Book Review: Sorayama Masterworks

Masterworks is the complete collection of Hajime Sorayama's paintings. Sorayama is a true master in rendering different type of textures, like skin, metal, silk, and so on and looking at this huge book you can understand why his name is worldwide recognize as one of the best modern illustrators. The book contains every kind of illustration Sorayama did; his famous robots, pin-ups, beautiful women and also a huge number of erotic images.

In addition to the amazing artworks contained inside, the book is solid and very well printed, so it's a pleasure to seat down and look at it for hours.

My only little critic is about the book size. With so many paintings of that quality I would have preferred to have it printed in a bigger size to look at every detail Sorayama painted more easily.

Anyway this is a "must have" book for everyone who likes figurative art.
