Beautiful artwork, however...
Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2017
I absolutely love the art inside the book. I love the cover (front and back) as well. I enjoyed looking through the concept art seeing how certain characters and alien races developed. The commentary was also insightful.However, I'm not sure what happened during the shipping process. I bought new, and when it arrived, in a box, the plastic seal was broken and several pages have been bent and even slightly ripped in a small part of the back of the book. It's a minor issue and has nothing to do with the contents of the book.

This IS an art book, and whether or not you appreciated the game is irrelevant. This art book is gorgeous and the colors are amazing.
It possesses what I EXPECT from an art book: concept art. Not as much as I'd like, as I like to see the entire development of a character, but it does show the development. For instance, the character concept for Cora in the book is dramatically different than what made it into the final game.
Where this book also shines is the over-all development for the Kett is really shown well here. A few pages are totally dedicated to the development of Kett and Angara.
It possesses concept art for armor as well. Not much, but it does explain the artists' thinking when planning out the armor.
This brings me to another major thing I want in every art book: artist commentary. This book has it, and that's of vital importance to me, personally.
If you collect art books or just like to see the development process, this book is a must-have.

This art book has so much game art from the game and the design process. It’s really only interesting to fans of the game. I enjoy learning about the game design process and looking at the art and the many different iterations the team went through to get to the final game. If you didn’t like the game you probably won’t be interested in the book, however... if you like the game, this book is a nice addition.

This is a grate book for anyone looking to add syfi art to there collection.
That being said It may have limited references for those who don't understand how to paint digitally granted to the average costumer Its a grand collection of environmental art. But for people who like the weapons,tools and very ruff sketch work that goes into making these wonders is only a small part of the book. Most of the work is full painted work not line work or step by step making of pics with few exceptions.
what you do get is multiple pages of fully painted landscapes,outfits and even small notes from the developers giving you nuggets of incite into the works on page from waterfalls to icecaps to ash covered sky's atop rivers of lava this book will Inspire anyone with a eye for art.
The book itself is a hard cover with glossed pages and is ruffly as thick as a Nintendo 3ds xl so your money is not going to waste if you chose to pick up a copy. Just be warned if you were looking for drawing references this might not have everything your hopping for.

-Very good reference for aspiring/hobbyist artists/video game artists or character designers, especially if weak in the sci-fi department.
-Won't make you a Bungie artist. (Bungie games are bootyful.)

Seeing the evolution of the concept art is worth the price, however as per my headline there are few areas that do not have enough content. With all of the various firearms new and old, it is surprising that there is only one page (two if you count melee weapons) of weapons. For the book's faults, I would still suggest this to fans of Mass Effect and of sci-fi art at large.

Simply the most gorgeous book of technocratic sci-fi art I have ever see! Lots and lots of illustrations! Wonderful print quality and page size!
You do not need to be a fan of Mass Effect games to appreciate these gorgeous illustrations!

The artwork in this book is fantastic. I love seeing concept art and this didn't disappoint in that respect.
To me Mass Effect is one of the most underrated Sci-Fi universes around and the game itself is much better than its lukewarm reception would suggest. The artists deserve a huge amount of credit for what they have created.
My only negative, which I did consider taking a star off for, was the lack of pages on the remnant. Don't quite understand that as they were stunning in the game.

Beautiful artwork. Exactly what I came to expect from Dark Horse Comics!
The print is perfect and that new art book smell. Mmmmm...
PS. Only problem I have with it is, that it has 2 times less pages than say the Fallout 4 Art of book. C'mon I NEED MORE ART!
