In June of 2011, I got lucky and landed a dream job- Character Designer on the Nickelodeon reboot of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.  It’s one of the most exciting, yet the most challenging job I’ve ever  had. For real. It’s pretty hard. Two and a half years and a load of  designs later, I’m still there and still getting my butt kicked. The  ultra talented TMNT crew at Nick is constantly raising the bar, thus  keeping me on my toes every step of the way. To help with this, I  thought it would be a fun idea to draw the characters I was assigned in  my own style and hopefully become familiar with the subject before  moving on with the character turns. I did a couple Weekend Sketch  style character sheets for these dudes before realizing that time is of  the essence, and I really need to get moving on the actual turns.
