Just a shy Tumblr user who likes to draw!
(I don't use Tumblr too often, so sorry if I respond late or don't respond at
all! Still a bit new to using the platform!)
(I also sometimes write positive comments on other people's ROTTMNT fan art, but I don't usually use tumblr, once again lol and sometimes doesn't respond for weeks and months)
'So evil ones should get a little more' by @nerdyboiyeet is INCREDIBLE AS WELL!!! (Why is there so much good fanfiction in the ROTTMNT fandom??? This is why I love this fandom so much.) I really loved the message of the whole fanfic and how canonically the characters felt overall with their personalities and the writing and feelings. Multiple times, I felt like crying because it was so sad, but so good XD. It was just a straight-up masterpiece, and I loved every little bit of it! (Spoilers: Krang Three's and Leo's friendship was also fun to read!)
Random inspiration made me take inspiration from the original creator's drawing of Leo holding the Shredder Armor piece, so HERE IT IS! (The original creator's drawing is super good, you should check it out!!! I really loved the concept of the drawing, too!!! I just borrowed the idea and made Leo do a different pose with the armor piece, and made it ROTTMNT movie style. And yes, I loved the flashy mask tails flying around, so I decided to just yeet the idea from the OG, but I think I made it basically an exact replica... oops. Sorry, nerdyboiyeet! It's just that you have too many good ideas- sorry again if you want me to delete the post, just message me! I'll try to respond at the fastest time I can! I just really love your fanfic and concept art and wanted to show my appreciation! YOU ARE AN AMAZING FANFIC WRITER OHMIGOSH I LOVE ALL YOUR FANFICS ESPECIALLY THE NEW ONE CALLED 'The lights in your eyes fade and life flashes by' I am waiting for new updates to this day!)
(So, I know I said that I won't be posting anymore fan art of ROTTMNT fanfics I love, but I'm pretty sure this is going to be the last one I ever post... maybe. Don't count on it. still very shy and don't wanna interact with people and want to work on art progress alone haha)
Reblog to let new writers or artists know it's okay to make mistakes and you don't need to let that hold you back from doing what you enjoy, by sharing some mistakes you've made along the way and what you've learned from them 💚
Here I go!
1. I misspelled 'depictions' as 'depections' twice. Autocorrect automatically changed it to 'depections' every time I spelled it correctly afterwards. I didn't catch it right away and later had months worth of work to backtrack and fix. I learned a lot of mistakes slip past when I'm proof-reading, so now I use a spell check program before posting my fanfics online. And I learned autocorrect isn't for me.
2. I used to take my time writing out my first draft, trying to make it look like the final draft by adding details, stopping to look up synonyms, and making sure conversations flowed nicely. But taking my time on the first draft sometimes meant the story I'm trying to write flies out of my head like a little birdie that never returns 🐦 I learned it's ok for the first draft to be sloppy, messy, and lack details, as long as the main idea is put out on paper, I can clean it up and add more details later, during the editing.
This is my first time starting a tag game, so hopefully I'm doing this right 🙂 Tag some artists and/or writers you know! (no pressure oc, and anyone can feel free to join, you don't need to be tagged! 😃):
Thanks for the tag and game @shaotie! This looks like a good one! :DDD
Oh mistakes mistakes… where do I start hehe? Let’s see here…
Soooo let’s just say that I often get writers block. Like, REALLY often. I can remember kind of a specific time was when we moved and I kinda just felt stuck in a lot of aspects of life, feeling zero motivation to write even though I loved it so much. Also if something wasn’t perfect it bugged me immensely and I’d often stop writing and question my overall abilities. Eventually I learned that sometimes all I needed to do to get my inspiration back was to just START—even if it was struggling to grind out a singular paragraph. Most of the time all it took was just forcing myself to put something down and then creativity took over and I was able to write a lot more! Point is that you’ll never know unless you try. It might bad or it might be good once it exists, but it won’t be anything if it never exists. Besides you can always refine it later! Just keep writing, and it can be good later. This applies to a lot of things actually, how you will never be great at anything if you never practice and push through that awkward phase. I cringe at some of my old writings hehe, but without them I would’ve never gotten to where I am today <333

Heyy! I'm somehow alive (albeit tired, but alive!), though I haven't been active on the platform lately because of art studies and generally just life, haha! :D
Thanks for always tagging me, @abbielauren2024! It really makes my day!!! <3
Well, ladies and gents, here comes a day I never expected! But it's okay- it's bittersweet!
