November 2022 Doodles

Do you have any hcs for older Crystal ( and Clem? ) ik you only have a design for Crystal but I’m curious to hear your hcs abt what they get up to when they’re older

I'm glad you asked! Let's see…

(Disclaimer: These are rough ideas and subject to change. I love these characters so I tend to go on and on and on and on. I will put it under a cut so people are not bombarded by great walls of text lol.)

I toy with the idea of Crystal and Clem being camp counselors at Whispering Rock once they get all their problems sorted out. I'm entertained by the idea of Clem taking over Basic Braining (PUNCH PUNCHY PUNCH YAAAY RAZ!!) The adult Clem I have in my mind looks like a sports coach, and I think his version of Basic Braining would take place in a stadium with various sporting events. Basic Braining but instead of Coach Oleander yelling at you to move your ass, it's Clem being overwhelmingly supportive, "YEAH YOU CAN DO IT! NEVER GIVE UP!"

Now it's time for my girl, Crystal. She sometimes pops in Clem's Basic Braining, but she has her own levitation class (maybe overdone? lol) like Milla's Dance Party. Except instead of 70s disco, it's 80s electro-synth-whatever-the-proper-name-is pop. As for specifics on how it would look or be like, I am still thinking about it. I based my older Crystal's outfit on 80s fitness instructors. She's still very bubbly and optimistic, even more so since now dark emotions don't cloud her mind and weigh her heart. I just want the best for them (her and Clem), so I want them to get better.

I'm still thinking about HOW they get to the recovery point. I cannot explain currently due to my ideas being too vague. I don't want it to sound like the therapy fairy waves her wand and fixes 'em better because it takes effort and a willingness to WANT to get better (for Clem especially because he's so jaded and devoid of hope.) I have faith in Clem for him to change and realize he hasn't always had Crystal's best interests in mind. He does care about her, but he's so entangled in his own negativity. It causes a rough strain on their friendship, but they do reconcile as young adults.

They are not dating as adults, but I do entertain the idea of them trying dating for a very short (and I mean SHORT, like less than a week) time. It's weird and awkward for them, so they prefer just being best friends. They get a ton of people always asking "ARE YOU TWO DATING??" No, they're just besties. I don't really do shipping so I don't ship them with anyone, even as hypothetical adults. I don't know about friends they'd have aside from each other (because I have only thought about hypothetical older versions for a small handful of campers.) Clem basically cuts all contact from his parents (good for him) and Crystal does her best to distance herself from her mother.

For making it all the way to the end, you can have this:

They're like 18-22 or something.

Here are some sketch versions of my drawings. Most of them are sketches that I used the pixel brush on since I sketch them out in a different program before putting them in IbisPaint.

February 2023 Doodle Highlights

Psychics are in full swing. More under the cut. Special thanks to my sister for inspiring 99% of these.

i've noticed that the psychonauts fandom is so small, and more specifically so tight knit, that everybody kind of knows everybody. It's like we all live in a big cul-de-sac. I've even started compiling what seem to be household names in the fandom world.

People, usually artists, that are just there. In every mini-circle, in every server, in every "OH MY GOD LOOK AT THIS/pos" convo.

all this to say: me and my friends love your art. it's amazing and you've had a very positive impact on the fandom (or at least a fandom server, which has enough people and inside jokes to be its own fandom at this point lmao)

I want to deeply thank you, your friends, and everyone who leaves very kind words on my artwork and in my inbox. I want you all to know that I keep those kind words rotating in my head like a rotisserie chicken, and that I go back to read them again and again. I am deeply grateful and very happy that my drawings are so well-liked. I often underestimate myself and the impact I have on others, and to read that I have had a great positive impact on something is mind-boggling (in a good way. It's a little hard to describe the feeling.)

It makes me very happy that I've brought joy just as other artists have brought joy to me with their drawings and writings. It's a great feeling, and I am very thankful. I like our little fandom. We're all holding hands and spinning around like that monkey gif.

(July 17 - July 24 2023)

I like the funny psychics so I drew some more. More under the cut. hooraaaaaaaay

Hey did you know that July 18 is National Caviar Day?

Hey look I didn't get distracted this time and drew all the stuff I meant to draw last time.

I'm sorry for putting the funny psychics with the space furries it won't happen again (it might.)

This vision came to me in a dream. I made it so.

sorry if asks aren't permitted, i just don't really see people talk about this aha

have you seen those psychonauts 1 MTV G4 tv bumpers? short, sweet and so cute. i just found out they even existed

Asks are always permitted! I like when people send asks :D

Yes, I have seen them, and I think they are wonderful. This one is my favorite:

Noodles Served in Pepto Bismol

I drew this for my sister's birthday since she likes Gorillaz (especially Noodle.)

This is an old drawing, but I still like it. This was done way before I started writing dates on everything, but I figured out that it's from November 1, 2019.

Heya hi howdy! Hope your days been well! Anything you’re looking forward to you wanna share? Or any doodles? Any Headcanons you’ve always wanted to talk about but never had the opportunity???

I dunno! Mostly just wanted to say I LOVE your works and look forward to seeing your posts on my dash <3

Oh and, Hi Quentin! (,’

Helloooo! I've been alright. I'm kinda looking forward to when my sister leaves once more so I can play PN1 on her laptop and do Very Important Camper Research on the weekend, but that kinda sounds mean like I WANT her to leave lol. It's not the case.

I've actually been meaning to revisit/redo the previous time I shared headcanons when you asked, but I haven't gotten around to it. I basically took some bulletpoints from my "Thought Compilation" doc and some of my guidelines and observations got mixed in with what could be considered "headcanon" or "interpretation" or whatever. Some of which have been altered/changed due to better understanding the characters as I draw and observe/learn about them more, so that post has become somewhat outdated. This is also part of why I considered making a side blog or something, but I dunno.

ETA on that: Eventually.

Now for doodles. Anything I've done recently will be compiled in a post like I do monthly/bimonthly, so look out for that in August (or whenever I feel the time is right.) There are some things in there I think you may like, but I am not ready to share them yet.

But I do not want you to go empty handed, so I will show some fun things I call "absolute rejects." Some of which do not even exist anymore and the only proof they existed is from crusty phone pictures. I will also share some doodles I did not deem good enough to post. This post is getting long, so I will put them under a handy dandy cut:

This is from October 28, 2023. It's hard to tell, but Lili is the one tickling Raz's nose.

(November 13, 2023) PATHETIC.

(January 22, 2024) Older Phoebe.

(April 12, 2024) An earlier version of older Crystal.

(October 18, 2023) I showed my sister and she said she looked like a mouse. This is why anthro Tala is a mouse.

(October 28, 2023) Benny die lmao. I think this was a request?

(February 11, 2024) I'm not sure how to explain the context.

(February 12, 2024) Or the context to this one either. They are repelling like magnets.

(February 14, 2024) OK!

(March 7, 2024) It is my duty to Megaman-ify everything I like.

(June 16, 2024) ???

(June 17, 2024) I actually thought about including it in the June doodle compilation, but decided against it. I have a soft spot for very early Psychonauts fanart. This is me channeling my younger self to pay tribute to that lol.

Wait, I've got one more thing:

Hello from Quentin. I also want to thank you for leaving kind and enthusiastic words on my drawings! I highly value them and it makes my day to read them.
