Great depth in terms of details and art Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R2RH5HHEOC8ASP I only got to know Tim Sale through the paintings he did for Heroes, the TV series. The paintings were cool, so is this book.
This is a thick hardcover book without a dust jacket. There are 272 pages, mostly printed in black and white, with the last few pages devoted to some coloured pieces.
The book is written by Richard Starkings in a question and answer format throughout. It explores the life of Tim Sale, his inspiration, the many projects he has done so far, how he got to provide artwork for Heroes and other interesting stuff. The chapters are categorized primarily by his projects. There's quite a lot to read.
There are lots of sketches, comic panels, commissions and art done for fans at comic-con, etc. He dislike Johnny Depp but still drew Jack Sparrow for a fan. Most of his finished inks aren't coloured. Even the paintings that were used on Heroes were coloured by Dave Stewart - I didn't know that!
My first impression when I first flipped through the book was,"Hey, it's quite worth the money." That's probably because of the savings when printing without colour.
But hey, it's really pretty worth the money.
There are more pictures of the book on my blog. Just visit my Amazon profile for the link.
A Must-have for Comic Fans This book follows comic artist Tim Sale's career from his early days as an amateur illustrator to his work on the current hit series Hereos. Tim talks about how his career started and how he got to where he is today. This book is filled with artwork from his many projects including his popular Batman works. It's a huge book that will look great displayed on a coffee table, and it is well worth the cover price. I recommend this not only to fans of Tim Sale, but to comic fans in general. You won't be disappointed with this purchase.
Essential You need something cool on the coffee table, right? And well, that Madonna "Sex" book is kinda dated and has started drawing odd stares from visitors. Well, replace it with something that's real - Tim Sale: Black and White - Revised and Expanded. Probably the most influential illustrator working today, Tim Sale brings a keen sense of design right alongside superior draughtmanship and combines them to make stunning pictures. Yes, some of them have appeared in comic books. And some on television. But don't turn your nose up at that. This is serious art made by a committed artist. Don't miss out.
The definitive book on one of this generation's definitive artists. If you are a fan of Tim Sale, of comics, of Heroes.....this book is a must. An intimate and informative look at one of the great illustrators of our time. The book is full of sketches, finished drawings, comic pages, covers, commissions, and an all new section of art colored by master colorist Dave Stewart.....not to mention a wonderfully candid interview with Tim by longtime friend and collaborator, Richard Starkings. Beautifully designed and presented in an over-sized hardcover format. I can't recommend this book highly enough.
