Thus far it has been featured in the November issue of Artforum, The Globe and Mail, Now Magazine and, Akimblog. 'Twilight Avenger' will also feature as the cover image for Adbusters in the not-so-distant future.

"This painstaking frame-by-frame animation belies the almost convincing natural setting and leaves us to wonder, Is the green stag real or a CGI creature worthy of a summer blockbuster?" Now Magazine
