woww..he was so young!

I remember a lot of those pieces really clearly. He was an awesome artist, that's for sure!

Thank you everyone. Yes, Pupi was an incredible artist, but a great friend and mentor as well. We'll miss him... this is a very sad time for us

And yes, he was the art director on all of our projects, some of which are still unpublished; with the latest being the Prologue and Epilogue for Halo 4.

His personal works and his works with the Digic team will live forever..
Deep condolences Tam

so young indeed what happened?

vargatom · Nov 2012

He got seriously ill and after two years of fighting it finally claimed him... But he was working with us until the very end.

I see his bird family has already been posted, but my personal favorite image of his has always been this one.

tsabszy · Nov 2012

yeah, i love that one as well. it has a great humor and it's atmosphere is perfect. his works reflect a really clever and always busy thinking mind... inspirational!

btw i've recently seen the Halo 4 intro, endig, epilogue cinematics. congrats for the team!
truly inspirational stuff. Digic has always been making the best cinematics for games. it's on my personal top3 list with Blizzard cinematic team and Blur.
contunue to keep Digic among the best!

Peter Fendrik was the one whoms work made me dive into 3d, especially the Bird-Family. So far I wasn't aware that he passed away. Rest in peace Peter and thanks for the inspiration and your motivating work. You're were and will stay a big idol for me.
