Time for a new pinned post! My name's Kirby. I'm a #furry #artist and #programmer who's working on getting better at what I do. #art #furryart #fursona #protogen #intro

View my stuff in higher-quality at my #FurAffinity: www.furaffinity.net/user/localps...

A drawing of my protogen-cheetah fursona crossing his arms with the following text:

Hey there! I'm Kirby, the Local Psychic. As you can probably already tell, I'm a furry artist who likes protogens, playing cards, and purple.

I've been around the internet in one form or another since 2006! I'm mostly self-taught in terms of art and programming and even though I've been drawing furries for years I've only recently truly joined the fandom.

You can expect lots of sketches and works-in-progress as I try to improve my craft!

Rough sketches of my fursona, and characters from my two big ideas. The text reads:

What to Expect: I'm an artist and programmer! So you're gonna get a lot of art and the occasional game-dev musings. Since I'm still trying to improve my craft, you're gonna get a lot of sketches on graph paper like this.

But the two big ideas I have are:
Celectrique: A superhero comic story
&
Earthsoul Dragons: A roguelite deckbuilding game

I DO NOT and WILL NOT draw sexual or fetishized content, nor will I repost it or follow mostly not safe for work accounts. I WILL repost SFW content from and follow occasionally spicy artists, because I don't have anything against them, it's just not something I'm interested in doing personally.

I will not support any sort of hate speech or hateful ideologies. If you have a problem with someone who just wants to exist in peace, get lost.

"Broken" is the #dontinktwice word of the day, and Celeste's learning the hard way that maybe getting into fights while carrying her pocket watch isn't a good idea. #art #furryart #avian #superhero #celectrique

Can't believe I actually FORGOT the image the first time god

A fun call back to the music of 2010. 'Broken' was easily one of my favorite songs from Gorillaz' Plastic Beach Album, right underneath 'Empire Ants'. Can't say I've drawn anyone from the band before! This was a fun change of pace!

Distant stars come in black or red, Doodlers!
Happy #dontinktwice!

That about sums up a lot of my day-to-day

How many grandfather clocks does one house need, let alone in a single long hallway

WHOA this is so cool!

So I've found Mint handles X-input controllers kinda weird natively

Thank goodness for Steam Input, and that adding GMS2 to my library works for playtesting, but I don't like the idea of leaning on an external fix

Though anyone playing my game on Linux would probably be fine with using it anyway

Since I'm still in a bit of a Mario Galaxy mood, I made some sprites of Starship Mario for use on map screens. There's even little passengers! I made 3D renders to use as perfectly accurate references.

The #dontinktwice word of the day is "bark" and, well, another one of those situations where it popped right into my mind. One of my earliest gaming memories was playing Super Mario 64 and seeing that big ol' Chain-Chomp... #art #fanart #sketch #mario #chainchomp #supermario64

This was just a silly concept I was revisiting from DIT past. This time around, it's a different talk doing all the talking and they've got a lot to say. All 'Bark And No Bite' ... well, "Only Bark", more like it. Gotta wonder how much of it is true.

Be verbose, Doodlers!
Happy #dontinktwice!

You should never apologize for drawing something awesome

Dang, I would definitely play a Poker Night game with this crew, though

I'd probably fold that hand even if I didn't know someone had a better flush than what I *might* get on the river though

Majora's Mask is definitely in my upper echelon - though my favourite out of the series is always gonna be Link's Awakening.

I'm sure someone's gonna tell me I'm extra dumb for not just using the draw_3d scripts and you know what

Yeah

Kirby, Local Psychic @localpsychic.net · 1d

Because I'm dumb, I wasn't using scripts to automate all the math for this fake 3D effect and was doing it all by hand each and every time

I finally realized how dumb that was and now I have scripts that automate it which made this effect way easier to do #gamedev #gamemakerstudio #programming
