More great behind the scenes info..., April 14, 2008
This book, much like the original AVP art book, is perfect for anyone who finds the process of monster making fascinating as well as the movies they inhabit.
Very cool behind the scenes art, exposition, and photography illustrates the creative process that brought the creatures to life. A must for any fan of either series, or monster fans in general.

Great behind the scenes title, May 15, 2011
This review is from: Aliens Vs. Predator: Requiem: Inside the Monster Shop (Paperback)
I loved the first one, and I loved the second one. It's mindless entertainment, I agree, but seeing all the creativity and work that goes into making the creatures seem life like is amazing. I liked this as much as the first title, The Creature Effects of ADI.

This message is for people looking for the "Alien Race" art book published by Design Studio Press. Amazon is having some problem listing the book so you're seeing the wrong review from another book.

Below's the review for "Aliens vs. Predator Requiem Inside the Monster Shop".
If you enjoyed the first making-of book Aliens vs Predator: Creature Effects of ADI, this book has plenty to offer.
Included are hundreds of photos and captions detailing how scenes in the movie were shot, such as what's used on location. This book is like a production diary explaining the things that happen during shooting.
The second half of the book is more interesting. There are sketches, photos and miniatures showing how the creatures and weapons in the movie were made. The photos are high resolution and zoomed in close to show subtle details.
There are captions all along, same goes for every page of the book. It's an incredibly in depth look behind the scenes.
(More pictures are available on my blog. Just visit my Amazon profile for the link.)
