Description
Another addition to my Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series.This is my version of the villain Slash. I like the idea of the character being a mindless thug. I also figure any pet turtle of Bebop and Rocksteady's would suffer quite a lot of abuse, thus all of the scars and notches.

haha. Thanks! I think you are the first person that noticed that. I was pretty proud of that addition.

And well you should be. It's weird. I had just seen a bit on TV about an alligator snapping turtle and it's weirdo tongue thing. Perhaps that's why it jumped out at me in your drawing. Whatever the case, it was a great touch.

Yeah. I think he really works best as a snapping turtle. Not some sort of alien.

haha. Yeah. In the form of an air freshener (I've heard that snapping turtles are supposed to be really stinky).

Hey! Thanks for the heads up. That's greatly appreciated.
For once it's actually on an English language site too. Usually when that happens it's in Russian or something, and I have no idea where to even leave a comment.

I just noticed the snapping turtle "lure" style worm tongue. Cool addition.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
haha. Yeah. I was wondering when someone was going to notice that. I think most people just thought that I don't know how to draw a tongue.

Amazing take on the character btw

Thank you very much. I was going for something darker than the turtles themselves, but still a bit cartoonish.

Holy crap! Slash! I used to love this guy! I remember not liking him animated though...But this rendition is really great!

To be honest, I mostly just liked the toy. I don't even really remember the cartoon or comic versions that much.

real nasta lookin'! good job man! I still have the action figure)

Awww man. I wish I still had some of these old action figures. I was TERRIBLE to my toys though. Most of them met their fate at the head of a hammer, or the explosive end of a firecracker.

I love how you take my favorite characters from my childhood and make them more awesome. You are like the opposite of Michael Bay.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's been widely agreed that your comment was the "best compliment ever". Do you mind if I use the "Like, the opposite of Michael Bay" for the subtitle on my blog?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
HAHA! Go right ahead, glad I could give you the best compliment better, and even more glad you're not a Bay-apologist.

no no no. I might have been prior to Transformers 2, but that was definitely the gigantic pile of shit that broke the camel's back.

Well done, but naaww..
while it was cute for the cartoon to make Slash a moron .. his toy is cool and he;s fun to fight in the games ::
the penultimate SLASH version is that of the comics.
In TMNTA he was allied and manipulated by Krang. The only reason he was a villain.
A tragic character at that who's entire world .. once filled with beautiful vegetation and palm trees only to be decimated by loggers. Thus his love for Binky .. or "Palm Trees".
..Slash was a very angry , young Turtle ..but also a hardened warrior. Also noble and honorable.
Ultimately he sacrificed himself to save his friends.. the Turtles from destruction at the forces of Maligna as her ship was careening towards the sun. He died saving their lives and and referred to them as his friends.
Geeky , maybe .. but i stand by that.
He was a well processed and thought out character.
So sorry.. if you are lookin to me to see a villain here, you ain't gona get that.
I will look at this beautiful rendering of him as a hard core Turtle Warrior.
Those you disagree..
Bite me..

See, that's one of my problems with the Mirage comics and aspects of the cartoon- I can't get into alien storylines. I think mutant animals and alternate dimensions are quite weird enough. I also don't understand why alien races would just look like mutated versions of earth animals. When it's alternate dimensions than it can make sense, cause different animals took different evolutionary pathways. (Yes. I have put way too much thought into this).
If I were to personally write Slash I'd probably incorporate aspects of both. Make it so he was Bebop and Rocksteady's pet, but they abused him horribly as sort of a substitute for the TMNT. Then Shredder mutated him to send him in as a spy to the turtles, but between all of the abuse and Shredder's manipulation Slash's mind is fried and he's more like one of those overly abused fighting dogs. Maybe he feels some sort of deep down kinship with the turtles that they could develop into a friendship to calm him down, but initially I see him more as a rage filled wild card.

-->> ..sounds like a fun take. i like that, man.
I believe Murphy and Brown's approach was for the TMTNAs not only to deviate away from the cartoon, but to have it mature as it's audience did.
Even Bebop and Rocksteady gained some weird sense of being as the stories progressed. I guess i found the comics approach to Slash just a bit touching.
I agree tho' .. at one point in the TMNTAs there was just so many damn aliens.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, I definitely appreciate that effort to make the turtles mature a bit, especially considering that the original audience is well into their 20s or 30s now. haha. Doesn't that make you feel old?

Very creepy take on him, I like it a lot! Nice ref to Binky there :-P
I miss this toy, it was one of my faves as a kid.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks man! Happy to hear it. I was definitely going for a more brutal version of him (but with Binky in there to make it a little silly).
Yeah. It was one of my favorites too.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I remember when I was a kid I liked how they did him in the comics over how they did it in the cartoon, I think it used to piss me off, but I was a little kid, shit like that was taken PERSONAL, lol
Seriously can't wait to see whatever TMNT character you take on next!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
haha. I still take stuff like that personally. I can't even watch that one animated Batman show where The Riddler looked like Marilyn Manson. I just get angry if I even see screenshots.
Up next is Casey Jones. I'm about half way done with it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
lol yeah, that one was very "ehhh", I'd rather just crack out the Justice League DVDs again, lol.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Amen. or the old Fox animated series.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
They will never be able to make a better Batman series than that. No matter how hard they try, just toss em that first Mr Freeze episode and its CASE CLOSED.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well not to mention they STILL use all those same voice actors and stuff in modern Batman stories (arkham asylum).
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh yeah, no matter what when I read Batman comics, those are the voices I hear in my head, especially Batman and Joker. And now that they've announced the sequel to Arkham Asylum, we'll get to hear em again! Arkham Asylum was just wicked overall, great writing, was not expecting to get into Batman's head, but what do you expect with Paul Dini writing it!
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
haha. You know. I don't even know if I ever even saw an episode of the show with Slash in it. When I was a kid I wasn't allowed to watch TV much, so I made up my own stories for a lot of the characters.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
haha. Yeah. Well Binky of sorts, I wanted it to be a palm tree air fresheners, cause snapping turtles apparently smell terrible.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
NICE! I really like his shell. It reminds me of those alligator snapping turtles, which are rather badass. I'm assuming the tree freshener around his neck is because he's stinky. Which makes sense, because my fifth grade class had a pet turtle, and it smelled like old salami.
