Frazetta Talk

[TNovak]

David Fisher is doing the paint master for the Quarantine Studios DDIII. There are a lot of great painters but to me David is the absolute best. I had planned to pass on that one as I already have the one previously done pretty well in the same scale but man now I may have to get it especially if it is a substantial improvement.

If anyone ordered the new art book the Frazetta Museum hopes to have them in hand by next week. I think Vanguard got them already. I also believe it is sold out and they are considering a second printing.

I'm heading to the museum tomorrow. Can't remember if I mentioned this, but my wife is making some items for the museum to sell in their store. We are going to drop off some stuff and visit.

Say hi from me and Shedman, Is this your first visit or have you seen originals in person before? If it is your first time be prepared to be amazed, no matter how good the quality in books the originals really are something to see.

This is our second visit. There was so much to take in the first time I should be able to focus a bit more now.

Too tired to crack it open. Looking forward to it tomorrow.

Got mine yesterday. I like it and I love that we have a coffee table book and especially love that they included a bunch of the preliminary art for the iconic paintings but I have to say I think they made a HUGE mistake stretching many of the paintings accross both pages, it totally ruins it.

I think they would have been much better served by determining the largest area they wanted to use for the largest painting (likely catgirl) and making the book that size so it could be on one page. Everything that gets sucked into the binding in the middle is lost and it just doesn't look good across the two pages. Either a larger book (not much as it is only partially on the second page) or printing the paintings smaller to fit on one page would have been preferable IMO.

This is why I did not order it. Made little sense to me.
