Amaranthine Project: Avatar

2012-01-25T18:32:00.000-08:00

I'm not sure where to even start with how much I appreciate all our fans who constantly ask about our comic, Amaranthine Project: Avatar (or at one point, simply known as Avatar). It's been a decade at least since we first started it and I honestly never expected such a loyal fanbase of awesome people to stick with us this long.  It's a big part of what continually motivates me to come back to Avi and work on it again.

We've received a lot of e-mails over the past few years in particular asking us about the status of the comic, and the short answer is: it's in limbo. We have not stopped developing or working on this comic, however, it is not something we can afford to do right now. Both of us work 14+ hour days, 7 days a week to make ends meet and it doesn't really leave us much if any time to work on much else. We can't afford to take any time off of working for other people to do this or we won't be able to survive, we can't even afford to heat our home (which really sucks in Canada).

However, despite all of this, there is hope for us and for this comic if our friends and readers are willing to help us out.

We are giving away lots of cool stuff and exclusive rewards to anyone who is willing to help us make this dream of ours happen.   If you guys stick with us just a little bit longer, I promise it will pay off.

Vesilica was a project that pitched a concept to a video game company which revolved around interactive story telling, problem solving, character developement, puzzle-platforming environments and engaging one on one combat. This image and mock-up cover was meant to be a teaser to the type of mood and feel the game would have. The illustration features the main character, Vesilica, riding into battle with a heard of cybernetic elk, the ominous skyscraper-trees rising out of the mist in the distance.
