Replicant Works 3: Garage Kit & Character Figure (Extra Issue) by Various

Mon, 22 Jan 2007 09:55:00 -0500

My personal copy of this book is a rather curious thing- the book is #3 of the Extra Issues of Replicant, the cover itself has the girl and colors from the #3 Issue. However, for some odd reason I have yet to find out, the printing number says #4, and it claims to contain 2005-2006, when it really does contain 2001-2004.
Regardless of that, it's a great photographic book of Model Kits, PVC Statues.

Angelic Voice - Angel Sanctuary Postcard Book by Kaori Yuki

Sat, 11 Nov 2006 10:20:00 -0500

Not much to say, I think most of the images are from Kaori Yuki's other two artbooks. The cards are pretty, though, the art gorgeous as usual with Angel Sanctuary. Definitely worth it if you're a fan.

CLAMP in Wonderland by CLAMP

Sat, 11 Nov 2006 10:03:00 -0500

This artbook(?) is honestly quite a confusing thing to me. I couldn't seem to find any info of it online, neither did I find the ISBN, release date or even publisher, at that. So if anyone has any information, drop by my blog and drop me a comment on the latest entry, please. :3

Comic Front - The Gorgeous Artbook of Original Color 2 by Various

Sat, 11 Nov 2006 09:45:00 -0500

I don't really have many comments on this, basically, I bought it because of the Kyou Kara Maou and Tsubasa pictures, as I'm neither fan nor hate the rest of the series portrayed (some I don't even know, but found had pretty art anyway).
The art is lovely in all, though, full-pages, full color. Nothing special to it. It lacks Kuro Fay images though~ the Tsubasa section is mostly Shaoran and Sakura, with only one of Fay and Chii, and none of our favourite ninja.

Kaleido Scope by Kohime Ohse

Even if I'm not particularly fond of any of the games/series portraited in half of the illustrations on this book, the illustrations themselves make it worth it. The drawings and soft coloring used are lovely, and it has mostly full-pages illustrations, as well as some chibis. The comic at the end is quite funny too, even when I don't completly understand japanese.

Amorous Dancing EMBU by Tomomi Kobayashi

I don't think I'm really familiar with Kobayashi's works, however, upon seeing this artbook on the comic store, and at such “reasonable” price, I just couldn't help but get it.
The art through it is amazing. The colors soft but vibrant, and the b&w illustrations don't dissapoint at all. Each illustration seems to be unique and detailed to the brim, filled with men in feudal armours and clothes and some women aswell. It also contains a few “modern day” images.

RG Veda: Hiten Muma Seiden by CLAMP

Thu, 09 Nov 2006 19:35:00 -0500

I completly adore this artbook.
I'm biased, I love this series way too much as to find any fail on the artbook. The art is gorgeous, the series is amazing, and you just have to get it. I don't care if you don't like CLAMP!
I'm pretty sure the short manga about Ashura-ou's death explains quite a bit of everything.

Inoue Takehiko Illustrations by Inoue Takehiko

I'm not really a die-hard fan of Slam Dunk, but I do like Inoue Takehiko's art enough as to buy this artbook.
