Avalanche Software Art Blog

The official, unofficial blog of Avalanche Software employees. Avalanche is a game development studio. We created the Tak and the Power of Juju property for Nickelodeon and we were recently acquired by Disney. We are currently creating new properties and developing games based on Disney Feature Animation films. This blog is a vehicle to help keep us creatively fresh and help us sharpen our skills... but mostly for fun.

Cate the Snow Queen Ice Princess thingy
