Read it in Tapas or Webtoons as usual~!
ALSO! I feel so bad for poor Narya, their first line in this damn comic was how thirsty they were…. I feel like I’ve kept Narya dying of thirst since 2019 or something, even if it hasn’t been that long in the actual comic timeline xD
I'm sorry it took so long again, I'm sure you all had trouble sleeping all summer and autumn wating for these riveting results!
I finally managed to doodle up the results for my third(?) popularity poll from last spring! And what a surprise round it was! Maive who has dominated the chart all this time was nearly overthrown by the Voleking (though Now that I think about it the Living Shadow might’ve come close to toppling Maive from the throne of nro. 1 at one point 💦), and they ended up in a tie just at the end of the vote! Adal and Narya kept their spots. The one vote party was very lonesome this time with only Adder receiving a single vote :”(
But let’s see how next year goes now that the album is out! >:D
I added all my new stickers to my little Ko-fi shop UwU get them while the tiny stock lasts!
Also, I will not be adding Avar’yön Poluilla to that shop since it is 100 full colour pages = way too heavy for me to ship! I have a list of web shops selling it in the Paths of Avarnight page of this blog so you can order it via them ^^
I am redrawing some of my least favourite panels from the comic for the upcoming paper edition too! So not only will you get uncensored red paint, there will also be improved art ^-^
Let's see how many I've managed to finish before the release xD
Nargwhanal made it to the back cover :'''') But they'll be in the front one next time >:D
The fair is situated in Hotel Rantapuisto in Rastila, Helsinki and is open today 11-23 and tomorrow 11-17! The exhibition is in the hallway of Kauppasatama.
Tarinoita muinaisesta pohjolasta also has a table at the fair situated next to the Luoto-hall in the first floor of the venue. There will be all the comics and my Stella Matutina and Ave Päivätär prints and stickers available :D And also me! At random times xD
The Pillars of Heaven vol. 2 is finally for sale in my web shop <:D
https://ko-fi.com/haltijakapala/shop <– here!
I’m sorry for the wait, I’ve just been so busy you wouldn’t even believe… Anyway! This is a prime chance to obtain this little book, or both of the Pillars, if you haven’t yet! There’s no postage, not even internationally, since I’m sending them as regular letters! I’ll even slip a little bonus into all orders done before the end of 5th of October (of my timezone) <:D
For those of you who might be interested in obtaining my comics in person, I will be attending Oulu Comics festival and Museocon (in Tampere) this year still.
The Pillars of Heaven chapter 2 is ready! Another 12 pages of riveting accordion book comic action 😄
Where can I get this?!, I hear you asking! In Zine Fest at Helsinki Comic Festival on This Sunday, 17th of September! Me & Rikkisu are sharing table number 12 there ^^ The Pillars of Heaven ch.1, Fabulae, Haltijabot 3 and a myriad of our prints, stickers and postcards will also be available on that selfsame table~
Haha, no this is not a joke! I have another exhibition and it opened this weekend xD This time around it is a group exhibition arranged by Helsinki Comics Festival! I've got two pieces on display one from Paths and one from Mater Dei!
The venue is on Hämeentie 4, a shop called The Store and we're in the cellar of it. A huge space, I was very surprised when I went there for the first time. The exhibition is open every day 12-18 until the 23rd of September. A warm welcome to all ^^
My exhibition is finally open, and will be open until the 29th of September! The spot is Galleria Salmi located at the backend of Laajasalo library 😄 A warm welcome to all ^^
And thank you to @laremn for taking this pic since I was to busy goofing around yesterday to remember to take a single pic xD
I'm sorry to everyone, I know you were all just dying to run to see my exhibit the first thing tomorrow morning, but it won't open yet 😦 I've got myself a cold and I wasn't able to go and set up the exhibition today like I had originally planned 😦 I'll hopefully be well enough to do it on Monday! i'll let everyone know when everything is ready!
