The art of building worlds in my hands
Posted By: Hypertrooper <hypertrooper@hotmail.de>Date: 9/26/11 8:10 a.m.


When I went out of the door hasty, I noticed something lying there on the stairs. It was a big sack. I knew, German retailers wouldn’t dispatch their package like this. So it only could be for me or my sister. I was in hurry, because I had to go to school. The package was for me. It was from Titan Publishing and that was the time when I realized, that I was holding one of my anticipated books in my hands. It was this neat thing:

Yep. It is. The limited edition of the upcoming Halo artbook. I don’t know why I got the book a month early, but hey. It’s here.

The book compared to other Halo books. (Encyclopedia, Art Of Halo 3):

The back of the package:

(I have the number 215/1000, if someone cares. Would be awesome if I had 343. But yeah.)

And now a pic of the whole content:

If you pre-order the limited edition, you will get these 4 lithographs:

There are signatures, but I don’t know if they are real. They look real for me, because it isn’t printed on the pictures.

The book itself is divided into parts. Every part deals with a specific topic. (Forerunner, Covenant, Flood etc.) There is a foreword by the charming guy Frank O’Conner. This guy knows what he talks about. I hope 343i already hired him. The paper quality is amazing. Better than the Art of Halo 3. About the art selection: There is a lot of stuff I haven’t seen before. I don’t know if they are brand new, but I guess you saw them already. So I nailed the stuff I want to talk about. Or you would say: I don’t have the words to describe them. I paid about 70€(~$95) and I think it is worth the price. So if you love the art of Halo, there will be no excuse for not picking up this book. If you want the limited edition, it is still available: [url] http://titanbooks.com/halo[/url]

If you have question, feel free to ask. (I should write more texts, because my english is bad. I'm sorry for this)
