Here are the most viewed posts in 2013.

Since I reviewed a lot of books. I've split the posts in two to categories, the non-book reviews post and the book reviews

Interestingly, the first post below about Urban Sketches was written in 2011. The buying guides are also very popular, even more so than some of the more popular artbooks.

Happy New Year to all readers here!

Wow. I was just looking at my Amazon profile and found out that I've reviewed 166 items with the majority being artbooks, of course, in 2013. That's quite a number. I did not expect there to be so many artbooks around. Amazing.

Oh well, onwards to 2014! More to come.

I'll write something about notable upcoming artbooks to expect in 2014, but you can get a sneak peek first with the Upcoming Artbooks list that I update constantly.
