A visual road trip from Route 66 to Route 666, this rockin'
collection of more than 600 artworks presents the unapologetically
fun and undeniably cool spirit of rockabilly and psychobilly. The
55 artists featured here represent a global subculture and are some
of today's best lowbrow and cartoon artists, the de facto styles of
the genre. Whether you're burning for nostalgia or learning more
about the phenomenon, this massive collection is a study of some of
the main themes of modern rockabilly culture: respect the past, be
proudly defiant, and stay true to what you like. Here you'll see a
broad range of stylistic influence from the 1930s to the 1990s as
well as other sub-pop cultures like jazz, ska, surf, burlesque,
punk, and horror adorning album art, show posters, comics, pin-ups,
and more. Complete with a playlist curated by the artists, this is
a must-have volume of art by artists who are finding success
despite being outsiders.
The Art and Making of Fantasy Miniatures is a showcase of some of
the best talent in the industry. Compiled with the cooperation of
eleven of the most innovative companies from Europe, the UK and
USA, it shows what goes in to the creative process of taking an
initial concept from two-dimensional sketches and translating it
into a three-dimensional figurine ready for collectors and tabletop
gamers. Game designers, artists and sculptors explain their part in
bringing these miniature works of art to life. The book is lavishly
illustrated with over 1,000 images, including concept art,
work-in-progress sculpts and beautifully painted miniatures. The
book features miniatures from games and companies such as Aradia
Miniatures, Alkemy (Alchemist Miniatures), Avatars of War,
Godslayer (Megalith Games), Guild Ball (Steamforged Games),
Relicblade (Metal King Studio), WARMACHINE and HORDES (Privateer
Press), RUMBLESLAM (TTCombat), Drakerys (Don't Panic Games), Kings
of War (Mantic Games) and Freeblades (DGS Games).
Born of color and light in Long Beach, a protege of legendary
lowbrow icon The PIZZ, Candy has struck a fever in the landscape of
pop surrealism. Her damsels of the West, exotic tiki vixens, sultry
hot-rod gals, and weirdo monsters have graced galleries, books, and
magazines as far out as France, Italy, Germany, Japan, and
Australia. Now, for the first time, Candy Weil's wild and wondrous
works are collected and served up as the sexy, funny cartoon
cocktail your eyes so desperately need. Over 200 color and
black-and-white pieces, as well as sketches from various stages of
her creative process, showcase Candy's unforgettable, eye-popping
style and her growing fame in the lowbrow scene. Featuring a
foreword by BigToe, this collection is a must-have for all lowbrow,
vintage, and pop surrealism art lovers.
"In this book, many of the depictions of what a girl gang is are
not the most admirable. They are often belligerent, rude, violent,
and lewd. But it sure does make for great art and entertainment.
However, if you can overlook the vices of the girl gang, you'll
find their best aspects to be those shared with a roller derby
team: a devil-may-care sense of fun, unassailable confidence, and a
formidable sense of camaraderie." This explosive collection
features more than 400 roller derby and girl gang-inspired artworks
from 52 of today's most kick-ass artists from around the world.
With posters, logos, fan art, pinups, and more, Roller Derby / Girl
Gang serves as a scrapbook of rough-and-tumble, fun-loving girls
banding together to take on the world. Includes a playlist of
favorite bad-girl anthems curated by the artists, lists of their
all-time favorite girl gangs, and a foreword by Samara Pepperell,
a.k.a. Lady Trample.