I gotta go. Not in a bad way! I'm being called to do something important, to focus on more important things, but to do so I gotta give up some of things as well!
It's been an honor making art and meeting everyone, making stories and drawing was always so much fun and I met so many amazing people during it!
To my lovely, incredible mutuals;
@shaotie I've always admired your stories and love the effort and thought put into them, I hope you keep up your incredible work and talent!
@cimmerian1275 You art is always INCREDIBLE. And I love the effort and dedication that goes into it and how beautiful it always is!
@cursedcatchild I always loved both your art and stories, they're always amazing and I love how bubbly and cute your style is!
@darkpolicepsycho While we never really interacted much, I always loved your art style and how skilled you are! I hope you continue to hone your craft and make even more amazing pieces!
@enchantix-warrior I always loved seeing your comments and appreciated the way you always looked out for me! I'm taking that advice now and focusing on something much more important!
@katiemaycreate Your art is so beautiful! I love the dedication to your comics and artworks and always enjoyed seeing them!!!
@lunacat964 Luna. You are an INCREDIBLE artist and were always so kind to me and made me such lovely art, I'll always love and appreciate all of it and never forget all the kindness and wonderful things you created for me!!
@reclusive-raven I love both your art and stories!! They were always so incredible and had so much thought and effort put into them! I always admired your work!
@samxluna1220 I always, always appreciated the fic you wrote based on one of mine and hope you continue to do what you enjoy and create!!!
@xavitron883 You were one of my first real mutals and (even though I'm terrible at keeping contact/replying--) I always appreciated you for that and for all the fandoms and cool things you created and introduced me to! I hope you continue with your amazing art!!
To the non-mutuals (or mutuals I didn't really interact with much! 😅) who I still admired!!
All of you are incredibly talented and create such amazing art, stories, books, animations, among many other things!! I truly looked up to so many of you (and my mutuals!) for being such incredibly talented artists and writers! I hope you continue to work and do what you love!!
May the Lord God bless all of you and allow us all to meet in the next life! Keep the Trinity close to your heart and remember that God can save anyone!!
I love you all and wish all of you a happy and complete life!!!
I'M GOING TO MISS YOU SO MUCH!!! TYSM FOR LITERALLY EVERYTHING AND FOR MAKING UP THE MAJORITY OF MY TUMBLR/SOCIAL MEDIA LIFE!!! YOU ARE AN INSANELY KIND AND INCREDIBLE PERSON OHMIGOSH I HOPE YOU ARE HAPPY ALL THE DAYS OF YOUR LIFE!!!!! <3333333
I don't really know how the quiz result relates to being in a tv show but I'll take it haha also totally used Google translate for the descriptor words but I would say they're accurate if translate did me right lmao
I'll tag some peeps let me see here
@luca897xp @akicalaraika @lunar-lair @sc6rl3t @oopsallturtles if you want to!
Thanks for the tag!! These are so fun… what-what?? Surprise hero/gray villain?? Normally I’m like the mom of the group… but tbh I’m pretty close to this rn! Ig this is accurate if I finally broke and shut down to everyone hehehehe (breaking?? Me?? Who what pffft not gonna happen like what)… okay now I’m seeing it as pretty darn accurate… this’ll be an interesting tv show XD
Also I love that your mbti is on here! So fun!
I’ll tag @shaotie @sc6rl3t @lunacat964 @conartist170 @ninjagirl0913 @writingravencove @katiemaycreate @nyaboshibrainrot and anyone else who would like to join! No pressure! ^^
Thanks once more for tagging me!!! Just gonna do the quiz instead of the image thingamijig--
(... wow this is my result, huh- I didn't expect this because I was grown in a happy family???? Ok welll--)
**
Your Result:
Oh the horrors ™
Oh gosh, where to start You have MAJOR baggage Mommy/daddy issues GALORE, so much trauma to fill a whole season You cry every time you get hugged Oh and you're probably the most on screen abused character, sorry! Tumblr would defend you with their LIFE and I can't even mention the fanfics, the fandom is dividend between wanting to comfort you or to explore your trauma so much it would make a therapist cry
I've seen a few moots doing this and it looked fun!
* Make this picrew of yourself
* Take this uquiz (How Fandom Would See You If You Were A Fictional Character)
...yeah that seems about right 😅🫠
Not sure who's done this already so tagging the besties @thetumblingmoron @redheadsramblings @woundedsoul12 @the-bear-and-his-sunbird @aurorabiggs @thepalehorsevictoria @kiir-do-faal-rahhe and anyone else who would like to play!
