I had a very bad day today, so this page was very cathartic to do.
TMNT fans know Splinter may not be a spring chicken but he's got stamina to spare, so the fact that he's been searching so hard and so long that he's out of breath should tell you something.
He's been gone the entire day, and he needs to get back
The remaining little ones need food and they're no doubt already very scared at being left alone for so long. So don't be angry at the rat master, he's planning on going out again as soon as he can to keep looking, but after a full day his hopes aren't very high.I made very sure not to use the sentence "Abandon my search" in this page. It would not have fit due to the subtext of that phrase.
And no I've never heard of perspective before 8DD

NOOO! Don't give up, Splinter! What if he's still alive? Will you just abandon him?

Poor Master in dispair....
I'm sure at this point he thinks something terrible has happened to the little turtle and is worried that will also happens to the others to abandon search.

Aw man Splinter having to search long and hurt through yeah the guy does need a break but having to worry over the four little turtle I doubt that likely. I like the picture where you show him being exhausted and the turtle are adorable

I can't give you any critiques, but I can tell you how much I love the one Turtle tot panel. They are so cute, and you can tell they're scared. Also, I really like the way you draw Master Splinter.

Oh this is not looking good! I wonder where Raphie could have gone. I really hope Splinter finds him before he has to spend the night alone.

*nods* The sewer is no place for a baby to be lost

I wonder if your watchers are worried about Raph? I guess they have everyright to be. Splinter is exhusted. He's completely worn out, both mentally and physically. And then a quickcut back to the nest to show the other three heartbeats as he calls it. Is that Donnie comforting Mikey? And from the looks on SPlinters face, he wants to cry for the missing one but he just doesn't have the energy to. And the walk back, you portrayed his sadness really well with the slooped shoulders and hungs head and the heavy tread in Splinters footsteps.

XDD Apparently some of them are. This makes me happy because it means they're connecting with the story which as you know I was afraid no-one would do
Poor Splinter is completely torn in two at this point. He wishes he could keep looking, but he can't risk losing all of the little ones. It's a horrible choice and one no-one should have to make.
And yes that's little Donny Mikey's clinging to!

I said that people would connect with the story. It's tghat good that people are actually worried for SPlinter and it's great to see fans coming together to try and help a charactor. It shows how much of our life they have touched. It doens't matter what choice he makes, it's going to cost a life. So he gives up now and saves the others or keeps looking and finds the one whioch may already be dead. As heartless as it sounds he made the right choice although there is no right choce in this situation.
I thought as much. Like I said, I can usually tell who they are just by sight. besides Donnies my fave (though you probably guessed) XD.

*Nods* Splinter is aware of the gravity of the situation, but he cannot risk something happening to the little ones he knows are still with him for one that he may NEVER find.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thats true. It's better to lose one rather then all four. Still you can understand how he feels. He wants the best outcome but those things don't always happen.

*Nods* Splinter thinks like an adult, and that's what I wanted to show in this comic.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
But he's not thinking like an animal thjough. he's thinking like a human. And he's also seeing dangers and paniking about them as well.

*nods* something that's a new concept for him.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's a new concept but he seems to be accepting it. Seeing as it is helping him more then his instincts did. Change is always good though it may seem scary at first it is something to be embraced.

The last panel is heartbreaking. You can feel the despair rolling off of him.

*pours glass of water* I'm sure you'll find him soon Splinter! *hands tuckered rat water*
Great job! I love your sewer backgrounds! (And the rat, much love for the rat!)

Aww~ Splinter needs some water I gree X'3
I'm so happy you like the sewer scenes because I find them very hard to do and I don't find them as enjoyable as the nest XDD so thank you very much

Awweeee, I love the emotion on his face! Poor Splinter. I also adore the baby turtle's in this.

I really love the last panel, I can almost feel such emotion bursting from the way you drew Splinter. =3
Amazing so far, and of course I have high hopes that young Raphel will turn up soon. ^-^

thank you very much 
Yeah I tried very hard to show just how "dark" the mood is in that panel.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I am loving this. The emotion you convey is simply perfect!
The turtle tots are too adorable as well, makes me just want to hug 'em!

*blinks, stunned.* Where could Raph be? Don't tell me he's somehow managed to go topside?! O_O
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
XD no no, Raphie didn't get topside (He can't climb those ladders yet) ...
....
...but that's an interesting concept

Some sewer pipes end outside, don't they? O_o
*is very worried for little Raphie*
