Year 2020 in review

Here's my traditional Year in Art collage for 2020! It's been almost nothing but comic this year :'D And surprisingly no digital art at all... interesting.

It's been a pretty shitty year to put it nicely, but thank you everyone who has been supporting me through this bad times

Let's hope next year is a bit less horrible (I feel like I say this every year xD)

Is there anything you'd like to see from me next year, maybe? :3c

39th page!

Sorry for the wait, but here's the 39th page of Paths of Avarnight finally!

read it in either Webtoons! or Tapas!

I fell ill at the end of November (not with corona luckily, but it it was a very annoying flu) so this page is super late, I'll try to get the next one done more quickly, but happy Winter Solstice and New Year, if I don't make it before that!

Shameful advertising

I feel kind of bad for even doing this at the level of crisis we're currently facing, but I'm also just one poor old artist who is trying to make ends meet while the world crumbles down around us :'D

So hey, I finally remembered to add some new products to my Redbubble shop, please have a peek if you're in need of more stuff:

https://haltijakapala.redbubble.com

You can also get my comics & zines from Turun sarjakuvakauppa web store (and combine buying these with your regular comic needs <3 )

And of course my own shop is also still in service!

No new products unfortunately since I need an actual physical event before I can take the financial burden of printing more prints, postcards etc :'( Maybe next year...

Thank you and hopefully soon I will be back with the next page of Paths!

38th page!

Here's the 38th page finally

I'm sorry this page is late and looks like crap :'( As I mentioned before new block of the watercolour paper I use turned out to be defected, BUT I'm getting more! I am very grateful for the excellent customer service at the place I bought it from.

I nevertheless tried to work with the defected paper while I waited for the new paper. It didn't work out very well, but at least I tried!

Hopefully the next page won't be too late either, but I can't make any promises anymore, I've been feeling a bit unwell recently and all these sorts of obstacles really slow me down x') I'll try my best to keep up with the updates as steadily as possible!

Next page is going to be late.

I opened a new block of the watercolour paper I use for the comic and looks like the whole thing is defected...

I’m trying to get new paper asap, but let’s see how it goes. I’m just pretty tired of all this bullshit, isn’t there anything I can trust? :”””) I've been using that paper for years.

Slowly updating comic updates slowly

I'm sorry the updates come this haphazardly, but every time I think I have time to draw some mysterious new deadline pops up from nowhere xD Well, at least I've applied for grants again, no one can say I didn't ! xD

Befitting to this spooky season we have a new, spooky page today~ Read it here

But hey, Only a day late this time yay <:D

Thursday 8 October 2020

36th page

A new page finally!

Yay, look who's back! Or can you even recognise her after so long? :'''D

And I'm sorry I'm late again, this is probably going to be a theme for the rest of the year too x)

Paths of Avarnight is not the only thing I’ve been working on these past few months! Here’s a little sneak peek of this secret project, and I’ll tell more about it later~

I seriously LOVED doing that sun
