No offence was intended anyway
Don't know what made you make such a reaction !

I can't take offense since I'm not April and she doesn't really exist.
My reaction was intended be a bit odd because you posted an off the wall comment.

I don't know what you mean by "an off the wall comment", but any way, have a nice day

Off the wall as in, why in the world is anyone commenting on the body mass of a character.

It's all about the yellow jump suit

Nice drawing of April again.
You've drawn her in human form a lot, have you considered drawing more of her turtle self?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks. I prefer drawing human characters more than animal/mutant kinds. Which is a 180 from the things I drew when I was younger :-P

Heh Heh, I see. Still, you can draw pretty good reptilian characters too. Wouldn't mind seeing you give Mona Lisa a go some time.

Actually I used this one [link] and this [link] magazine scan. I wish I found that one you posted though. Then I wouldn't have given her two toes instead of three

Actually, I just checked the episode in question.

You did nothing wrong, Mona does have only two toes.

Strange, I wonder why the toy has three toes...

Artistic license I guess.

A classic! I've been watching a bunch of the old shows since my son got hooked on them. Good times.

It must be nice to be able to pass a classic show down to your kid
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, it's funny because my son's seen a few versions of the Turtles, including newer incarnations (like the 2007 movie), but his favourite is still the "silly turtles", as he calls them -- that is, the 1988 series. Go fig.

It is kinda strange that the younger kids are actually drawn to the older series now. I think that's why Fast Forward and Return to the Sewers skewered more towards that genre. But unfortunately, that undermined the more serious narrative that the newer series was built upon :/

We sure our Now if only I had a Macbook Pro so we could be Mac buddies too

Well, that's how they designed her for the old cartoon :-P If it were me, I would have chosen a wonderful blue jumpsuit
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
She was already redesigned a few times for the comics and 2003-2009 series... But hmm... Maybe I should

Perhaps a steampunk April O' Neil?

That's going on the to do list

You always make me dizzy when you do that...

Yes, double dizzy. It often leads to double
