❤️🥰😍😘 AWWW I am so happy when you reply to my comments!!!

RotTMNT x Wakfu AWESOME🤩 LOVE that series😍 !!! Would you like to do a fanfiction or a comic about this project? Or is it just a hobby sketch? Because it's BEAUTIFUL as you designed it!

Aww thank you so much! I’m so glad you like the idea! I don’t have any fanfiction or comics planned for it at all. It was mostly just a fun design challenge that I wanted to do.

But if you or anyone else wants to use the designs or ideas for your own art/writing, I’d be happy to let you do that as long as you mention me or link it back to me (mostly because I’d love to see what anyone else does with them).

Maybe if I get inspired again, I’ll do something, but for now it was a fun idea to bring to life. I’m really happy for the positive reactions to it overall!

WOW COOL I WAITING YOUR BEAUTIFUL WORKS!!!!😍

Fanfic Work-in-Progress Guessing Game

Send me an ask with a word, if it’s in ANY of my current WIP documents I’ll answer your ask with the sentence (or maybe even the comic panel) that it appears in.

I'm so sorry for you😱 I didn't want to stress you out, I was just curious, that's all. I'M SO SORRY. 😭  😭  😭  😭

We need to talk

I recently posted my latest “The Brains and The Brawn” comic page the other day. I was feeling really awesome about it and got lots of wonderful feedback! It made me feel very happy, and I was happy to finally bring a new page to you!

Then today I got this as a comment on the page:

And beyond this being just very rude, it made me realize that I really need to have a talk with you guys.

Because this isn’t the first time I’ve gotten something to this effect. It may not always have been this rude, but I have gotten dozens of comments of this nature asking something to the effect of “when will we see the next page?”

To reiterate from a section in another post where I talked about this in brief, I really DO NOT like these kinds of asks/comments. They make me feel stressed and ashamed and pressured, which can create negative feelings around my work and make me less likely to finish them. I get that you’re excited, and that’s cool. But literally no one likes those kinds of comments.

First of all, a big reason why I have not given myself a set schedule for my Rise comics is because I did not want the pressure of a consistent deadline at a time when I don’t know if I can hold a deadline. To be perfectly candid, I’ve been recovering from a frankly very mentally stressful scenario, which I do not want to get into here.

Second of all, my recent slow-down in frequency of comics is because I’ve been trying to get my life back in order and get an in-real-life job. I’d been living overseas for the past 6 years, and coming back to my home country amidst a pandemic while also dealing with the previously mentioned mentally stressful scenario has not been easy. I’m also juggling doing my own projects with doing commissions for people, and I will of course prioritize something that I am actually paid to do.

And MOST importantly: I shouldn’t have to provide a reason for the frequency of my updates to begin with!

I’m fine with explaining a little bit about my situation, but not everyone has the means to do so. You don’t know what different people are going through. Myself and other online creatives are often creating content for free, and do not have to answer to someone asking for more content at a pace that may not be reasonable for them. Making comics is hard work! I render everything from the characters to the backgrounds myself, and that takes a lot of time! And that is in between everything going on in my daily life which you don’t see much of because you don’t have any right to!

I make my comics for myself, and I can easily block someone if all they are going to add to my day is some passive aggressive nonsense like this. Unless you are literally paying me through a commission, I do not make art for you. I make it for me.

And because a friend of mine said it so much better, here is a link to some nice guidelines on how to respond to a creative whose work you are excited to see more of without being rude about it.

To repeat, you don’t know what different people are going through. Creatives have lives outside of their online presence. Try to think before you comment and remember that you are talking to a human being, not an art-creating-machine.

WOW YOU REPLY ME WITH A VERY LITTLE COMMENT ..... GORGEOUS !!! :D I am delighted that you appreciate my compliments. WOW 6 YEARS YOU'RE SO LUCKY !!!  ;3  <3

Hi, I'm Alessandra, and I've been following you for a few months and as soon as I read your description I was amazed by the fact that you know Japanese (I'm a fan of JAPAN) and I also love comics a lot so I follow your "works" regarding the TMNT. I love that you put passion into what you do in your spare time. I LOVE and RESPECT YOU for this.Your drawings and stories are wonderful, full of feeling, adventure, action, etc. And I love the way you expressed and conveyed them by drawing and writing.

Aawww thank you so much! I’m so happy that you enjoy my work! It means a lot to hear things like this. I’m having a lot of fun making them, but it’s nice to know that others are enjoying them as well!

Also, yes! I lived in Japan for roughly 6 years, so I’m pretty knowledgeable about the language/culture!

I love Sheldon in the Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!😘

IT’S CUTE!!!! 💙❤️💜🧡🐢🐭🍕

Do you mind if I ask you about real boy Shelldon? because I love him and I want to know more. Like did he have to learn how to walk because his drone form didn't have legs, and is he super affectionate or does a lot of touch overwhelm him because the his senses are way different. Just any headcanons you have, because I love this boy.

Oh these are exciting questions! I do have a lot of ideas for Real Boy Shelldon, many of which I plan on making art or comics for. But I’ll be happy to share some of my headcanons and ideas of him!

RealBoy! Shelldon Headcannons:

Shelldon's favorite pizza is Hawaiian.

