Raphael Tmnt

The idea was to redesign this iconic character and reimagine one of the most important icons, the bandana. TMNT has a very strong street aspect and since they are from New York, Hip-Hop fit perfectly.

The main references were B.I.G. and Raekwon, two rappers from New York, hence the idea of ​​the cap instead of the bandana. As well as the more robust shape.

Still with Raekwon, the iconic phrase "protect ya neck" from Wu-tang Clan stayed in my head, so I mixed the group's logo with the ninja turtles logo and put it on the neck.

The kanji on the helmet means "Anger" and his tattoo of a red dragon, as the character was once called.
