Start your review of The Hobbit: The Boxing of the Five Armies - Chronicles V: Fine art & Design

I am a massive fan of fantasy art. From the early days of my babyhood I adored pouring over drawings, paintings, and sculptures of things ranging from dragons souring through the skies through to wizards standing toe to toe with invading armies. I literally worshipped artists like John Howe, Keith Parkinson, Michael Whelan and Frank Frazetta, and I consumed their work with fanaticism and passion.

And then when I heard of the the impending release of the Art and Design book for The Hobbit: The Battle

I am a massive fan of fantasy art. From the early days of my childhood I adored pouring over drawings, paintings, and sculptures of things ranging from dragons souring through the skies through to wizards standing toe to toe with invading armies. I literally worshipped artists like John Howe, Keith Parkinson, Michael Whelan and Frank Frazetta, and I consumed their work with fanaticism and passion.

So when I heard of the the impending release of the Fine art and Design book for The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies I was excited to say the least. And boy was I not disappointed. Composing of over 250 different pieces of art, sketches, costumes and concept designs, The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies Art and Design book is an impressive addition to fantasy art literature. This volume covers everything, from the initial sketches and artist give-and-take correct though to the last design that made it to film. Props, sets, creatures, armour and weapons are all covered in cracking item, and conceptual artists like John Howe and Alan Lee provide proficient commentary all throughout the book.

I adored pouring over each and every single page, taking in the cute artwork or gleaming an interesting fact from the information (such as how Thranduil'due south armour was initially inspired by the intricate and beautiful armour of Japanese samurai) that accompanied it. I also enjoyed how the volume was divided into sections that focused on the different factions of Middle Earth, and I loved seeing the bad guys (orcs, goblins, Necromancer etc) become equal handling and focus. It was simply amazing to larn just how much work and groundwork design goes into the production of a film similar the The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, and after reading this I have a new constitute respect and adoration for all of those men and women behind its production.

I could read this tome over and over and still detect new things every time. To put it simply, this volume is a must accept for any fantasy art lover, Tolkien fan, or cosplayer. An admittedly stunning and visually brilliant book, and a must have for anyone with eyes and a soul!

v out of 5 stars.

Bilbo got one page. ONE. PAGE. Which is on-par with the movie, I estimate. BUT WOW. It didn't even bear witness all his costumes???? And all the dwarves got like 10 pages each????

Likewise, much of the text was plot summary, which was a waste of time and also deadening.

Wow.

This final relate of The Hobbit art books contains amazingly gorgeous concept fine art. Over one-half of it is digital art (I usually adopt pencil, ink, or charcoal fatigued fine art) only this stuff is then good I can't complain.

Wow.

This concluding chronicle of The Hobbit art books contains amazingly gorgeous concept art. Over half of it is digital fine art (I usually prefer pencil, ink, or charcoal fatigued art) merely this stuff is so skillful I tin can't complain.

And the pencil or ink drawn art in hither is incredible. Mostly all done by the masters Alan Lee and John Howe, they are detailed and imaginative and beautiful.

Sometimes, though, the art that looked the all-time and most interesting was and so tiny yous couldn't run into it very well. I know that they can't have a 700 folio volume to give each piece a total page, more than's the pity, just it was still a bit disappointing.

I found myself being torn while reading this book though, because something would exist mentioned and I was thanking whoever vetoed that idea, like Thorin and Azog battling beyond the confront of a frozen waterfall, while ice chunks fell abroad. And and then I would read that someone had drawn up a full color sketch of Azog holding Kili underwater while Thorin struggled desperately to attain him and bang my caput against the wall considering WHY COULDN'T THAT Accept BEEN IN THE MOVIE?!?

The concept art for Thorin's tomb in Erebor was great art blueprint and then pretty. Why can't I recall seeing information technology in the motion picture?

Probably because I couldn't meet through my tears.

The concept fine art for Thorin being slain more most to Dale looked much better than Thazog On Ice.

I wish they had kept in the nod to Gimli and Legolas' friendship by having that i line between Gloin and Thranduil.

I really liked some of the other designs for Bolg that they were because far more than than what they settled on.

And so from this information technology would announced that Dain was entirely digital, which I totally called while watching the movie, because he looked all incorrect.

"In Tolkien's books, Goblins are synonymous with Orcs." Really??

"The reference in the books to Azog having a huge, atomic number 26-clad caput." Oh, I judge you likewise decided to ignore the reference about Azog non beingness live during the timeline of the Hobbit...

Yous can definitely come across that Peter Jackson has a flair for the dramatic, considering all the things he wanted added in because information technology would await bitching. Some of those were admittedly pretty absurd, just some were just a wee flake over the top.

Oh, and I found a typo!

"neighboring Erebor soldtheir toys and jewelry."

No space.

I similar art and Tolkien so this volume was 1 of the first ones that I got.I love seeing what could have been in the films. This was an excellent read.

I've been reading this on-and-off over the past few days - concept design and set/costume behind the scene stuff of film is then fascinating, and to see visually how it was created is really cool. BoFA wasn't my favourite film, just if you love art and design this book is amazing to flip through. So much particular and idea clearly went into the procedure, and these people are experts in their craft. 5/five.

The Hobbit: The Battle of the V Armies - Chronicles Five: Art & Design

Mind-blowing how much pre-production work that goes into creating a picture show world, fifty-fifty more astonishing is the volume of art sketches and creative designs that are imagined, trialled, sampled, and then discarded.
Beautiful in-depth illustrations and commentary

I disegni di John Howe sono sempre spettacolari, i miei preferiti in questo volume sono quelli di Dol Goldur.
Metto 4 stelle anzichè 5 perchè non parla quasi per niente delle scene più drammatiche, ma solo della sala funebre.

The artistry alone is reason plenty to purchase this book.

It was cool to read about some of the ideas they had for the film merely decided to discard.
There was one problem with this book, there was to picayune virtually Bilbo and Tauriel. There were a few drawings of Bilbo simply none of Tauriel, at least Bilbo got a whole folio!
