Blast from the Past #291: Michelangelo swinging 'chuks pin-up drawing

Here's one of my pin-up drawings, this one from 1986. It's another one from the days when I inked with a real brush and bottled ink.



I like the way that Michelangelo is swinging his nuchaku with apparent wild abandon here. -- PL

Blast from the Past #181: Laird/Lawson Turtle sketch

I have this troubling feeling that I've posted this one before... but I did a quick search on this blog and couldn't find it. So maybe I'm just confusing it with another drawing. In any event, if it is a repost, my apologies.



This is a drawing that, very likely, I did while bored at a convention. Jim Lawson inked it in his style of the day (this was back in 1986), which, if memory serves, involved use of the famous Tombow roller-ball pen (a tool much beloved of Mirage artists of that time). -- PL

Blast from the Past #39 repost: Michelangelo's new costume

This is one more of the proposed redesigns for the unfilmed fourth live-action TMNT movie. Here we gave Mike a more “street” look because his new mutation gave him the ability to project a human appearance onto his turtle features, allowing him to interact freely with humans.



This reminds me a little of an even earlier idea Kevin and I toyed with for the TMNT comics. We had this (admittedly more than a bit goofy) plan to have Donatello make "human disguises" which the Turtles could wear that would allow them to move around undetected in public. These disguises would not have survived really close examination, though... for example, to accommodate the Turtles' three-fingered hands, they would wear special latex gloves which from a distance would look like human five-fingered hands, but actually had the index finger and middle finger fused into one, and the other two fingers also fused together in this way. I think I have a quick sketch of this somewhere, but I haven't seen it in a while. -- PL
