KANEKO YUJI ANIMATION BACKGROUND ART BOOK
Japanese Import - Japanese Text
"Kaneko's brushstrokes have a "breathing" feel to them. This is something that is currently being ``lost'' in the art world. Please pick it up and enjoy it."
(Director Yoshikazu Yasuhiko of "Mobile Suit Gundam: The Island of Cucurrus Doan")
Kaneko is the representative of the art studio ``Aoprint Co., Ltd.'' and is the art director of popular anime works such as ``Kill la Kill'' and ``Ranking of Kings,'' as well as theatrical animations such as ``Sakasama no Patema'' and ``Mobile Suit Gundam: Cucurrus Doan Island.'' This book is Kaneko's first collection of beautiful background art paintings that he has created over the years.
Kaneko's drawings are filled with the warm, somehow new charm of drawing a variety of genres with an analog brush, from realistic landscapes of the real world to worlds of science fiction and fantasy.
In the comments and columns, we introduce how the background artists come up with ideas and finish the picture based on the direction requested by the production side and the layout drawn by the animation director. This is a must-have book for anyone who wants to become an animator or loves anime.
