RIP.

This man was fantastic and admirably ambitious. I absolutely loved Red vs Blue too.

Can't say I have ever heard of him but this is indeed very tragic, especially at such a young age. R.I.P

I started to pursue a career in animation for several reasons. He was one of them. He'll truly be missed.

Incredibly sad to hear this news, way too young, he inspired so many people with his creative enthusiasm and dedication to his art. RIP. Hope his loved ones are okay and his fans remember him for a long time, and also new people get to experience his work for the first time too.
