Art of Cars,Daily Zoo Workbook, Dulac Treasury, Miss Fury

The Delux Miss Fury hardcover from IDW will be on sale tomorrow. If you are a fan of vintage comics, do yourself a favour and check it out.


IN STOCK NOW.

My Daily zoo workbook looks like a kids art instruction book, but its so good, grown ups and artists who love animals definately need to consider adding this one to their shelves. Real nice stuff.

If you dont already know Edmund Dulac, but you are a fan of Arthur Rackham or James Jean, you really need to get introduced. this volume is double the thickness of the previous Dulac book, but the price is low low low.



Art of Cars 2 arrives in shop today. Pixar continues its great line of art books with this new addition.
