Zitat:The 256 pages of this beautiful book are packed to bursting with more than 1,800 pieces of conceptual artwork created for the epic final instalment of Peter Jackson’s film adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit.

Learn how the battle for the Lonely Mountain was plotted, its armies designed and its landscapes shaped, through detailed commentary by the films’ Academy Award-winning creative team members at 3Foot7, Weta Digital and Weta Workshop.

From Lake-town and Dol Guldur to Dale and Ravenhill, each section is richly illustrated with concept art depicting creatures, costumes, armour, props and environment design hand-picked by the artists themselves from the Dragon’s hoard of artwork generated for the film.

Compiled by Weta Workshop senior concept designer Daniel Falconer, with a foreword by Costume Designer, Bob Buck, and introduction by Concept Art Director and renowned Tolkien artist, John Howe, this fifth volume in The Hobbit: Chronicles series has been created in full collaboration with key members of the production’s creative team to ensure the most comprehensive and authentic film companion possible.

As a special bonus, included is a removable printed art plate of key production artwork by Weta Workshop Concept Artist Gus Hunter.

Daniel Falconer has been a designer at Weta Workshop since 1996, producing conceptual art as part of the design team on many of the company’s high profile projects including The Lord of the Rings, King Kong, The Chronicles of Narnia, Avatar, and now The Hobbit. In addition to the Chronicles series, Daniel has written a number of books for Weta; The World of Kong, The Crafting of Narnia, Weta: The Collector’s Guide and The Art of District 9, each showcasing the company’s creative works. He lives and works in Wellington, New Zealand with his wife Catherine and two daughters, reveling in his dream career of playing in imaginary worlds every day.

Würde ich nicht zu lange warten.. die letzte Art&Design ist seit einiger Zeit restlos vergriffen und geht schon für ordentliche Sammlerpreise raus.

Wie lange ist denn das Buch eigentlich zu ordern als signierte Version mit den Zugaben seitens Weta? Finde da gerade keine zeitliche Begrenzung.

Ich schätze bis die signierte Version ausverkauft ist.

[Argonath]

Echt schade, dass man über Weta nicht auch die deutsche Version signiert bekommen kann. Das wäre dann natürlich optimal.
Aber gut, gibt Schlimmeres.
