KICKSTARTER

The paypal store is now open! Here you can buy any tier that was on the kickstarter using Paypal. All stretch goal rewards count for these items.Shipping has been edited on there for our Canadian friends, so if you want to switch you can (though the extra money from shipping does count towards the final stretch goal and is greatly appreciated! So keep that in mind!) It will be open until July 8th.

UPDATE 1 - We hit our goal!!! 

UPDATE 2 

UPDATE 3

UPDATE 4 - Second to last stretch goal reached! 

I will add an extra, making of art section at the end of the book, a solid amount of pages full of sketches, ideas, old and new artwork, potential character and environment designs, and scribblings. I will also post a tutorial/video of my process permanently on the website so no one will ever ever ever have to ask me how I paint ever again. All backers 20$ and up get a special antique finish pin, showing you backed the very first kickstarter!

Thanks guys!! Lets see if we can make the final goal!!

Ava's Demon is my ongoing science fiction and fantasy, multimedia webcomic about a girl named Ava and the demon haunting her.

Well...ok...it's a bit more complicated than that. The demon might just be the ghost of an alien queen, Wrathia, seeking revenge on the one that destroyed her empire, a god-like figure named Titan. The story follows Ava as she makes her way across the universe, teaming up with the demon haunting her on a quest for revenge, while fighting her own inner demons along the way. I've been working on this story for quite some time...so this book is only the beginning! And I'm very excited to be able to share it with this project!!

The goal of my kickstarter is to raise 12k to publish at least 2000 copies of a 9''x 9'' hardcover, first edition book with the first 500 panels of this story for all the fans! It will be approximately 150-200 pages, 2 panels per page, in full color with broken down frames of all three chapter animations. If stretch goals are met, art and making of sections will be added to the back of the book!

All tiers $250 and above will have the back cover variant "PACT MAKER", with an official seal proving your dedication to my comic and will ONLY be printed for this kickstarter!

Also available to certain tiers are to-scale replicas of Ava's Heart Key: 3D printed in solid bronze-plated steel on a wearable leather necklace with a clasp.

Available to a lower tier is a plastic replica on the same type of necklace.

Nifty art rewards are being designed by myself and a few other official Ava's Demon artists!!

Available to higher tiers are sketches and portraits painted by myself! 

And at the $5000 dollar tier you get a statue of Ava, sculpted and 3d printed in gold-plated steel.

Looks like a bunch of the stretch goals are locked?!?!

 I will be able to DEDICATE ALL OF MY TIME TO AVA'S DEMON! I'll be able to update twice a week starting January 2014, Mondays and Thursdays. Some future animations will be partially 3D animated by myself. I will also be able to work full time on bringing you guys art, contests, better merchandise, convention visits, basically all the things that aren't possible for me right now because of situations in my life that are tying me down.

Aside from all that, you will also get an ocean of tears that unicorns will emerge from because I will cry massive amounts of magical tears for eternity out of the joy and happiness that reaching this stretch goal will bless me with.

After all, I've estimated my comic to be about 7000+ panels long, so I've gotta get cracking!!
