my girlfriend bought me this as a birthday present, and its without a doubt one of the prettiest books i have seen on the shelfs. this is a complete runthrough of the award winning game okami, from preliminary sketchs through to final production prints. its amazing.

this is another great book, although i really like this one because paul kidby's drawing style is so different. it looks like a very 'british' way of illustrating characters. theyre almost characateurs.

this is an amazing book...my initial reaction to opening its pages was staring jaw open in awe of the incredible amount of work and spent on the contents. even if you arent a fan of manga you should be able to appreciate the amazing workmanship of katsuhiro otomo. one of the best background artists ive ever seen.....period

.....books:D

hmmmm......?

ok, so keeping the blog updated didn't go quite as well as i had planned lol. it kind of slipped to the back of my mind until i realised i gotta show my tutors what i do in my spare time. I am a lol cow milk me plz. anyway.....ill just post up some of my doodles and explain what they represent to me^^peace out
