The Legend of Korra: The Art of the Animated Series
review 1: Art books are wonderful things. Not only is the art wonderful but it's great to see into the process of creation for a movie or series. The art book in particular I'm talking about here is for the series “The Legend of Korra.” which in itself is the sequel for the excellent Avatar: the Last Airbender series.Owning the art book for the previous series I had a fairly good expectation for what this particular book would be like. And the book met my expectations. Like the book for the previous series this book is filled with early unused character designs, and information on the plot. Including plot points that could have been.The art itself is nice and colorful. Something expected from the series style. Even the unused design sketches are nice to look at. The final design... more drawings are also good for reference for fan artists.For the rest of the review and rating please check ou Musekickers Reading Place.
review 2: ARC from NetGalleyReally a very detailed and interesting look into the art behind The Legend of Korra. Lots of interesting early versions of characters, several character studies, and quite a few discussions on details (such as badges) I had missed while watching the series. There's even a fair bit of lore building, particularly as it relates to the recreation of the Air Norman culture. Paranoid anti-spoiler types beware: some of the notations identify which characters (some still unseen) will be major players in the upcoming second season. While it's certainly interesting for any fan of the series I'm not sure readers without an interest in recreating the art within will give it a re-read. less
