Book Review: 鋼人(HAGANE BITO)―森下直親画集 Art of Naochika Morishita

鋼人(HAGANEBITO)―森下直親画集

鋼人(HAGANE BITO)―森下直親画集 is the art book collecting the illustrations of Naochika Morishita. He's a Japanese artist that does a lot of work featuring mechas. Title of the book actually translate directly to "steel man" or "man of steel".

Here's the list of titles featured:

Gundam and Votoms take up almost half of this 130-page art book. The variety is great. The art is beautiful and detailed. On the metal robots are the dirt, dents, textures and in some cases oil and grease. I'm always amazed at how artists can do such technical drawings. There's an interview with Naochika Morishita but too bad there's no tutorial.

This book is for the mecha fans.
