No more "Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends".
All fun jobs must come to an end. Now that I've wrapped on the final episode of "Foster's" (the show is ending after 6 seasons), it's time to move on to my next gig... and it's a whopper! I got lucky enough to land a sweet job as a storyboard artist at Dreamworks! I started a few weeks ago, hence the lack of posts, and it's already turning out to be a great place to work. I'm working under head of story Dave Pimentel on the upcoming movie "How to Train Your Dragon" which is pretty much like a dream project for me! I won't be able to show any work for this for quite awhile but I'll have plenty of news soon about my book, "Seaweed and the Cure for Mildew". Exciting times!!!

Whoa! congrats on your new gig! I'm sure you'll do a great job there as well.
That is awesome Ben... I am so happy for you, and for us, as movie viewers.
sad to see foster's go, but it had a hell of a great run. you can't ask for much more than 6 awesome seasons.
congrats on the DW's job! im looking forward to the book!
ben! i need C080S123_456 and a full turn of Eduardo in a tutu!! could you get it to me by Monday? haha jk. i hope you're having a blast at Dreamworks!!
Foster's has been fantastic. Best of luck to you at Dreamworks, and I can't wait for SEAWEED!
But where do imaginary friends go when they have been canceled?
I believe Foster's marks the end of the Cartoon Network We've all come to love. It was a good show and congrats on the new job.
hi, exellet drawings! congratulations for your new work, I guess is going to be great a fun to do. I have worked with CN a little, and fosters are my favorite. wish you the best luck from argentina!
Congratulations!
Ben,
That's huge news! Congrats. I can't wait to see all the stuff you can't show us, and also to pick up your book in San Diego.
Ciao,

Hi Ben,
Congrats on the new gig! I'm sure you will knock they're socks off.
I saw that your last posted work was done with a cintiq and Sketchbook Pro. I just got my first Cintiq (wsx20) and have been playing with Sketchbook pro a bit. I was wondering if you have any advice on workflow or program settings that you find to be useful. Thanks for your time.
Peace
Mike
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! damn YOU Cartoon Devils!!
Hi Ben! Foster's is not the same without you! Enjoy the free lunch at DW, hehe!
Man it's a shame to see such a cool show come to an end, but good luck with the new gig dude!!
Sad news about Foster's but congrats on your new gig @ Dreamworks-sounds like fun!
Wishing you all the best in your new position and really looking forward to seeing "How to Train Your Dragon" when it comes out.
Congratulations, Ben! All the best in your new gig.

Looking forward to your new work, Ben! Great to read you landed somewhere else!
amazing! i went to Dreamworks to visit a friend and check out the studio...ahh, its the place i wanna be! Good luck and congrats thats so rad!
It's so sad Foster's has ended. It was my favourite cartoon show.
Crap I thought this was a bold cross over with the Ghostbusters franchize. OH well... that was a great show! Best of luck on the new DW gig!
Congrats Ben! I know you'll do an AMAZING job there at the Dream-Maker! You are the best! I have your General Grievous as a memento from CN! hehe
Dude, Congrats On DW. Thats Awesome.
I Am VERY VERY EXTREMELY CAN'T EVEN XPLAIN HOW SAD I AM that Fosters Is Gone. That Was One Of My Favorite Shows. Every Friday, or thursday I would Watch It.
I Have every Figurine, T-Shirt
Key-Chain, Pin, DVD, etc. there is of Fosters. I Hope Meybe Some1 Could Pick It Up. Its A Great Show.
Have Fun, Good Luck.

THIS SUCKS! congrats on the new job and all, but i will say it: FOSTERS WAS THE BEST CARTOON EVER TO AIR! it made me so sad that i cried, and PLEASE tell me that this is some sort of sick joke, and you are really planning another season, right? Bloo reguard Q kazoo must LIVE! PLEASE, i am begging you to reconsider, i mean really it is the best cartoon after all, (second is flapjack)
Movie was alright but I would rather have fosters home for imaginary friends. But maybe 1 new episode every year. I'm addicted and still want more.
