Description Here we are. Six years, two published albums and nearly 300 pages of comics have finally led to the moment when Ari Halikko, a Finnish chieftain and warrior, and Ivarr the raven, a leader of a band of most notorious warriors of the Baltic sea, meet face to face.

10 pages to ink, and then I'm done. It has been a long road.

 My money is on long-hair; he looks like a man who takes his business seriously and the other fellow is already bleeding (blood in the eye isn't the most helpful flesh wound!). 

 By the way, congratulations on completing so extensive a project - as a man with designs on becoming an author myself, ambitions perpetually undercut by my habit of hopping from topic to topic at whim, one can only salute your commitment and the talents which you have supported with it.

 Out of curiosity, may one please ask if you are planning on taking a rest or if you are already lining up your next project?

I'm always planning the next project Next spring there is three albums of comics coming out: Pagans and Mercenaries are both written and drawn by me, and then there is Foederati, which is only illustrated by me. All in all, some 384 pages of comic. It was a busy year!

For the next year I have pending something like four different ideas for a comic album... time will show what becomes of them.

 The problem with ideas is that they're a little like any other heady brew - the more of them you have, the less able you are to focus on any one of them (or much of anything else, for that matter). 

 Please allow me to wish you the Very Best of Luck with your forthcoming projects and please allow me to wish you a Very Happy Birthday to boot (when the day comes).

Well, I thought like that about ten years ago... After that I finished my first 60 page comics and kept on going

 I always have a thousand different ideas going on in my head. Most of the time they brew in peace, merge with other ideas and at some point form a cohesive story, and then I start to draw them. It's most likely the same with these ideas, I'll get them done.

 My motto for creating comics is: Whatever you start, finish it. Don't start to look for a better idea, don't wait that you achieve the great enough skill at drawing, don't hesitate. Finish what you are doing and then look for the next one, improve your skills by creating new finished works. So far it has worked remarkably well

 As anyone who beholds your art can surely see. 

 By the way, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
