The Shin Ultraman Design Works art book showcases the many splendid kaiju concept art pieces for Hideaki Anno's take on the iconic tokusatsu hero. Explore more in my review シン・ウルトラマン デザインワークス アートブック レビュー - https://t.co/AhFMpTV77d #artbook #blauereview
"Beware The Claw !" Immerse in the stories of Lobster Johnson, Mike Mignola's Hellboy universe spin-off series with this new hardcover (448 pages) omnibus edition, complete with a fantastic collection of prep art & sketches - https://t.co/jWwakrTE2W
Creature design drawings and maquette sculpts for the kaiju Gabora from the Shin Ultraman Design Works. I believe the illustrations are by Takayuki Takeya, based on original designs by Narita Toru. See more in my review - https://t.co/AhFMpTE45d
Writing the book review for Hayao Miyazaki's Shuna's Journey. It's been a while since I've read the book & I've forgotten just how stunning the illustrations are; you can pretty much skip my review and just go get a copy - https://t.co/n2wpU0iSp9

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
Hayao Miyazaki's self caricature as a pig riding in a stylish 3 wheeler (L), based on a photo taken by his late mentor, the veteran animator Yasuo Otsuka in 1993 (R). This illustration appeared in the Feb 94 issue of NAVI magazine.
