Book Review: ELEMENTAL 3: The World's Best Autodesk Art

ELEMENTAL 3 is created in collaboration with Autodesk to showcase digital art created from their Autodesk software.

The gallery of art featured is breathtaking. 246 images are selected from over 1800 entries, with contribution all over the world. I can only imagine the difficulty it is to pick the one top Master piece among each category.

The categories included are Architecture Exterior and Interior (Public & Residential), Architecture Reconstruction, Environment, Characters, Creatures, Robotic/Cyborg, Transport, Product Design, Still Life, and Abstract.

About half of the book are on architecture and interior design renders. They are absolutely beautiful, more so than some of the architecture books I've seen. It will be a fantasy to be able to visit the houses and cities as shown in the book.

The other half is mainly on characters, still life, vehicles and other scenes. Every piece is visually stunning. There are some pretty cool concepts but this isn't a concept art book dedicated to any particular category. At times, you'll wish that there's more included in the category.

ELEMENTAL 3 is a wonderful showcase of artistic creativity, technical execution and, of course, a good look at what Autodesk can do - actually other software are also used.
