Parka Blogs Art Book Stores

Hi there, if you're still reading this, you should head over to the new parkablogs.com for the latest art book reviews.

I've also just recently created a few online art book stores on my blog. There are art books relating to animation, concept art, comics, manga, individual artists, movies, and Japanese anime art books.

Here are the links back to the art book stores on parkablogs.com:
USA, UK, Canada, Germany, France, Japan 日本

Help bookmark the stores or post links on your blog's sidebar! The more visitors I have at the stores, the more giveaways and contests I can organise.

Thanks.

Parka Blogs has moved

I've moved parkablogs.blogspot to parkablogs.com.

All new art book reviews will be posted over there in the future. I will no longer be updating this blogspot account.

Do update your bookmarks and your RSS feed so you can access the new content.

Thanks everyone for the support so far.

Photos from Massive Black Workshop Jan 2008

Irene Gallo just recently blogged about the Massive Black workshop held in Seattle in Jan 2009 and has provided tons of great photos from the event.

Great stuff.

Pictures of Absolute Sandman with Slipcase

I love looking at people's bookshelves and see what they've got. So today, I did a search for Absolute Sandman on Flickr. All pictures shown in this entry are from Flickr and will link back to their respective owners.

Absolute Sandman is actually a 4-volume hardcover compilation of all the Sandman issues. It comes with a slipcase. You can read more about Sandman and its history on Wikipedia.




Notice how the Absolute editions have more colours added on.


Oh, and notice the size difference too.

















I haven't got a chance to read any Sandman yet, but I shall find a way to get them.

Here are some Amazon links if you want to find out more on the books. The reviews on are overwhelmingly positive.

Open Season 2 and Shrek straight to DVD

Do you know that Open Season 2 is a straight-to-dvd (Amazon link)? Or do you even know it exists?

The trailer doesn't look very good.







By the way, they have a straight-to-dvd addition to Shrek as well, called Shrek The Halls (Amazon link). And they are selling that for $12 for a 22 minutes video. Not really worth the money.

Shane Acker and Tim Burton's 9 Coming on 9.9.09

Directed by Shane Acker, produced by Tim Burton, 9 is looking great. You can check out more of 9 on wikipedia. So far there's very little on it, not every an official movie website.

Here's the original same name short film it was based on. It was created by Shane Acker.



No news on any books coming with the movie as yet.