It takes him some time to get used to his new biological body. He has some trouble learning to walk and move around properly at first. Things like hunger and pain are also new to him.

For a while he gets overwhelmed by experiencing so many new sensations in general. Breathing, having a heartbeat, sounds, smells, touch, feelings – all of which he suddenly has to process in new ways other than in ones an zeros - can be a bit much at times.

He does like hugs though and often needs his family around to help ground him.

Shelldon gets along best with Mikey since they are the same "age" and maturity level. They like hanging out, playing video games, and skateboarding together. They also get into a lot of hijinks and trouble together – they are terrible influences on one another.

Mikey is excited to finally have a "little brother" (in age only, Shelldon is actually quite tall).

Shelldon is more than happy to give his immediate "older brother" a ride on his shoulders.

Shelldon gets into surfing.

He loves experimenting with food and creating weird food combinations. Pizza in a blender? Yup! All the random pizza toppings found in the '87 show? Of course! Hot sauce on ice cream? Delicious!

He often goes on missions with Raph, but gets distracted by things really easily and gets caught up in doing his own stuff, so most of the time they're really unproductive.

He and Donnie bond over Jupiter Jim films and their love of Atomic Lass.

Regarding his drone parts:

He still has his rotors to fly with in the back of his shell.

Despite having a soft shell, Shelldon likes keeping his back unobstructed so that he can use his rotors at anytime. He'll only wear hoodies or loose clothing when he feels comfortable and safe.

His robotic eye has night-vision, and can see outside the normal color spectrum like UV and infrared.

He can communicate with computers a bit. There is a notch in the back of his head that can be used to connect wires to for him to communicate with computers or provide access to the computer side of his brain.

He can occasionally pick up radio signals as well (which can also be a bit overwhelming at times).

He can also suffer from small technological issues like computer viruses and short-circuits (but it'd mostly just make him sleepy and a bit loopy since he still has his bio-brain to compensate).

The mutation managed to fit together his bio-body with his computer body pretty effectively, so he doesn't even need to "recharge" with electricity, and can just use his normal body energy (from food and such) to fuel his technological bits.

He thus has to eat a lot.

Overall, Shelldon is pretty open to going with the flow and trying new things, there's lots of new stuff to do now that he is alive.

I’d like to thank you for this question, anon! I’ve been having a bit of a creative block lately. This helped flex my artistic muscles and get the juices flowing!

dianounais I agree with you very much! I always wished Mikey was more than the prankster of the group and not considered the turtle who has all the looks and characteristics of a classic fun teen. Don't break me guys I like you Mikey that way he's always been my favorite antripomorph animal ... after Usagi Yojimbo. But as you wrote, I always thought that he could be so much more (as if in the future he could become a great teacher like Splinter) and become mature, responsible but keep his positivity and support which helps a lot has to keep his more united and cheerful family. Sorry jade and dianounais I was too long and detailed especially he has to write at this time of the evening eh eh eh. But I hope you both appreciate my sincere opinion. Good night and HAPPY DAY for tomorrow !!!

Ok your Once human au is so so cool, I love the designs and the new weapons AND I love that you made mikey the leader!!! My boy doesnt often get the character development he deserves and is often just the "funny guy" but like hes more than that!!! So thanks for giving him an important role!!! Its really cool!! Also splinter looks like the kind of dad every body wants akdbsjfkejfjj anyway have a nice day!

aahahowaoa!!! Thank youuuuuu! I’m really glad you like them!!!

I have a lot planned for Mikey! I wanted to take other versions of Mikey’s personality and use stuff like their positivity and their moral compass as a driving force for plot! I think that there’s a lot of potential in his character to be leader-like, it’s just never used as such.

Similarly with Splinter, I took a lot of the aspects of other iterations’ Splinters and took the parts I like to make my own ultimate dad-Splinter!

Thank you so much and I hope you have a wonderful day, too!

PLEASE SAVE ROTTMNT !!!!! 😭😭😭😭🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I WANT TO SEE ALL EPISODES AND ALL SEASONS (in my language of course) because IT'S FUN, CUTE AND EMOTIONAL, FULL OF STORIES and I want to know more and more details about how these characters are and their story in a new version, which I follow since I was little!!!<3 <3 <3 <3

I have seen every single TMNT TV series and movie and I will never stop seeing and reviewing them all .... and will be in the future if you save Rise of the Teenage mutant Ninja Turtles.<3 <3 <3 <3

#SaveROTTMNT Week 3

Wednesday: Talk about your experience when you first started watching rottmnt. Why did you start watching? When did you discover it? What stood out to you when you started that made it clear Rise is a great show?

Friday: Fanart/Fanfic day. Write fics, draw, and post, tagging the accounts and using the hashtags

Saturday: if (when) rise of the tmnt comes back, what type of episodes would you like to see? Discuss possible future episodes or team-ups!

Sunday: at 5pm est we’re trying to get #continuerottmnt trending. Try to avoid using that tag in the meantime so we get the spike of activity we need!! On Sunday tag the accounts, use the tag, talk about your love for rise, how it deserves better, etc.

Will be posting more info about trends later- if you have any questions, let us know!!
