# About me

Welcome to my site

I usually refer to myself as the little crazy pink alien, if you have to summarize me in four words. I’m a bit crazy yes, my dress code is all about two colors (pink and black), and I’m sure that I used to be some sort of an alien in a previous life ;D

I’m from north of Sweden and very proud of it!!

TMNT is the eternal love of my life, and Donatello is my fictional boyfriend since I was six.
At the moment though, I'm extremely deep down in the YGO-swamp, with no sight of getting out TwT

If you want to thank me for a or , give me a llama. I want a ninja! ;P

You have no idea how incredibly surprised but happy I got when I logged in and saw all of your inktober drawings! I vaguely remember you had joined the challenge but I'm not entirely sure? Anyway, it will take a while for me to comment on all of them, because I really want to do that! But for now, let me just say how happy I am to see your art again
Take care of yourself

Yeah, I metioned inktober in my latest journal, but I didn't go into details about it lol! 
Oh gosh, yeah I've seen all your comments and I'm pretty much flailing hysterically with my arms! Thank you a lot! It'll take a while for me to reply as well, but I will because I want to. Thanks for all your compliments and inputs

Hi.
The picture you want to submit to featured folder needs to be resubmitted to the canon folder. That folder is for our founder's favorite choices from the galleries.

Tarashima In reply to MagnaAngel [2017-10-22 20:51:33 +0000 UTC]

DArt messed up a bit for me when I tried to submit it, there was no other folder than featured to choose. But thanks for letting me know! I'll correct it

MagnaAngel In reply to Tarashima [2017-10-22 21:29:58 +0000 UTC]

It should work. All the founders are open except the featured folder. Let me know if it doesn't.

Well, long story short it's been on a hiatus since my mental health started to spiral down and affected my art, but I'm slowly getting back so I hope there can be an update soon again. I will NEVER abandon my precious baby

Thanks for your feedback on ~ ♥

I am glad you liked the fanart enough to leave a comment. Feedback is always appreciated, especially if it is more than a word. I wasn't reading fanfiction's for years! I stopped reading almost six years ago and never had the motivation to look something up until I found Scrawler. I wanted to save her profile pic since it was a colored picture of the manga that I hadn't in my collection and I'm very grateful for this coincidence~ <33

Thanks again!

Tarashima In reply to EngelchenYugi [2017-03-25 20:24:55 +0000 UTC]

No problem at all! It always make me happy when I see fanart for fanfics, especially if I've read them myself of course it's just as funny even if I haven't read the fics, then I get a recommendation in one of the best kind of way
I'm happy Scrawler made you come back into reading again (ooooh, the power of good writing )

Seriously how do you not have more watchers? Your YGO comic thing is fantastic!!! You definitely got a follow from me, I wish to see more.

Oh gosh! Thank you so much for the follow!!  
I don't care too much about the number of watchers, but I appreciate every single one I have and I gladly brag about how great they are (because seriously, I have so many precious watchers  ). Think we need more... action before the armies come

Saij-Spellhart In reply to Tarashima [2017-02-17 00:07:26 +0000 UTC]

I think I made a lot of my watchers mad. I went MIA for a good long while, and when i came back i started flooding my DA with Bleach art, and most of my followers followed me for my Final Fantasy and YGO art. So now they are prolly all, "What the hell?"

Tarashima In reply to Saij-Spellhart [2017-02-18 22:31:06 +0000 UTC]

Oh dear, sounds like me and my watchers, I have a lot from the Ice Age era, and then I just started uploading original art with sporadic fanart in between and then nothing but YuGiOh, so I can relate

So what made you just start doing YGO arts all of a sudden?

Tarashima In reply to Saij-Spellhart [2017-02-26 11:33:29 +0000 UTC]

I liked YGO quite a lot when I was 15, that was when the manga got here. And when I got on sick leave almost two years ago, I picked it up again, but this time watched the whole anime and read the whole manga. And well... Got hooked for real
I've drawn fanart ever since I was a kid, so it kinda followed

Saij-Spellhart In reply to Tarashima [2017-02-26 21:10:56 +0000 UTC]

YGO was a guilty pleasure for me. I didn't want people to know I liked it at first, but now I don't care.

I felt the same about several other fandoms at first too. 

My husband is a brony, and i fought so long and hard to not be identified as a pony fan.

Such a classic when it comes to friends and partners
My mom and oldest sister were the first ones to love Harry Potter, and I disliked the books and movies just because of that. It took to at least the third movie until I said "okay, so I might like the books and movies quite a lot"

Saij-Spellhart In reply to Tarashima [2017-03-10 18:08:43 +0000 UTC]

Oh God, I HATE Harry Potter after the third movie. 

The first was cute, and wonderous. The Second had a bit more adventure but it was still so colorful and bright and endearing. The third got a bit more dark, but there was still that background element of fun and fantasticical. 

After that the movies got darker and more depressing. The filmography dropped in quality with each new director. Each movie becoming darker and more grayscale than the last. It got to the point where the movies prolly could have just been shot in black and white and nobody could tell the difference. It was so dreary and gray. Everything was so grayscale and monotonous. 

I actually got depressed watching the movies. Because each one left me feeling down, and disappointed, and unhappy. A combination of the story in each film mixed with the drab filmography. 

I started to dread seeing the next film because it was just gonna ruin the rest of my day. But I was determined to watch them all because everyone said I should. Everyone told me how great they were. I would have preferred a Lord of the Rings marathon at that point. Because atleast Lord of the Rings gives you that constant sense of hope and wonder. And there's still color, and the characters are so emotional. You really get caught up in everyone's feelings. 

I didn't feel that with the final Harry Potter movies. Everyone was so emotionally stunted, and serious. The last movie glanced over SO MANY DEATHS. So many endearing and special characters died near the end, and no one seemed to CARE! I couldn't even keep track of or keep up with the deaths. It was like oops one of the twins died, hope you didn't care because we only glanced over it for 3 seconds. 

After watching them all I decided to just stick with the first 3 movies. I like the director for the first two. and I like all the magic and excitement and adventure in the first three. 

I tried reading the first book, but it wasn't my cup of tea.
