DrGravitas Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Just recently acquired the art book for the beautiful (but brutally unfair) game Alien: Isolation. The art is absolutely sublime and so detailed. You can really see how much work the artists put into it and the text provides some insights into their creative process. I love a good art book and videogame art books can be especially beautiful, like this one or Mass Effect, or The Order: 1886. What art books (videogame or otherwise) do you treasure? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endless/Nameless Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 The "Art of Zootopia" book. If I had it..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Doggo Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I'm on an Alien Isolation binge right now, I'd love to get my hands on the art book. Another art book I want is Darkest Dungeon's, but that's not out yet I don't think. I really like the Mignola-like style. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clove Darkwave Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 This book here isn't necessarily an art book, but it does have some wonderful photos and hilarious doodles and other artsy bits: I love showing this book to people, it's never what they expect it to be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vae Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I have the Mass Effect artbook. I'd like more, but money. Particularly the Metal Gear artbooks by Shinkawa. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrishaCat Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 The Alien series has always had such interesting artwork. Its gorgeous and its awesome you have that! And yes! I have quite a few artbooks that I'm particularly fond of. Little Tail Bronx Archives 1: Bluesky (Solatorobo artbook), Little Tail Bronx Archives 3: Starlet (Solatorobo artbook), Hyrule Historia (Legend of Zelda artbook), and The Kemono Book (general Japanese furry artbook). Above all else I love my Solatorobo artbooks though. They are full of such gorgeous artwork and go into great detail on the world of the game. There's so much lore put into it its incredible the amount of time and effort that was had for it. Each book is 300+ pages in size and there are three of them total! (I only have two though) Its a shame I can't read it though. Almost all of it is in Japanese, with a few bits in French and English here and there. I intend to get the Valkyria Chronicles artbooks someday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#00Buck Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 I love art books. I have to resist them. They are expensive and I know I'd look at them for a few hours and then they'd sit on a shelf collecting dust forever. So I look at them at shows and conventions but I stick to buying original art instead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanna show us some things you have? At current count I have 205 pieces of original art from comic book and furry artists. The vast majority is comic book art. I'm waiting on a piece from Furnal Equinox and another one from the last Comic Con I went to. I'll be getting more art at TCAF this weekend. Maybe I'll show some of the new pieces off. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endless/Nameless Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Not an art book, but this seems like a good place to share the print I got from my favorite webcomic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
