JAC Challenge :: House Pet: Beast Mode

It's JAC Challenge time! This week, we're focusing on the mutation and growth of our usual, loving house pets into tough, over-sized beasts! This JAC is based on the following challenge idea:

House Pet :: BEAST MODE :: Your pet just ate some unknown substance and has grown to a considerable size. It's quite a beast! Illustrate your pet (or the pet you wish you had, think practical) as a beastly form of itself. RAWRRRRRR!

The Fan Element for this challenge is...Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! 

A new film is set for release in August and it is sure to bring in yet another generation of fans to the ever-growing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise. Whether you're a fan of Nickelodeon's current animated television show, shows from years passed or the comic continuity, show your love and support for such a loving, kick-ass franchise by joining in on this JAC!

JAC Challenge: House Pet - Beast Mode + TMNT
Due Date: August 18, 2014
(Two Week Challenge)

House Pet :: BEAST MODE
Ooze is popping up all over the city! The turtles are out on the streets, collecting and disposing ooze canister but it seems they've missed one and it has ended up in your home! Oh no! Your pet has gotten into the canister and mutated into a larger, beastly form of itself. Design and illustrate your house pet (or one you wish you had, think practical) as a larger, mutated animal. Consider your animal's physical attributes and personalities when designing its beast mode.  

Create-a-Character :: Cowabunga, Ninja...What?
Our four ninja brothers were created and designed as turtles, but what if they were created as different types of animals rather than the familiar, half-shelled reptiles? Choose any, or all if you wish, of the four turtles and draw them as a different type of animal. If you decide to draw all of them as a group, be sure to choose the same animal or different variations of the same animal. (Example; Birds - Hawk, Raven, Sparrow, etc). Consider each of the turtles personalities, bandanna colors and weapons when re-creating them; make them recognizable. 

Fans of the Franchise
Create a turtle-tastic fan art piece commemorating any part of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise; comics, television shows, movies. A battle between the Foot Clan and the Turtles? Chillin' during some downtime in the sewers? Whatever you want, dudes! BOOYAKASHA! And for fans of the classic...COWABUNGA!
