ArtFight attack for @retromochi.bsky.social (Saltycedar on ArtFight) of his character Cedar! Quick warmup today before working on comms, decided to use this as a chance to experiment.

Last of these art attack things 4 now, @retromochi's PN oc Ezra

ID: A bust shot of Ezra looking tiredly over toward the camera. Ezra is a white man with green eyes and long brown hair tied up in a ponytail. He has scruffy stubble above his lip and on his chin. He’s wearing large hexagonal framed glasses and a white lab coat over an orange shirt. The lab coat has a Psychonauts pin affixed to the collar. End ID.

hi do you have any headcanons about the early days of the psychic 7 :-) i love thinking about these weird hippies doing Mind Experiments in the middle of the woods and i like hearing other peoples takes so much

i don't have much BUT. otto has created 7 different death rays. helmut made a song each inspired by each of the minds of his friends (he's been in each of em and they were pretty wack). compton did most of the cooking even though his methods were... unusual (have you SEEN him go at it in that one section in his mind, the guy is feral).

also i think otto and ford definitely discovered and practiced all of the more... destructive psi powers (pyrokinesis, confusion, electrokinesis, psi blast)

rhackies be like "why the fuck don't you like this ship. this is a personal attack on me specifically."

im really hoping that rhys + the tftbl crew is in bl3 but like... i keep squinting at the screenshot of rhys with the mustache in the trailer and i cant really tell its him? not to be skeptical im just really bad at noticing details hjkbln... how can you tell?

to be honest i wouldn’t be so sure myself if like… Everyone Else hadn’t agreed w me there. but when u think about it he’s a very tall guy with a similar haircut, trademark tie, and stupid looking jacket, and he’s standing on top of the atlas sign. there aren’t really any other known characters i can think of that would fit that description (ESPECIALLY the nod to atlas, since we last saw rhys insisting he’ll rebuild the company) so it’s either him or a different lanky, similar-looking guy with ties to atlas that’s a new character

and the borderlands series is pretty good with character design? so if they were going to bring in a new character to be the head of atlas then chances are they’d probably try and make him Noticeably Different to rhys (other than just a moustache adshkjfvhfdkjf). additionally, we already had hints that the tftbl player characters were going to show up in bl3, as gearbox bought the rights to the characters after telltale went bust (implying they’re going to do something with them)

you’re right though! this isn’t concrete info. but man i hope it is him because that suggests the others will be there too and i rly miss those guys !!!

retromochi replied to your photo “Going with a more casual Duck cosplay, couldn’t find a shirt that...”

please... show me the cheesy bigfoot shirt

i didn’t get any pictures! but damn i should have. but basically they’re like this 

and i think one said something along the lines of ‘this doesn’t count as a bigfoot sighting”

since people were talking about psycho portals, im curious if you had any headcanons/theories for how they get made? it’s always the tiny bit of unspoken lore that intrigues me the most. like are they custom made for agents at a certain rank? do they make it themselves? though i think my personal favorite idea is that they’re just mass produced and everyone gets to decorate theirs in arts and crafts :-)

I think you probably make a psychoportal by crafting the little door and then like. idk why my head goes to "open the little door and drop some psitanium in then close it" bc thats not how. putting objects together works. they're so small tho it's hard to imagine where else the psitanium goes.

I do think the base doors themselves are probably refined at this point in time, so the customization comes from painting them~ but the oldest ones are all little handcarved ones. and you probably could still do that if you wanted to.
