Augustus Aquato - Blog Posts
When I draw him as a teen I always give him his nanny chin
A complexion study! I thought it’d be interesting to contemplate what the Aquatos would look like with a few varieties of realistic Romani skin colors and how the two might mingle to retain that goofy red/yellow/green and yellow/blue/brown color harmony from the games.
I’m absolutely not the first person to do this, but I can’t find the post that inspired me. It was Frazie and Mirtala with brown skin in pretty blue leotards, I think. If anyone can find it, plz link me.
(I also felt the need to sit and tweak Raz’s face a bit so he looks less like a Danny Phantom clone than in previous drawings.)
[ID: Digital art of sketches of Razputin and the Aquato family with skin tones varying from Simpsons yellow to olive to warm red-brown. There’s a bunch of tests of Raz in the top left as a smiling teenager. In the top right, Dion has been reimagined with long hair pulled back in a thick ponytail and a goatee. He’s wearing a royal blue leotard with gold trim and a deep collar. He looks contemplative. Frazie is in the bottom right with her hair flayed out behind her in an 80s windswept look. She’s wearing a light blue leotard with stripes of purple-blue swirly fabric, yellow trim around the midsection, and a white striped undershirt underneath. She’s staring curiously at a green lens she found. Donatella smiles and winks behind her with yellow and white glitter on her cheeks and blue shadowed eyes. There’s a gag in the bottom left of Augustus (in a green and yellow ringmaster’s outfit) warmly telling Raz (in a grey long sleeve) that he’s starting to get his grandmother’s chin, and Raz uncomfortably imagines himself with a skinny blunted chin like Marona. The skin tones of the children are varying intersections of their father’s red-brown skin and their mother’s olive skin. End ID]
Happy Fathers Day!
Happy Mermay!
Day 13 : The King of The Ocean.
If Raz is an Irken, then that would mean.....
Part 2 of alien day post.
Happy Scream Day from Psychonauts Re-brained.
too celebrate, Augustus gets his chest hair waxed.

I hurt my hands from drawing too much in April, but I'm okay. During that time I was trying to take a break from drawing, but I was beginning to lose it, so I drew Maloof in MS Paint.
I continued resting afterwards and I was able to draw normally again.
I wanted to try drawing Quentin with different expressions again. It wasn't so bad this time, but ...
[Earthbound mortal damage sound effect]
Might revisit this one. I wasn't feeling it the day I drew it.
I saw that shirt and thought of him.
This is really my third attempt at squirrel Augustus.
Elka is like a cartoon character to me. Her manner of speech is very expressive.
Cutting the bush does not hurt it.
Request from my sister (she is a fan of Gorillaz, could you tell?) Seems that Noodle Fed-Ex'ed herself to the wrong address and The Levitators/Firestarters/Whispering Rockers have a guitarist now.
I wish I could have drawn more. I thought the outfit Elton was drawn in here was cute.
making Bobby go through it in the elaborate music videos that play in my mind at midnight.
Slightly older Bobby (14?)
Rejected sketch. Well, who did you think was the one who cut Raz's head in half? (jk)
I will draw them until my fingers break.
I redrew the first image.
(February 5 - February 29, 2024)
There's lots of goodies in here. Look under the cut to see more.
I had "Material Girl" stuck in my head that morning the day I drew that. It was a sign ...
Original sketch by Mew. I was given permission to redraw it.
Knighting Misha.
It is CRIMINAL it took me this long to draw Mr. Pokeylope.
Clem and Crystal in super Salem style. Nothing but respect.
Alright, you know what? (Megaman-ifies your Psychonauts character and Psychonauts-ifies your Megaman character) TAKE THAT.
Are there any Nils fans out there? This one goes out to you.
I took suggestions from friends on what to draw Crystal & Clem doing. Special thanks to them.
Maybe I am starting to come around to Elka.
I love the way he says stupid. STUUUUUUPID
Misha is my favorite and I've never even drawn him with his normal palette. I had to do something about it.
Dad's wisdom. Requested by my sister, based on an inside joke.
Chuck Jones-ish Maloof. It's my second time trying this style.
Standalone palette drawing unrelated to the Spray Paint Palette series. Don't worry about Elton, he's just fine. This is only a dream he is having. Special thanks to Dire Dire Docks for helping me complete this.
Crystal going through it.
Mouse Mirtala (don't ask how it's possible when Raz is a squirrel.)
Dr. Loboto, that is not proper doctor-patient conduct.
After a long day of running a protection racket, let's go play.
(October 16 - October 30, 2023)
I hope everyone had a good Halloween. Here's Lili and Raz loving and cherishing Harold. More stuff under the cut.
Sometimes you just have to draw nice things to make yourself feel better. Now here's some mood whiplash.
I noticed that Bobby and Raz sort of have the same silhouette with their body. I drew this to try and demonstrate what I mean. I think it's beautiful, personally.
you know I know who got the flow, we know they know who runs the show ...
hmmm Katherine and Francine. I only colored it because I wanted to color Franke's pants.
One of my friends said Elton looks like he's about to work at the Krusty Krab.
I was going to color these but then I didn't.
My sister wanted me to draw Donatella.
Patatino... and mood whiplash part two:
Kawaii ✨ (shrivels up and dies) The message is edited. It is from a Discord message and given new context. (The original context does not pertain to Psychonauts.)
I want to beep his nose, but he barely has a nose to beep
🎺🎺🎺.

My sister asked me to draw the Aquatos for her school binder. I don't draw on paper very often these days (or even COLOR on paper. I'm sure you could tell very quickly.)
It's not perfect, but my sister was satisfied with the results so I think it's alright. As you can see, it's based on the poster thingy in the 2nd game's intro animation.
Wait, can't forget Nona. (August 24 2023)
and Sugarcube is there too.
Hooray that means I've drawn every Aquato (and in color, too)
hello from Frazie
April 2023 Doodle Highlights

good time (more under the cut.)
January 2023 Doodle Highlights
This was when funny psychics got me in a telekinetic iron grip halfway through the month
hi psychonauts fans I'm here to throw up 20000 drawings of Raz (they get better, I promise. Raz was hard to draw at first.) More under the cut as usual.
