Probably won't be doing to much work for LEGO that you actually SEE. However, they're keeping me busy with more "behind the scenes" stuff, so you see the results of my work. I'm doing a lot of storyboards for TV commercials, web and TV stuff, doing layouts for box designs (so I draw what the box picture looks like and the photographer sets it up based on my layout. Most of the last half 2011 Star Wars stuff was done by me. Just did some 2012/13 stuff last week) and some preliminary set designs (some of the new 2012 Star Wars was done by me, too).
Currently, the DC Ultrabuild comics was written and pencilled by me (in a hotel room at Brickworld last year!), and the comic in the Bat Cave set was pencilled by me. However, the Marvel Ultrabuild comics were written, pencilled, inked and coloured by me.
Have to say, that while I think the Ultrabuild character sets are weird, they're actually kinda fun! I had the prototypes since last summer to draw from, but they were kinda fun to play with. I think if you're already in to Hero Factory, you'll like them. If you're not, then you might be best off to avoid them. However, they're amazingly posable!
