I need to start things off by saying that this is pure speculation, not based on any official company announcement, yet. Now that that disclaimer is out of the way, late yesterday after I broke the news here that Jersey Jack Pinball’s next pinball machine is based upon the James Cameron film series Avatar, the game’s likely designer Mark Seiden shared an interesting post on Facebook that said the following:
“There’s this cool artist that I think you should check out: https://www.leafaske.com/“
That’s all it said. The timing of this cryptic post is very interesting. It has made me, and a number of people who have reached out to me with links to the post (thanks folks) wonder if this is the artist for Jersey Jack’s Avatar.
Again I have no idea if Lea Faske is actually the artist for the game, but it certainly seems like she could be. That would be really cool because, and correct me if I’m wrong, I believe that it would be the first time in ages that a woman has done the art for a major pinball release. Previously Lea has done art for major projects like the mobile games Brawlhalla and Hearthstone.
Here’s a sample of some of the art from the webpage that he linked. It looks fantastic and I bet that her style would look super cool when applied to the world of Avatar.
