More progress has been made! I "re-colored" some of the already re-colored sprites because I wasn't completely happy with them!

Not bad, most recoloring is good, except the polar bear one... I mean, you took away the shine of his leather jacket, which was the cool part of his outfit. Just sayin'.
 
I could try to give his jacket a different texture. It shouldn't be so hard but I need a reference. I'll look into it. thanks for your feedback!!
 
I watched the video and its getting better and better each time Gabo. I like the cartoon shading and the extra moves that you implemented of the turtles and the enemies. Can't wait to play this mod brother.
 
Very nice! Keen to play this when it's finished :)

Stage is looking cool too!

Nice touch to add graffiti etc. to the stage (it's true, he really does suck)

I know this is not supposed to stick to NES style, but images with too many colours are going to look weird with these sprites.  You also need to avoid digital images (like scanned/photos) etc.)  Like the title screen.

I'm begging you to replace those fonts too, I know you said you don't mind them but seriously default openbor fonts are ugly as hell. ;)

If you want, I can help you make something.  Or I've already made NES & TMNT style fonts for openbor you could use.
 
@Hanzo: Thank you so much!! I knew adding that cartoon shading was gonna be woth it, even when it was a real pain in the neck.

@Beastie: Thanks a lot man! I am trying not to use too many colors with the sprites, that's why I chose the cartoon shading. About the scanned images, that's "ONLY" for the title. The first time I saw that box art cover I loved it, as cheesy as it sounds it has a special place in my heart. About the fonts, I was laughing so hard dude. I'll change them but I never tried doing that before. If I could use the ones you already have I will be forever grateful. And before you get mad, I haven't used your music files yet but there's so much I wanna do I just don't know where to start so the music is kind of not a priority right now. But I will make use of them.
 
haha np,  We all have our ways we like to work.  8)  I can't start working on a mod until I have good music, sfx and font rips.  I know others will make the entire mod and add sfx etc. last.  I just like to have all my assets in place before I start working.  And it helps to motivate working on the mod, sit back and chill on the title music while I'm coding.  Or it can inspire other ideas  :D

I know you have nostalgia for that image.  I love it too.  I have searched before and can't find a good quality image of it (without stickers, price tags and other junk on it).  Otherwise I would try and make a cleaner version for you and reduce the colours etc.  I even found a blog of some guy doing HQ CD covers and he said he can't find a good version of this image either. The one you have is the best one I've seen (no extra labels etc.)  but the quality is better on other copies.  I'll have another look at it one day and see if I can do anything.

Anyhow it's not a big deal, It's fine if you keep it.  I just mentioned it because you are editing sprites etc.  I've had images like this in my mods before for title screen, only because it's my favorite image etc.  And was still using generic fonts.  But once I fixed them it just made the whole game feel better. 

About the fonts, I'll have to check/compare the TMNT NES games.  But I think I've already ripped a NES font that's the same.  Otherwise I'll rip the fonts from the NES titles. 

Do you have any preference?
 
Here's the Tournament Fighters (NES) font, ready to use in OpenBOR.

yes, lol

Tournament Fighters (NES) font is pretty cool. Does it have a shadow? If not, you should add.
 
Yeah if he liked them I was going to add shadow to another version for FONT4.  :)

There is shadowed font in the game, it looks like the arcade font.  I think I have the same/similar font ripped already.  I'll have to check.

HELL YEAH!! Good stuff! I do prefer shadowed fonts. I already added the fonts you gave me to my MOD. I still need to figure how to make them work properly. They seem to be just a "little" bigger than the ones I was using or perhaps I need to figure how to change the space in between characters, I'm pretty sure a saw that on the Manual. Also, here's a a NEW DEMO:
