Raph, being a paint nerd: Orange didn't have a name before that, they considered it a light red, that's why redheads are called redheads even though their hair is more orange than red.
Today is my First very Real day of (Inhale Deeply, Exhale Deeply.) I am having such a Good time about it, I might even Lay on the floor about it! I did do a Kiss of spelunking though and-
I am Laughing- To think I am Behind on So much!
I think Tumblr made a Post about it A Long While back! Don't mind if I Reblog it here, Because it is the Equivalent of hanging it on my Fridge!
Ah! One more thing from Ko-fi! These illustrations were used for the Welcome Home Exhibition to accompany the Worksheets! Well... You've all solved the Worksheets too, now! You know how the residents must feel... These were some Tough questions..
Home would have been there... But how does a House hold a pencil... With confidence, I assume, but also with some slight difficulty when it comes to writing their name... Well! Wally's here to help!
I didn`t notised the eye-hole in a vinyl record until my friend had pointed out this...I think i need new glasses `cause he noticed it on the first one, and here I am eight records later and didn't even pay attention while looking in a dark parts of pages

As the description has stated, Earth-381 is fan made project that reimagines various series from the world of Marvel.
The project will start with a whole new version of Spider-Man and will follow with each of the Avengers and so on and so on.
Each comic of the project, will take time to update but I hope you all have as much fun reading the comics as I will drawing them.
I don’t have a release date for the first comic but once it’s done, I’ll be sure to let all of you know.
If you have any questions or theories, you can message my ask box. My only request is to keep it appropriate, the age range I’m going for in these comics are 16+.
Thank you all for reading and hopefully the first comic can be out soon.
Ok. After reading several 2012! TMNT fanfictions, I just have to comment on this one thing that's driving me up the wall.
Raphael is almost never written correctly. Like I'm not just talking about the constant bashing he gets. I'm talking about how he insults/teases his brothers is portrayed completely wrong like 90% of the time.
Rapheal does not just wake up in the morning and decides to go belittle his brothers with basic, unimaginative insults. No no no. Name calling is to plain for Raph. Instead, Raphael bides his time and waits for the perfect moment to do so.
The boys are on a mission and they find themselves in the middle of an abandoned warehouse? Raphael would say something like “this place is emptier than Mikey’s head.”
Donnie’s explaining how Microscopes help people examine things to small to see with the naked eye? Raph would interject like “wow! Maybe then we can finally see Mikey’s brain with this thing!”
The team is trapped in a particularly disgusting sewer? Raph would be saying “this place smells worse than Leo’s cooking” then a pile of sludge would drop directly on his face and after wiping it off he’d go “but it definitely tastes better.”
Raph is stuck in the villians’ grasp as Leo starts a huge dorky hero speech? He would dead ass turn to villain and just say “can you do me a favor and just kill me now before he rambles on for the next hour?”
The boys are fighting giant bird mutant that has a piercing super sonic screech? Raph would be like “goddamn this thing shrieks almost as loud as Donnie!”
Donnie pointing out something really obvious during one of their missions? Ralph would sarcastically quip something like “Truly your insight is really invaluable to this team Donatello.”
And y’all crossover fanfiction writters are absolutely kidding yourselves if you think Rise! Donnie wouldn’t adore taunting people with 2012! Raph. Hell they'd probably go off and brainstorm some new ones for each of their brothers and counterparts. Poor Rise! Leo would definitely be taking brunt of their insults.
Just let him be the teasing terror of a brother that he is.
Almost always tends to make the first move in combat, surprisingly aggressive and impulsive. In fact, she sucks at defense in her fight with Karai and doesn't block a single attack.
Is REALLY oblivious to Donnies interest in her- doesn't notice him staring, is often otherwise occupied and brushes him off, she occasionally gives him questioning glances tho
First glimpse of her powers is in the episode with Rockwell as she has a better connection with him as another empath and she figures out he's human. (The description given in that episode about the powers they were hoping the mutagen could give them also describes April's powers in general)
She tends to understate things a lot. "Donnie got beat up by a monkey" (mutant.) "I'm being stalked by a giant pigeon" (mutant) "attacked by an old lady" (the most powerful kraang bot they'd seen by this point. )
There's lots of moments mentioned but not seen of April helping Donnie in the lab.
Biology seems to he her best or favourite subject. It is the one she mentions the most and is seen doing the most. She almost always has her biology textbook with her
She's failing trig
I think this is just lazy animation but she doesn't react as much when not the direct focus of a conversation (compared to the turtles) making her look like she's zoned out
Whenever she's upset she puts her arms around her torso like she's hugging herself. If she's sitting she pulls her legs up to her chest and rests her head on her knees.
