Fine Art: Terminal Cancer Isn’t Your Everyday Fantasy Setting

David Cumbo is a veteran concept artist who has been at Ratchet & Clank and Resistance developers Insomniac Games for the past seven years. But that’s not his only work.

For a while now he’s also been spending his spare time creating Dreamside, a universe based on Sarah, a young girl dying of terminal cancer who manages to open a gateway to another world.

Originally conceived as a screenplay for an animated film, Cumbo has since decided to turn it into a trilogy of comic books, which he’s also animating into “videobooks“.

You can read more about Dreamside here, and see more of Cumbo’s work at his personal site.