Thankfully Homer's been keeping me warm
It's probably my favourite time of the year, Ropecon time! This year around I'm back there as an artist too :D
Me & Rikkisu share a table at the Artists' Market on Friday, and Friday only, it being the 28th of July. The Trade Hall is open 15-21 on that day!
We both also have a few pieces up on display at the Art show, which is situated in the same hall but at the opposite end of it. These will be on display the whole weekend so you can enjoy our presence even without the table :D
Now I just need to frame the pieces....
I mean I've been working on this over a month and I still can't decide a proper name for it. But now I've got to let it go, since otherwise I'll just keep at it for the rest of the year...
But here they are, my two creatures, who will hopefully have another zine of them published in Zine Fest in September! Wish me luck x')
AND! I got a table for Saturday too at #finncon! Yay! BUT I will be there a bit late since I can’t afford to buy a new train ticket anymore xD so my table will be open ca.13.00 on Saturday, my apologies! On Sunday I will be there the whole day 😄
Slowly but surely
As a general announcement, I have three upcoming events!
1st: Finncon on Sunday 9.7. in Tampere University! The alley is open 10-17, no entrance fee
2nd: Ropecon on Friday 28.7. at Messukeskus in Helsinki! The Alley will be open 15-21, there will also be an entrance fee!
3rd: Zine Fest @ Helsingin Sarjakuvafestivaalit in Korjaamo, Töölö Sunday 17.9.!
I have new stuff upcoming to most of them so stay tuned :D
I would love to make a real comic about these lovely cat-elves, but when will I have the time…
Also there was a Mizane fan visiting our table at Hypecon! If you see this let me thank you again! It just really made my whole year to learn that someone out there remembers Mizane from the previous pieces I have done! Thank you ;;0;;
Here they are my newest batch of stuff! I’ve got new A3 & A4 prints and new postcards too! The sharpest eyed of you might spy a whole new piece amongst them >;3 it’s a piece I made for a zine that has yet to be published and I got tired of waiting and decided to make prints of it now… come see the piece in full at Hypecon in Hyvinkää this weekend! We'll e there on both Saturday and Sunday.
4th chapter begins! We're back in the dark tower! How exciting! and soon hopefully we'll be outside of it finally 😄
I'm sorry for the late update, unfortunately for the summer the updates will be a bit more sparse since I've got a lot of things I need to get done, but they're all really important for Avarnight! So please bear with me :''') ❤️
oh, and I'll be in Hypecon this weekend too! see you there!
My lovely elf is finally done! He will be a prismatic sticker if everything goes as I hope >:3c will post proper pictures then. Swipe for textless version!
This guy is Daenthia, a high elf exile with a very high self esteem! The little thingie in the corner is me xD I Love Elves.

yet :D
This page also marks the end of the 3rd chapter. 4th Chapter is on its way, but there's a few things I still need to focus on so there might be a slight gap before I can start it, I'm sorry for the wait in advance and hope it will not be a long one.
Another page is here, readable in the usual spots, Tapas and Webtoons!
And the popularity poll is also still live for a good few weeks, so please vote if you haven't already :D
Whew, I felt like I might not make it before the end of the month, everything was just absolute mayhem for the past few weeks, but I made it in the end! Yay!
ALSO: Kauhucon this weekend, hope to see you guys there ^^
I'm sorry for the wait! I've finally uploaded all my new stickers into my Ko-Fi shop ^-^
So, if you missed our table in Tampere kuplii and/or won't be able to come to Kauhucon in Helsinki 22th to 23rd of this month, here's your chance to get them! There is no postage and for orders of more than three postcards and/or stickers I will include a extra postcard free of charge to the package
Here are the rest of my stickers! Stella Matutina and Päivätär are craft paper stickers and the two shiny knives are metal stickers! These will all be available in Tampere kuplii ! Where me & rikkisu are sharing a table in the dealer hall! So look for us there I’ll upload the leftovers to my Ko-fi shop afterwards ^^
The craft paper ones are, as you might’ve guessed, paper so they are not moist resistant unlike the metal stickers which you can use like any other vinyl sticker!