Honestly yeah 💀 I would be. “It seemed like a good idea…” my catchphrase fr fr
Uh, tags…
@truths33k3r4 @lemonandtheart @aura-of-chaos @alex-the-creatures @kc-anderson and everybody else who wants to play cause this is actually pretty fun :]
Thanks for the tag, @indieyuugure! I got a little bit of spare time, so I did the little quiz and the picrew. :)
Yeah… yeah that’s me. 🤣 I have been called the mom of the group many a time, and honestly, it’s pretty spot on. 😅 I carry snacks and meds in my purse, bandages, and am always keeping watch of the group when we’re out in public. (Telling everyone to be quieter if we’re getting loud in a public space, keeping the adrenaline junkies from flinging themselves into sitches they can’t get out of, and of course keeping my head on a constant swivel as we walk around town after dark.)… Yeup. My job to keep these knuckleheads in line and breathing. 😅
I’ve done this one before, but I wanted to do it again and see whether it was the same!
Just for funsies, I Jason Todd-ified Crow’s hair, and I added black lipstick. I love black lipstick in theory but I don’t know that I’d like it practice, so I’m living vicariously.
I’ll tag @shaotie @writingravencove @sc6rl3t @lunacat964 @conartist170 @chaoscauserrrr @cursedcatchild @ninjagirl0913 and any other moots that want to join! No pressure! ^^
Thanks for the tag, Abbie! I'll just post my result that I copy pasted, also this is really fun and I always appreciate it when you tag me!!! :)

Last Song: Uuuuh "Let You Down" by Cheapshot is playing as I'm typing this and its a BANGER! (Also including "Go Hard" by Joey Valence and Brae because the "No music" part repeats in my head any time there is silence XD)
Last Book: Oh no, this is where I start to get called out... The last book I've read would have to be the Rise comic book series (its hard to motivate myself to start a new book series....)
Last Movie: ...The Rottmnt movie... (I uh... I've been watching a lot of YouTube...?)
Last Show: .........The Rottmnt series (Listen-)
Sweet, Savory, or spicy: Hmmmm... it more depends on each food than the flavors themselves... For instance, I would say Savory of the three is my preference but BANANA MILKSHAKES / SMOOTHIES. The less sweet the better but also they're not really savory... so...
Current obsession: Rottmnt and... yeah that's about it when it comes to obsession... But if I switch this to "Special interests" we're going to include playing cards, Banana Milkshake/Smoothies, Harvest moon, GB Patch games, and birds :)
Last search: Its how to spell "hypnotising..." That checks out XD

Last book: excluding school readings/textbooks? Heritage by Gregory Heel I think
Last movie: ironically Rottmnt bc I showed it to a friend a couple weeks ago 🤣
Last show: NCIS (the original one)
Sweet/Savory/Spicy: savory for SURE I can't handle sweet things anymore and I also have zero spice tolerance so there's really only one possible answer. I love things with lots of flavors, so long as they're flavors that I like
Current Obsession: still Rottmnt lmao, has been for the past 4-5 years
Last search: the author of Heritage since I don't have the book on my lmao
Looking forward to: thanksgiving break! I'm spending it with one of my besties this year and I'm stoked to see her again

Oh my gosh! Thanks so much for the tag, Nerdy! ٩(^ᗜ^ )و ´-
Lately, life has been really busy, but I wanted to try doing this, so I really appreciate you tagging me, even if I'm not too active online!
Last Song: 'With Me' in the game: 'Sonic and the Black Knight.'
Last Book: I read fanfic! So uh, I just reread 'so evil ones should get a little more' the second I saw this prompt, and one of my favorite parts is the ripped doll flashback since everything in the fanfic is so well-written, but this part really hit me hard in the feels! ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧
Last Movie: So, uhhhh I have a bad memory??? I guess I'll just say that the ROTTMNT Movie is a masterpiece and is the main reason why I got into the fandom and was really introduced to the wonders! Without the movie, I wouldn't even be here!
Last TV Show: UH OH. ( ._. )"" I've kind of been on YouTube the whole time watching those cool Minecraft videos on the Unstable SMP recently. SOOOOOOO UHHHH-???
Sweet, Spicy, Savory: I like SPICY FOODS, including ramen and spicy chicken! Sometimes it burns my tongue, but it's really good!
