Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Tribute



Malcolm Sutherland's awesome animated tribute to the turtles absolutely rocked my world, and if you're left wondering just how in the hell this has anything to with the series, here's why: Malcom Sutherland paid tribute to the original, black and white comics prior to the series taking off and becoming the classic cartoon. And I have to say, major props to him for managing to translate that visual look into an animated style. As Sutherland put it:

'A tribute to the Ninja Turtles.. ever since I read the original black and white comics as a kid I have been a fan. In TMNT Vol. 1 by Mirage Studios they frequently had guest artists and almost every comic was a totally different style. Those books are so beautiful, and are so intense and full of magic that they left a deep mark on me. Anyway, I always wanted to do a TMNT comic myself, but in the meantime here is a fan animation instead. I know its super nerdy to make fan videos but I don't care, making this was like my 10 year old dreams come true. '
