David Cumbo is a veteran concept artist who has been at Ratchet & Clank and Resistance developers Insomniac Games for the past 7 years. He is one of those extreme talents and is not applying his trade to story books, and motion pictures.
Some time ago he enlisted my help with a story concept for a series of animated e-books he's calling DREAMSIDE, the first of which is coming due soon. It's the uplifting story of a child's search for meaning amidst a deadly disease.
The story and his art are truly amazing so I'm glad he's given me permission to share his project with you.
