Some artbooks Reviews and the Fever continues...

Journal Entry: Fri Jul 23, 2010, 1:03 PM



Hi all, since i was quite "fortunate" lately,
and this month was my birthday, i was doing an artbooks shopping spree~

Some of them were second hand, others buying online or pick up at kinokuniya/brass basah book store~

let me give you a quick review on some of them that already on my hands:

WARNINGGGGG!!!!!! IMAGES HEAVYYYYYYYYY!!!

J.C Leyendecker
hakuoki tea set

this book was bought second hands, i discovered this book from parka's blog===>[link] He sell it in quite a bargain and since i can't find in kino/OL store i decided to buy it from him directly

This sexy hard cover book have everything~ to be honest, at the very first time
, i only want to get it because of the eye candies (80% stuff inside is the painting of "extra ordinary gentlemens~") and after i see through, it was more then that~

All the art inside is really stunning, i love how Mr Leyendecker paint those clothes n fabric, those composition and body language and those art nouveau style was showering me with many brand new ideas, i will definelty treasure this book~!!


Turbulence By Storm Lion

HAH~ i was waiting for this book to come~ i know Storm Lion studio since a few years ago and admire their works, the founder of the studio was came to my Aussie's uni before and i was amazed with the works he showed to us, now i owned it~

even though the book is compiling on Singapore's studio only, i didn't regret. Mainly the book have featured their main artist as well as tons of amazing selected guest artist~ The book's atmosphere is so dark because 85% of paintings in here using surreal color pallete, but it's nice to see many different style and many different stroke altogether in one book, Go Strom Lion, wish i could join you in the future~


Apple Volume:6

Yesss, i collected all the apple artbook series, now the 6 edition just arrived and i picked it without think twice

hmm, to be honest, the style and the artworks compilation are nice as usual, but maybe they keep repeating the same concept over n over again, so i'm a bit boring in this 6 volume, i think it need to be more "shouting" but overall, i enjoy it~

Can't read the title

I got this book with a bargain price at kinokuniya~ this book was already piled up with old junks and it really dusty when i found it~

I KNOW MY EYES NEVER CHEAT ON MEEE~! The inside is absolutely BRILLIANT!! the oil paintings and those figures are trully dreamy and the detail of each brush was printed perfectly on the paper, and lot of pretty boys too~Ooohh.. i will keep judging the book by it's cover....

Ok, that's for now~
-------------------------

Let's go to second topic: My Supernatural fever hasn't been healed yet....i was like crazy doing that episodes marathon all the way, beside all my friends were laugh at me "Dude, where are u all this time? that show was started since 4-5 years ago and u just starting to loving it, NOW?" Ohh, a facepalm for my self........

So, if i suddenly shower you with "Tonz of nonsense stuff" please be patient with me ok? Coz usually i never make a tv show fanart before and i believe 90% of my watchers, watch me because my anime/manga fandom~ and now it's a bit different~

and stay tunned for "my" Dean this weekend:

Ho boyyy,suddenly i start to luv making those photo painting and can't stop~LoL

and.....huh?what My fav pair? hhhmmmmm let see, do they have any official hetero pairing.....?i believe: NO, right?

So my voice goes to Dean/Cass, Sammy also nice, but... they are brothers... soooo....(so WhAT? doesn't really matters,eh?wkwkwkw)

cheers~
