Love Capcom? Get this A very nice compilation of Capcom art. A must have for true Capcom fighting game and action series fans. Lots of content
Great artbook!!! This is a great book with lots of beautiful artwork of the Capcom universe, including Street Fighter, Darkstalkers, Rival Schools, and more. My only complaint is that I'm not incredibly fond of the choice for the cover, I love the picture but just don't like looking at it all the time. If you love Capcom and fantastic artwork, then this book is a must have!!!
Don't expect all of Capcom's art Ok, the other reviews are correct in saying not all of Capcom's art is contained into this book. BUT it's UDON's art and not all of Capcom, Udon is just one of the many contributers to Capcom's artworks. If you want something that encompasses more of Capcom's titles you may want to check out "Capcom Design works" it's kind of hard to find in the US and about 3x the price of Udon's title, but it's a good buy.
As for Udon's book, as soon as I took it out of the box I was in a good mood. Raised printing, glossy pages, and an impressive 4 page spread of the Street Fighter characters inside. I also enjoyed how they showed their process of creating the cover in the back of the book (even though it's not extremely detailed). If you fallow Udon this is a great book and the fact that it doesn't have many of Capcom's title should not subtract in you buying a copy... After all it is UDON'S Art of Capcom... not Art of Capcom.
Good compilation This book is full of colorful illustrations, I really enjoyed it. My only qualm is that it had very few pictures of game titles like Onimusha. Still, it is a really cool book.
Excellently Excellent. UDON's Art of Capcom is a great purchase for any fan of the Capcom Video game series. It features covers from video games such as Street Fighter, UDON's Street Fighter Graphic novel/comic series, and other famed fighting game series'. If you are a collector of Videogame artbooks, be aware that this is actually made by and from UDONs artists themselves and does not feature any of the Art from Capcom's own Graphic Artists. This book is drawn extremely well, has rich details, and amazing colors.
