Set 1 of TMNT Sketch Cards Finished! New Project :)

heres some pics of the first set of finished TMNT Sketchcards I'm making. the first set includes: Leo, Don, Raph, Mikey, Shredder, Krang, Bebop, Rocksteady, and April. April looks kinda crappy but oh well. Now i just have to get more blank sketchcards and then i'll start set 2. On another note heres some pics of my newest project. I'm making pieces to glue to my comic/magazine holder. its too plain and i want something tmnt so i can put my comics in it so i decided to make designs and glue them to the holder. heres some pics of what ive got so far. One sides Mirage style, the other will be 80s/Archie, and the back will be 2k3-present. the front is a modified version of the nick logo and the mirage logo with an ooze canister.

all the pieces and base

pieces propped up for example

i'll post more pics when i finish the other pieces, i'll do scans then i'll glue them on and take pics of that.

Awesome Costumes!

its a little late for a halloween post but i found some great costumes I'd like to share with everybody. theyre mostly Shredder and and Rocksteady and Bebop though. I especially like the Shredder girl 3rd from the bottom and the villian group with Baxter!

Coin-A-Bunga: The TMNT Pinball Machine!

ive always loved the TMNT arcade games but ive actually never seen this before. i came across it by accident so i figured id upload the pics and show the different angles. from what ive collected this machine was made in 1991, released in June of the same year and was based on both the cartoon and the original film. it was Joe Kaminkow and Ed Cebula and was released  by DataEast. Now heres what gets me, the games artwor features the movie designs of everyone as well as some cartoon art, yet April's look is a weird cross between the two. Not to mention that she definitely has more cleavage we've all come to expect lol. Another weird thing is that instead of using new molds for decoration, the game has some random Playmates toys stuck inside of the machine. Its a cool machine overall and i would love to add it to my collection in the future but at the moment thats alot of money I dont have lol. heres some pics of various angles and the backing art.
