A few years went by and we tried to catch up and I was floored how far he had came in the last 5 years. What prompted me to get him on was not only his recent clients (including Blizzard) but the fact so many people were talking about his dedication to style. Henrik's voice in the art world is one of the most genuine I've ever seen and it was an absolute pleasure to talk to him again.
