Range Murata's pencil sketches are 🔥🔥🔥 - these are from his Prismtone art book ( 2010 ) - https://t.co/xoPSW8x0m7 Amazon page - https://t.co/wyDfJvzFXN #artbook #illustration #conceptart #村田蓮爾
With hearty influences from the tokusatsu world of Ultraman and kaijus as well as Lovecraftian horror, James Harren's ( BPRD, Rumble ) Ultramega comic is a great read topped by splendid art work. See more in my review - https://t.co/P7TlnsNtUt #comics #illustration #blauereview
Panels from one of the omnibus short stories in Katsuhiro Otomo's Goodbye Japan ( Complete Works Edition ), circa 1977/8 when the artist was around 23. Otomo's adept skill in framing/composition as well as choice use of "lens size" really liven each image. (1/2)
Goodbye Japan is an ominibus of 13 short stories drawn by AKIRA creator Katsuhiro Otomo from 1977/78, when he was 23/4 yo. These hard to find pieces are now collected in the new Complete Works Edition さよならにっぽん 大友克洋全集 コミック レビュー - https://t.co/6axEOVfX3e
Empowered by the telekinetic abilities of Kyoko ( no. 25 ), including teleportation, Kay battles Tetsuo atop Akira's massive cryogenic chamber. See this and more in the AKIRA storyboard book (vol 2) - https://t.co/C03vOCTJmf #大友全集 #絵コンテ

Otomo's insanely strong cinematic vision is manifestly clear when you look at how tight his storyboard drawings compare to the finished shots in the film. The storyboard books are a veritable treasure trove on how he composed his shots - https://t.co/5gApwv3uW6
One of the most unintentionally funny Amazon reviews I've ever read was one left for the Ghost In The Shell genga/layout book (2014), where the reviewer commented that it was a "half-a**ed coloring book, most of the drawings are incomplete" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 - https://t.co/4rXLLv7bUm
Heads up - a 650 pages whopper of an art book will be released on Dec 2nd collecting layouts+genga from Katsuhiro Otomo's AKIRA, as part of Complete Works. This new book will be like a jumbo edition of the Akira Animation Archives (2002 - image below) - https://t.co/qqLsxpNF0n
One of the many reasons why Katsuhiro Otomo's Akira manga is so visually impactful is because of the cinematic framing & composition. Otomo is as much a film director/cinematographer as he is a manga artist - https://t.co/tIhqt3L6gY
Not entirely convinced the storyboards that Otomo drew for Akira are detailed enough, I mean look at this shoddy work... 🤣😂 Just teasing of course ! My review for the storyboard book ( Vol 1 ) is almost done. You can also just grab a copy here - https://t.co/JZIKUt83AV
My treasured ( and very yellowed out ) Akira storyboard books, first published back in 1988. Every frame is a work of art. Also, Kodansha should really consider a reprint of these as they would still sell like hotcakes アキラ絵コンテ集 - https://t.co/ipIjvRp1zO #anime #animation
ICYMI - A whole book dedicated to the detailed concept art sketches by Mitsuo Iso ( Denno Coil ) for anime films like Ghost In The Shell, Magnetic Rose, Roujin Z, Evangelion, MS Gundam & more. See more in my review - https://t.co/EDV5W53Gmu
