DESCRIPTION:
"Well worth the 20 bucks I got it for back in the day." according to *nom*licious. Has a lot of pics. So many that each time I go through it, there are more that I do not remember seeing before (even googling etc for them). The pictures are not captioned so I cannot look up a particular pic name on the web for more info etc. The color is a little lacking, but for the original price it was well worth it. The paper is not a thick gloss paper like in an art history/ other collegette book which is one reason the color is not as saturated or vibrant as the original works. The book and bounding is more like a really. "Torture and Tease" according to Z. Rodrigues. I must say that the book is well worth the buy for its content, however its small size and matt paper only make you wish they would make a highgloss Taschen Type edition to do it justice. The other reviews are pretty much on the money. You will appreciate it as a ctalogue of Sorayamas devine collected work but will hate it for the size and compromise of quality. I am delighted to own it, I am angry it is small and of low quality paper wise. Not a rip-off, not a bargain, just a disappointing tease solely by format.. "Five Stars" according to The Phil and Judy Show. Very informative bookwell illustrated
Over 100 cyborgs, robots, and erotic super pin-ups fill each of these popular collection by world famous airbrush illustrator, Hajime Soroyama.
