At The End I Colored It , And I Think I'm Done. This Exhausted Donnie Is Ready To Have His Brain Fried

I tried playing with some color and now he seems to be illuminated by some iridescent light.

Last week I read the fourteenth chapter of Mutant Ninja Midlife Crisis , and my god it was hard. Tears, agony, anger, panic and anxiety, all lumped together, so to speak. And every time I reread this story something moves inside me.

@mutantninjamidlifecrisis , I will never stop thanking you for giving me this.

Every single scene was a constant crescendo, and it brought so many images to mind that I literally didn't know which ones to pay attention to. But then… the Kraang came (God knows I almost had a heart attack too), or worse, Leon had to face the Kraang. Tired, destroyed, alone... who holds himself up only by some strength that still clings to life, like a trapped animal ready to bite and growl even when death is one step away from taking him. It was heartbreaking. It was heartbreaking to watch him relive the worst moments of his past. Cruel. And this bond with Donnie... The scenes are written too well. The sensations it makes me feel are too vivid.

Leon who lets go of an almost animal instinct and even goes so far as to tear Kraang Two's tentacles with his teeth? What are we talking about? And then...the scene that for some reason gave me shivers.

Leon, who doesn't feel tired... or fear... he feels anger. The pure and most toral anger he has towards those who dared to take his brother away from him. His twin. The imagination of the reunion he had constructed. His future.

I imagined it exactly like this. Still with tears in his eyes, a trickle of blood running from his forehead down his entire face, snarling with drool and alien blood. And full of rage.

I'm done.

Maybe I was a little long-winded. But I can't do anything about it. I hope you enjoy, and thanks if you got this far!

Donnie. Ispired by Mutant Ninja Midlife Crisis chapter eight and @somerandomdudelmao sketch animatic.

I imagine that the rare times Donnie ever hugged his brother, he poured out such a level of emotion that made each one unforgettable.

Plus, yes, I think Leo loves hugs from his twin more than he could ever admit.

So... here we are. Hugs!

I'm done done!

And if I can say I'm also proud of this big boy, it really filled my heart to draw him.

I hope you enjoy it too.

hi ~ 🌱

Oh hello there! 🦋

This greeting made me smile, how nice. Danke! Gracias! Merci!

Imagine that you might wonder if I'm actually still alive. But I am! Like an invisible aura that hovers silently... and that... *choking* maybe is finally cooking a little something. Who knows...

Hi, just wanted to throw in some color. Now I can return to my dark lair.

Here's a little Rock version of Neon Leon.

Well, I have too many things to say. Starting from the most obvious, I'm eternally undecided, and as a consequence I haven't been able to choose among all the versions I've made and therefore I've uploaded (almost) all of them. I hope they are to your liking.

The beckstory is quite trivial: I heard the song below and it grabbed me so much that the hand started sketching on its own, with the only goal of making Leo as cool as possible.

The result is this... I hope I managed to convey the idea of his nature a bit cheeky and impertinent, while Leo sticking his tongue out and winks.

As always hope you enjoy.

What's going on here? I have no idea. I just think I could draw this little guy forever.

@desceros I've been reading your masterpieces for a while, they accompany me in my madness, so in return I'll throw you something too.
