Emergency comic update 4

That concludes the updates for now, but be sure to stay tuned for a status update detailing everything that happened and what my plans are now!

Since @avaniacomic was nuked out of nowhere, and I'm still waiting on support to get to my ticket, I'm posting the new pages I was planning to here instead, at least until I get the main comic back up again.

I'm also been rebuilding World Of Avania on ComicFury ( https://avania.thecomicseries.com ), and it is now using the regular worldofavania.com URL since @avaniacomic is still out. Depending on how things go, I may just make the ComicFury site my main platform, since it'll probably be more secure than using tumblr as a CMS, and it allows me to customize the pages to a greater degree while largely retaining all the features I wanted.

Realized I never reblogged these latest @avaniacomic updates to @tristikovart... Better late than never!

Babe, wake up--New birb just dropped!

Got home late after 4th of July fireworks the other night, and I figured I wasn't going to feel like working on comic backgrounds, so I tried sketching something with Chasse, but I ended up feeling inspired to finally make a serious start at creating my own male rozenich OC!

I've had a lot of fun drawing Chasse over the years now since my friend @alfafilly came up with a Viktoria-inspired rozenich for me, and I've drawn some of her interactions with Filly's own OCs in their original setting... I have a somewhat developed backstory for Chasse now, but in order to expand it more I felt I should have a few more rozenich OCs of my own. And of course just designing characters is fun to do on its own merit! Especially when it comes to very colorful and varied species like this, versus the more uniform setting of my Avania comic.

Now, I wish I had more time to pursue all of my art projects at once, but I think it's good to always have a few irons in the fire so to speak, as it helps keep me creating things regardless of how motivated I'm feeling on a given night... And it gives me more story and worldbuilding to mentally chew on for the times that I can't draw or write!

*whispers*: Um… Viktoria your bra strap is showing.

Normally I try to prioritize answering older asks first (albeit as is feasible), but this one was rather topical this month--in more ways than one!

Emergency comic update 2

Since @avaniacomic was nuked out of nowhere, and I'm still waiting on support to get to my ticket, I'm going to post the new pages I was planning to here instead, at least until I get the main comic back up again.

I've also started developing a rebuild of World Of Avania on ComicFury ( https://avania.thecomicseries.com ), which I plan to shift the comic's URL to if @avaniacomic is still out. Depending on how things go, I may just make the ComicFury site my main platform, since it'll probably be more secure than using tumblr as a CMS, and it allows me to customize the pages to a greater degree while largely retaining all the features I wanted.

R-R-RHYS VIKT... nah just kidding!

I'll keep the title, but it's been a minute since I posted the previous PASWG-inspired chibis. I did draw this along with the others though, so while I will probably draw more characters in this style as a fun diversion, these here are part of the original batch!

Avaniacomic blog sudden disappearance

Still haven't got beyond the initial acceptance email for my support ticket, but after doing some reading on r/tumblrhelp, I'm assuming that @avaniacomic got nuked by automatic spam filtering for some reason after I made some updates to the pages.

I've used the same custom webcomic theme for almost 8 years, and I don't think it contains any redirects, but it seems like side blogs getting nuked after saving edits is unfortunately fairly commonplace... Good news is that it seems like it should be recoverable, just a matter of time for support @staff to look into it.

Even if I can't get @avaniacomic / worldofavania.com restored soon, I'll post the new pages here on @worldofavania and also on my DA and FA pages.

TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES

@avaniacomic blog (the comic itself, and what worldofavania.com points to) disappeared at some point after midnight tonight, and I have no idea why or what is going on. Sent a support ticket in. Hopefully it can just be restored, but I'll update when I hear anything back. Thanks!

My Easter tradition is drawing bunny pinups. What's yours?

Chapter 18 Begins April 5th!

After looking at the cover for Avania #9 for months, it's finally time to crack into this issue! As with the last few updates, this update will be about one half of the chapter (with this installment being shorter and the next one being longer).

I'd love to be posting full chapters again, but time is still not quite so abundant that it is feasible to do so in anything approaching regularity. Progress is progress though, so I am glad to be moving the story forward in any case!

Little chibi-esque illustration I did alongside the PASWG-style drawings of my Avania OCs, since the cartoon proportions ended up being fairly close to the regular Star Fox characters, and despite being hooked on the game and official comics since the beginning, I had never drawn any fanart for the series!

VALEN & EISERNE

V-V-VALEN EISERNE

V-A-L-E-N E-I-S-E-R-N-E

NEW!

(While chipping away at Avania comic pages I watched the new season of Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt and I got inspired to try something radically different than my usual art... I guess my regular style would work for the transformation sequences? Kinda ended up being more chibi / SD than strictly PAWSG animation style but I'm happy with the result!)

(Even though Valen and Eiserne aren't zoomers, Valen could absolutely vibe with Divine as a theme song.)

Hope this one strikes your fancy!

I felt inspired to do a Valentine's day picture this year, but it was last minute so I opted to make a finished version of a rough sketch from 2019... 

You could say I had put a pin in it.

Happy New Year! / Update

Whew, 2025 is done. My days always feel long now but the last few years have felt as though they've gone by so quickly. A lot of life happened in that short span of time, and this period of change is still ongoing. In spite of how busy I've been, and how glacial progress on Avania has been, I'm still glad to be moving it forward--however slowly.

I'm half way done with the next update, which, when including the already posted Issue 9 cover, will constitute half of the first chapter. I'm really looking forward to the second half of this upcoming chapter too, as it packs more action and drama than has typically been seen up to this point! (The issue's cover should give you some idea of context.)

As usual, I thank everyone for their support, comments, and questions, as it is all encouraging to see, read, and answer. I will continue with Avania Mail comics and side art as time and inspiration allow, and of course I also hope to increase the pace of comic production as much as is possible.

Thank you for following Avania, and watch out for more updates as we get into this new year!
