PETER LAIRD'S
Pencils for 1992 Portsmouth "TurtleCon" flyer

In a curious coincidence, while cleaning up today I ran across an old sketchbook containing this pencil drawing, which is what I "cyberinked" and used for the Portsmouth "TurtleCon" flyer shown in last week's Blast #7.

Woo-Hoo! #4

More cool stuff! I saw some videotape of sample animations from the upcoming Konami TMNT videogame, mostly showing how the characters are going to move and how the "cel shader" approach they are taking is going to look (sweet -- looks almost like the new show!). There were several environments, including the Shredder's "throneroom", a subway, an alley, and some rooftops, and all of the Turtles except Don, Hun, and April, all showing wicked fighting moves. I think this game is going to be a blast -- I remember playing the original 2D Konami TMNT game and having a lot of fun with that, but this is going to be really cool.

And I just saw episode # 3 of the new show (again with voices only). Lots of fun stuff in it, lots of action, and the Turtles are getting to know their new human friend April O'Neil. More mousers, more Baxter Stockman, more Oroku Saki -- and we see Hun for the first time. He's scary! Personally, I love the way the series is developing in a serial fashion, and I think it's going to be very rewarding for viewers who stick with it.
