Just honestly curios, Are you also into the recent "Monster GIrl" Fad that's a popular pop-culture rite now?I have the art books for Godzilla (2014), Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, Godzilla: King of the Monsters, and I actually just got the dispatch notice for Godzilla vs. Kong. I’ve been a fan of creature/monster design since I was a kid. Now that I’m a bigger kid, I can actually afford to buy these things and let them gather dust on my shelf
Ah, I see. On that note then, were you big on/or have collected anything from Pacific Rims(homage to monster mayhem's Godzilla/Kaijuu genre)? I'm a casual fan of the first movie, kinda didn't feel too hype with the second one.I should’ve probably phrased that I’m mostly into Godzilla and ape-creature designs
Any is fine, what do you have in your stock pile/browsing pages as of rn? A general idea is fine.all types of art or just anime?
i appreciate all types of art, mainly fine art but also graphic design. years ago, i use to go to the book shop and buy one art book a week for inspiration for my own work. i did have a large art book collection which cost me quite a bit.
for me, art books were the next best thing to going to an art gallery. and i use to go to art galleries, exhibitions and museums a lot.
now i prefer looking at art books and watching art documentaries over going to galleries. i rarely buy art books now but i do sometimes go to my local library because they have a good selection of books.
Nice stash, tho I'll admit the SenranI don’t often go out of my way but I’ve got most of what I think I might want already for the moment. Some aren’t strictly art books and many came with the games but here’s my collection so far:

Nice one. You know what you just reminded me? I'd hope to see a comprehensive art book just for Rom Saga, Thread of fate(Dewprism), and Musashi from square's vault compiled one day if they even still remember those classic IPs.Love gaming artbooks! I have a little shelf dedicated to them! However, this one is my favourite!:

It's not just that it is of my favourite game, it's how insightful it is! It has so much more than the usual CGI Promo/Amano works (Which I love of course!) -- I describe it as if someone raided the S-E Archive and vacuumed all the artworks during production and poured them into this book!

So many skecthes on Characters, NPC's, Locations, Automobiles enemies and weapons! It's a wonderful book, sadly it is the only one of it's kind, Bradygames did include Artbooks with their guides for X-2 & XII but there no way near as in depth as this.
I see you mentioned Cowboy Bebop, this might interest youBebop(Animations):
