"The grandfather of manga and anime, Osamu Tezuka created hundreds of unforgettable characters during his 40+ year career as an illustrator and animator. His influence on generations of artists has been immeasurable, and is still felt today across Japan and beyond. The Osamu Tezuka: Anime & Manga Character Sketchbook collects rough concepts from several of Tezuka's anime and manga projects. Included are characters from Mighty Atom (Astroboy), Jungle Emperor (Kimba the White Lion), and many more."
I consider it more of a 3.5The book is great, good quality, it really takes you behind tezuka's methods for defining his characters, but at only 140 pages, it feels like there could have been so much more here.Each page is a sketchbook page, it seems obvious but I didn't realize the whole book was literally a sketchbook. It isn't a bad thing at all but just so you know.If another of these books was printed and it had significantly more sketches, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.