Is most physically effectionate when excited, grabs onto the turtles shoulders without thinking. Hugs them (i think only donnie actually) more out of impulse than anything else. Can get very in their personal space when excited about something they're saying too
Whenever she's going undercover and pretending to be a delivery person or cop she puts on a deep voice
She does improve and has her moments in general but she's often a terrible liar. She stutters and looks around awkwardly
She also over acts and struggles to act natural on command ("Well I sure hope no pigeon sneaks up on me!")
Spends enough time one on one with Splinter to rival Leo. This is seen in their individual training sessions they do when the turtles are on missions as well as being implied as something they frequently do off screen.
In her student ID her picture shows her with braces and glasses.
This one's obvious but she's closest with Donnie. He's the only one we see her hug in this season, the only one she's implied to hang out with off screen and the one she always calls in an emergency.
He's also the first one she really smiles at and trusts in the first couple episodes.
Despite not saying she wants to be a journalist like some other versions, she definitely still has some of those skills. She is brilliant as finding articles and information on Kraang sightings online, is capable of getting information out of random civilians, has a recording device attached to an app on her phone which she sneaks into the purple dragons base and she manages to find the TCRI blueprints.
There's one scene when she's training with Splinter that she focuses too hard on the specific motions and shuts her eyes rather than watch him
Thought it was funny that Splinter eventually gave April a throwing weapon given she accidentally threw two of the previous weapons she tried
She can seemingly follow along with at least some of donnies scientific rambles, especially compared to the others
She has 1,178 unread emails, one of which is in urgent
Why does the 2012 fandom completely ignore the fact that Raphael is artistic?
We literally see it happen in the freaking show!
And he named his pet after a famous artist and gave his girlfriend a nickname of a famous piece of art, also indirectly telling her that every time he calls her that name he’s telling her she's a beautiful work of art <3
And one of the actual producers of the show, Ciro Nieli, confirmed it!
For 87 Ramona, like you said, in Mona’s case, she believes that she is not beautiful anymore, because she is now a mutant lizard, but then she meets Raph who tells her that he doesn’t think she’s a freak and assures her that she is beautiful.
For Raphael’s case, he believes he is never appreciated or acknowledged as a hero. Then he meets Mona Lisa, a girl who talks so highly about the ninja turtles (we don’t know how she knows of them, but she does), believing they could save the day. The second Mona discovers Raph is actually one of the ninja turtles, she is ecstatic and hugs him, giving him the acknowledgment as a hero that he so badly wants.
A raph hater on twitter pissed me off so imma bring something up that I’ve thought about for a while.
Why do so few people discuss how his brothers KNOW raph has anger issues he struggles to work on
Yet they INTENTIONALLY trigger him?
Yeah I know. Siblings push each others buttons. I’m not calling his brothers evil or anything.
But y’all raph haters go on and on about how raph “manipulates” and “hits” and “is mean” to his brothers (mostly Mikey is brought up cause, fan favorite)
But it’s ok to yall that his bros intentionally trigger his emotional problems cause they think it’s funny?
“Oh they’re just being typical siblings”
And roughhousing and rude nicknames isn’t?
So it’s fine for Mikey to antagonize raph to the point raph snaps but raphs abusive for thwacking Mikey for it?
Like, yeah. Raph needs to work on his emotional problems to get better but here’s the thing.
He does
I know Netflix and paramount only have season 1 so I understand a lot of newer fans don’t have access to the rest of the series but I PROMISE YOU, he does get better.
He gets a LOT better.
I’d even say he becomes the most mature one of the team.
Despite his brother’s continuing to push his buttons.
They get better too but they still have a long way to go.
I have to ask:
Do you ACTUALLY think raphs abusive?
Or do you just not wanna admit that your fav is flawed?
I swear to fucking god every single time I see a person call 2012 Raph abusive I am gonna lose my fucking mind.
Did you even fucking watch the fucking show? Did you not see the character development?
Yes he smacks 2012 Mikey a lot but thats because they are fucking siblings! 2012 Mikey is a little fucking shit that constantly presses 2012 Raph's buttons.
They call each other names and make fun of each other BECAUSE THEY ARE SIBLINGS!!!!
Also did you not see how 2012 Raph is ALWAYS the first one to go after 2012 Mikey when he's in trouble? How he ALWAYS saves him when he's in over his head.
HOW HE FUCKING FROZE WHEN MIKEY GOT INJURED BY SNAKEWEED!????
HOW AFTER THE SEASON 2 FINALE RAPH STEPPED UP TO TAKE CARE OF EVERYONE!??!
HOW HE WATCHED OVER LEO FOR THREE MONTHS!?!!?
HE IS NOT FUCKING ABUSIVE YOU MORON HE LOVES HIS FAMILY MORE THAN ANYTHING FUCK OFF
Anyways if I didn't already have three big fanfics I would absolutely write a 2012 Raph centric one out of pure spite
God I go into the 2012 tag and like 80% of the posts are people saying 2012 sucks in comparison to Rise (while also admitting they never actually watched it), hating on 2012 April, or talking about how various characters need a redesign because they sucked
