What's wrong with my avatar?! It is a bad ass cat in a suit of armour! What the hell more do you want from an avatar?! My characters are animals for the following reasons- 1) Harkovast is chock full of different cultures, each with their own religions, magic and world view. This would be seriously facking confusing to an outsider (my wife suffered through listening to me try to explain it for a long time before I started just drawing it). So if every culture is a different animal, it is easy to tell when we are seeing a new culture and which culture each person is. If Darsai are a different SPECIES to Tsung-dao, it is a lot easier to tell who is from where. 2) I didn't want to make wierd looking people with bits added on, and inventing whole knew animals is really really hard. So I jsut took real creatures and made them humanoid so everyone could very easily tell what everyone is meant to be. 3) The following shows were fackin awesome- Teenage mutant ninja turtles Animals of Farthing Wood and especially SWAT Cats! But if the avatar might be putting people off.....I am open to suggestions for what might be better! I think that Darsai has a cool expression though..... (Oh yeah, and massive thanks and grovelling for plugging my comic! Hugely appreciated!) "HOORAY! PLUGGING MY COMIC ON HERE FINALLY PAYS OFF!"

the problem was the avatar is low quality, so it looked like it wasnt even drawn half as good as it is.
i like the different species...specially since cats are the main, and rats or mice are the bad guys...

The quality is much better on DD forums, is just looks shit here because I copied it straight over. Doh! What kind of animal are those Nameless anyway?! Maybe we should have a pole?! Note that the giant Nameless does not have a snout, has a different style of armour and is about twice the size of the other ones. Makes you wonder.... "I NEED TO POST THE HARKOVAST MAP SOMETIME!"

We made some last minute changes to what the last page is going to be, so it is a tad delayed. Disaster not withstanding, it should be up to view tommorrow though! "APOLOGISE TO ALL HARKOFANS!"

I was unsure about Harkovast until I saw a bad guy bend down and simultaneously double-stab and pick up a good guy. I knew at that moment that Harkovast was one of the greatest things the internet could have ever given me.

I've had 540 views so far today, already an all time record. Sundays seem to be my best day. "GOD READS HARKOVAST!"
