TMNT saving themselves from being mutated, but that wasn't in a different time period, just 15 or so years ago.

**Nturtle** · 06-02-2003, 04:15 PM

I'm thinking more of a diffrent time period, like in the stone age or something.

Nate · 06-02-2003, 04:28 PM

OK.. I got to thinking, and I'm going to use my current picture for a fanfic/comic .. I might make one for the artjitsu to, I just don't know what of.

Deepflame · 06-03-2003, 10:13 AM

Ohh yes, this one I'm not gonna miss

**Nturtle** · 06-03-2003, 04:50 PM

Cool!

You've got the whole month to work on it, but getting an early start never did anybody any harm.

Friction X · 06-03-2003, 06:29 PM

I think I may actually be up for this one. Thank god school's out. More time for art, Turtles, and fun! Yay!

*The Stryker* · 06-03-2003, 06:51 PM

can i draw a crossover pic? its just cause i have a good idea for the different time period thing

*cqb101* · 06-04-2003, 12:20 PM

I can't wait to see this!

*The Defibrillator* · 06-04-2003, 04:47 PM

great idea Nturtle! I hope I can enter this month

*JameO* · 06-09-2003, 06:50 PM

These might be some cool art. I might even make one although it might look bad it might be fun.

LoMeinHu · 06-12-2003, 04:08 PM

Hey guys,

I'm a turtles fan, but I just stumbled onto this site last night. I've sketched out really, really quickly a pic for this month's artjitsu. I wasn't sure what to do, but I came up with a futuristic-firefighting ninja turtle. Haha, I know, it sounds cheesy. So, with my first post at the technodrome, here's my first pic:

Nate · 06-12-2003, 06:16 PM

I would absolutely love it, if it weren't a firefighting turtle.. the futuristic design is great.. I just don't like the firefighter idea. You definantly have talent though.

*The Defibrillator* · 06-12-2003, 07:26 PM

Wow that's awesome!

I see you haven't been properly welcomed yet, so Welcome to the Technodrome! I'm TMNH! I hope you stay and show us some more of you artwork!

*hands LoMeinHu a mango of welcome*

CookSux · 06-12-2003, 07:26 PM

Holy Shimoly that's pretty cool.

Friction X · 06-12-2003, 07:55 PM

Wow...can I have lessons? Pleeeeeeeeeease?

Welcome by the way. I'm Fx. What else is there to say? Buckle up and enjoy the ride!

**Nturtle** · 06-12-2003, 08:04 PM

Wow!! Cool!!!

Looks kinda crazy go awesome stormtrooperish!!! Welcome to the forums hope ya' stick around!! *gives LoMein a mango of welcome*

LoMeinHu · 06-13-2003, 11:00 AM

Hey guys,

Thanks for the warm welcome.

I like that the welcome comes with a mango. I love mangoes! As for a drawing tutorial, I'm not too good at teaching, or more specifically, I wouldn't know where to start. I basically self-taught comic art by copying Spidey comics over and over again. Once you get the basic proportions of a person down, it's only a matter of practicing the turtles' unique head shape and ovals for their shells. I like to make my turtles about the same proportions as say, Wolverine: basically short and wide. Perhaps in the future I'll TRY giving a short lesson on how I do the turtles' heads, but even I'm still learning how to draw them from all the angles. It's all about practice, and there's plenty of pics around this site to copy.

Anyways, this month's topic is really cool, so I decided to whip up another drawing. It's a bit static, but I hope you like it anyways. Oh, like my firefighter drawing, I just did it really quickly in between my hectic schedule, so I hope you guys don't mind the sketchiness. I also excited to see other ppl's drawings!
