Ok so, first of all  bad guys  ≠ psychopaths

Second, this is my design for Usagi

And yes, if someone wants to use it for fanarts, fanfics, rollplay, references, etc. You can do it¡

Ok so today I’m going to explain my train of thought when I was dessining Usagi B) Leaving aside the part in which I look for references, watched episodes from the series, studied the character, and Rottmnt’s drawing style. I finally arriving at a base design for usagi that I really liked ❤❤❤. 

 Design 1: it was the first one I did with the idea of ​​"letting go" and seeing what came out. I really liked the result! So I started to have fun doing details to his body, such as freckles, a damaged ear, marks on the body (inspired by those that boys have) and a scar that made him look rough. However wasn’t rrealy into it so discarded it.

 Design 2: I did this with the idea of ​​"what would usagi wear as a normal yokai teenager amd not a rabbit from aanothr dimention?“ This is the result, the scarf was the detail that I liked the most, I did it with the purpose that he would use it in his missions just like the boys use their masks. This design was about to remain, but character design rule, never stay with the first thing you do. 

 Design 3: it was my favorite (y el de mis amigos, gracias Pao tqm) with this design I wanted to make usagi as similar/close as possible to its original concept but still feel the style of rottmnt. 

 To be honest I didn’t have to much faith xd (I mean the previous designs of usagi are not very flattering (?) I felt that I had to do plastic surgery and be a fashion designer at the same time lol. First I had to remove the scarf since although I liked it the idea, but for this new version was too over loaded :’((( So instead of that I decided to tear up his shirt/yukata(? since I thought that this could be because thanks to a nexus battle, a fight or that even big mama could have ripped it off at the time of kidnap him. It was enough for me to like him and to make the official version in the end. ✨✨✨ 

 Bonus, the ear piercing. The only reason I didn’t put it in the final version is: 

 1.- I forget it lmao 

 2.- he did it with Leo. 

 I have a headcannon that Usagi went through difficult things on his life that forced him to grow up, to become an adult at only 16. For those reasons, he does not allow himself to enjoy things that a normal teenager would do. He wasn’t really aware of everything he was forbidding himself until he met Leo. He was the one who helped him (in his own style) to learn to have fun, to communicate feelings and not repress them, to do things for a boy of his age. And yep, along the way, usagi also helped Leo grow, like noticing Leo’s self-esteem issues, and making him understand that he is much more than a magic sword, trusting in his leadership guts, etc. The piercing was that small gesture for usagi that symbolizes his union with Leo and also understand the importance of sometimes living and letting go. 

Happy 4th Anniversary RotTMNT!!!
