Fun, wacky and more fun,

This review is from: Darkstalkers Tribute (Paperback)
Darkstalkers Tribute is the second tribute volume, the first being the Street Fighter Tribute (SFT) -- which is awesome. This time round, it brought in over 2000 submissions, more than SFT's 1300! This is a paperback without a dust jacket and there are 296 pages. The paper is slightly thinner than SFT but doesn't affect the art book in anyway. The colour reproduction is still brilliant. With so many artists contributing, the variety of style is amazing, of course. Some of the styles included are manga, caricature, 3D, chibi, game art, vector and many others. There's even a very sexy sculpted model of Morrigan. Not just style, some of the ideas and concepts are really fun. There are illustrations of Darkstalkers when they are old but still fighting, Baby Bonnie Hood with mecha enhancements, Transformers-style and other wacky stuff. Looks like everyone spent a lot of time on their work. Every illustration is captioned with the artists and their websites, which opens up more avenues for exploration if you like the artist's work you see. It's another great tribute, highly recommended to character designers, fantasy art and Darkstalkers lovers. I wonder what tribute Udon will come up with next. (More pictures are available on my blog. Just visit my Amazon profile for the link.)

Very Much Worth the Money,
This review is from: Darkstalkers Tribute (Paperback)
As a tremendous fan of the series, I highly recommend this book. Not just for fans, but even people who aren't familiar with the series or who just love horror and fantasy. I showed it to my family and they were absolutely blown away with the quality of the art in this book. I even inspired one of my cousins to seek out prints of all of the art pieces! She's become quite a fan of the series =]. Although I didn't purchase the soft cover (I have the hardback), and though it was about $60 more than this version, I can completely say that it was worth every single penny to own such a delightful book that is an ode to one of my favorite series and titles in all of media.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Darkstalkers Tribute (Paperback)
I love Darkstalkers and I was really excited to find the art book online. I tried quite a few book stores and comic book stores and either I could never find it or they were all damaged. This one was in perfect condition! :)