Current Obsession: A bit of ROTTMNT, and ORV here and there! I just really like found family and platonic stories with no romance or minimal romance! ◝(ᵔᗜᵔ)◜
Last Search: 'mosquitoes get in mosquito net' to 'how to get rid of mosquitoes in a mosquito net' because there are a LOT of mosquitoes recently, and I scream in fear whenever I see one. ᐠ( ᐛ )ᐟ
By the way, once again, you're the best, Nerdy!!! (˶ˆᗜˆ˵)
@abbielauren2024 (You can join if you want! No pressure, though!!! Also, I don't really do internet socializing too much because I'm an *COUGH* introvert *COUGH*, so yeah, but have a good day either way, Abbie!)
Happy Birthday @nerdyboiyeet!!! :)) Have a WONDERFUL day and uhhh sorry for making this on paper but my iPad charger is gone and my drawing iPad is dead....
I went back to past chapters like in 'so evil ones should get a little more' fanfic and drew Leo doing the jazz hands after tricking the crew in chapter 10, that one scene in 'The Shadow Assassin' where Leo doesn't know what PIZZA is (illegal fr- PLEASE LET HIM KNOW PIZZA IN A FUTURE CHAPTER I BEG OF THEE) and in 'The lights in your eyes fade and life flashes by' fanfic where Leo makes the schedule reminder. (literally broke my heart- that one scene and what the schedule reminder was about when I first read this fanfic XD)
Sooooooo uhhhh just wanted to say you are one of my most favorite fanfic writers EVER and keep up the amazing work!!! :DD
(I know I'm 15 hours late due to timezones and me coping with life BUT STILL!!! Also I NEVER post nowadays but this was super special so I couldn't resist!!!)
Ok I don't have this often but a weird snack I like is homemade bread and butter with either french fries or molasses on top (it's actually not uncommon where I come from)
your turn @abbielauren2024 @leonrose @nerdyboiyeet @cursedcatchild
This is for the Villain Leo AU called "so evil ones should get a little more" by @nerdyboiyeet and I love the fanfic (you can find the fanfic on AO3 btw)- ideas and basically EVERYTHING in this AU so much that when I heard there were two alternate endings besides the original ending, I chose to draw the super happy alternate ending- I just HAD to draw that ending y'know?!?! :)
I feel like the two would get along with their similarities and parallels and also I feel like Leo would explain some modern stuff to Krang Prime and Krang Prime already knows this stuff (because he does know Leo's memories and stuff) but for Leo's sake pretends that he doesn't! I'm excited to see what their dynamic would be like in this alternate ending!!!!
Also I have a feeling that Krang Prime does NOT look forward to facing the consenquences of his actions... At least he has Leo, though! :D
(By the way, this is my first time drawing Krang Prime lol)
I JUST READ THIS FANFIC AND I AM SO TOUCHED TYSM!!!! <3
I love that Leo and Prime's dynamic, how you included my 'Prime pretending to not know stuff for Leo's sake' headcanon into your fanfic, and their deals becoming an inside joke!!!!
You are an INCREDIBLE WRITER and I love this fanfic so much!!!! :DDDDDD I will reread this fanfic almost everyday, combing through every detail!!!!!
Hey everyone! Yay, I finally finished a concept poster for Machines Don’t Bleed (out on AO3 with the link)! I realized that in my previous art I didn’t quite know how Leo’s arms moved (?) so I tried some shoulder hinges, then didn’t like them so drew shoulder pads over them lol! But I was happy with the was it turned out and I hope you enjoy! ^^
SUMMARY: After taking the hit for Donnie, Leo is cursed into a robot form by the mayor of Witch Town. Everything that made Leo Leo is now written down in his programming—all his memories and personality carefully coded out inside his new robotic mind. But what if someone tried to… alter his programming? For good or for harm?

Hey everyone! I keep telling myself “Abbie stop writing new fanfics you already have some just work on those” but alas I don’t listen so here we are 😆 I’m way ahead on chapters for Crescent and TSLAU and working on more for GBLP so I thought I might as well do this one as well since the concept seemed popular! So please enjoy some Leo angst! ❤️🧡💙💜
——————————————
Leo stared at the dummy in front of him as if it had personally insulted him, breathing heavily and hearing his heartbeat pound in his tympana. He took a sharp breath and began his routine again, trying to picture the bland burlap as sagging pink flesh and sadistic eyes.
