Exclusive Rise Of The Guardians art

0 min read

A quick heads up that me and two of the Visual Development artists  (WoonYung Jung and Perry Maple) on the Guardians movie have been working on some special, short stories that will appear exclusively online. Can't find them in the Art Of book! We were happy that the studio let us play around a little bit longer within the world of Guardians. Each story will have a different visual style. This is the first. I'll update the journal with links to the future ones as they are posted. http://dreamworksanimation.tumblr.com/post/35788579009/how-did-jack-frost-learn-to-fly-heres-learning

Unfortunately, due to daytime work, I cannot take requests. Sorry.

Hey there, I've been following your work since I was in college, about the time you started up your Water Tribe comic in 2007 (on my old DA)- and I just wanted to say: thank you.

Seeing you go so far with a fun, interesting fanwork- for literal years, has been such a huge inspiration to me. I'm starting up my own fancomic based on Pokemon Legends Arceus and whenever I start feeling a bit silly for putting so much effort into a fanwork- I think of you, and your work. And just how much seeing it means to me- and I keep going.

Thank you, again- for sharing your work with us- it means a lot.