”You’ve ruined EVERYTHING!”
Punch.
”You wretched. Little. Pest!”
Kick.
”Outmatched and alone.”
”Wipe that grin off your face!”
Roundhouse.
”Nardo?”
Leo whipped around with his fist raised to strike, eyes unfocused and muscled tensed up. Donnie jumped, and the twins looked at each other for a few seconds before Leo flushed and slowly lowered his arm. “H-hey DonTron. Sorry.”
”Hey yourself.” Donnie rolled his eyes. “‘I’m not training too hard’ my shell.”
”Oh don’t worry about little ol’ me!” Leo regained his composure and offered a wink. “Just got a little carried away there.”
”Ah yes. Just a little, he said very unconvincingly.” Donnie sighed. “I come with hydration because you clearly weren’t using that dum-dum brain of yours to take care of yourself.”
”Heh, thanks Dee.” Leo took the cup of water gratefully and downed it in seconds.
Donnie watched his twin greedily gulp the liquid with narrowed eyes. “You know you need to take care of yourself. This can’t keep happening.”
”Oh pshaw, this was just one time.” Leo tried to wave off his twin, but Donnie only raised a sharpie eyebrow and pulled up a calendar. He clicked on yesterday’s tab and read aloud. “Two forty-seven p.m.: Nardo tripped on his own feet due to dehydration. Check on him tomorrow.” He swiped another day. “One sixteen a.m.: Nardo was found collapsed in the dojo. Install locks.” He swiped to yet another day and Leo gulped. “Ten oh-six a.m.: Nardo skipped breakfast…”
”Okay I get it!” Leo huffed. “Seriously though it’s creepy that you keep track of all that.”
”You know I record everything Nardo.” Donnie thumbed another button and the hologram calendar collapsed. “Especially things like this. You need breaks. You’re not a machine.”
”Geez, no need to get all ‘Dr. Feelings’ on me.” Leo teased, using air quotations. “But seriously it was just a little mix-up. I’ll work on it.”
”’I’ll work on it.’” Came Leo’s own recorded voice from Donnie’s wrist tech, and Leo scowled. “Seriously Donnie?”
”Just making a point.” The soft shell clicked off the recording. “But sigh, Nardo you seriously need to start taking care of yourself. On average the human male should be consuming fifteen point five cups—or three point seven liters—of water per day, and with your turtle DNA plus your inclination to physical activity you should be drinking more than that.”
”Sorry, could you repeat that? I was busy sleeping.” Leo smirked. “I think my brain has been trained to tune out nerd stuff by now.”
Donnie clenched his jaw. “Nardo, this is serious!”
”Yeah yeah, I know. But it’s just a little training to get back in shape after that little med bay vacay—which I just realized rhymes after the words left my mouth. I’m a poet and I don’t even know it.” Leo joked, but Donnie didn’t even crack a smile.
”You were in a coma, Nardo.” The soft shell growled. “That is nothing to joke about. You almost died.”
Leo faltered slightly. “Right, yeah, okay there’s that little detail…”
”None of us are going to let you run yourself into the ground.” Donnie glared at his twin. “You need more food, more water, more sleep, more—“
Suddenly Donnie’s wrist tech beeped, and the soft shell sighed before clicking on the notification. He squinted at it with his heterochromic eyes before grimacing. “Deep sigh, there’s trouble in Witch Town.”
”Well that’s no good.” Leo happily ducked away from Donnie and almost skipped to the door, relieved to be out of the conversation. “Looks like a job for New York’s own heroes…”
”What… scowl, Nardo! I wasn’t finished lecturing you!” Donnie huffed, and Leo rolled his eyes.
”Come on DonTron! The city needs us!” Leo held up a hand. “Scout’s honor we’ll talk when we get back.”
Donnie rolled his eyes. “Nardo, that’s your left hand and therefore an invalid vow. Try again.”
”Is it? Well too bad we’ve gotta go now!” Leo darted out the door, ignoring his twin’s disgruntled clicks.
Hey, you wouldn't happen to know around when you'll post the next chapter of 'the light in your eyes' hmm? Asking for a friend of course, I'm totally not obsessed with this au, hahaha, nope, not me... 😅
Words cannot express how EXCITED am! The usage of canon is GENIUS and this fanfic proves exactly why @nerdyboiyeet is one of my favorite ROTTMNT fanfic authors! :> Also the new chapter's last bit shocked me I literally did not see that coming!? :O
