The Art and Making of Arcane (Gaming)

There aren't enough words to describe how fantastic and gorgeous this book is. I'd been eyeing it for a while, and when I saw it was on sale, my heart leapt. I haven't had time to thoroughly go through the text, though I can tell it's very detailed and shows a fascinating look at behind the scenes. The quality of the art within this book cannot be understated, and I absolutely love the two-page and four-page spreads of landscapes from the show. I also missed the extras in the product information, so I was very pleasantly surprised to find loose pages of hextech blueprints, Jinx's wanted poster, Vander's letter to Silco, a paint stencil for Jinx's monkey bomb sigil, and a map of Piltover!!! I wish we could also see a map of just the undercity, but I'm very happy at least seeing where Zaun is in relation to Piltover. My favorite page so far is the disc concept art, including the famous timebomb fairies that look inspired by Stromae and Pomme, the musicians featured in the timebomb episode.Also, the bottom-right corner of the dust jacket was damaged during shipping, though that feels more to do with handling during shipping. It came wrapped in clear plastic and encased within bubble wrap, so perhaps when it was wrapped for shipping, the corner was bent and it simply stayed that way until delivery.Anyways, it's a minor detail and I don't mind it too much personally. THE ART IS SO BEAUTIFUL! And the pink ribbon for a bookmark was very clever and will be helpful as I read.

Beautiful Hardcover. Heavy paper stock and amazing print quality. A very high quality book for sure, and worth the money. I find it very cool that the Jinx character has scribbled throughout the book, crossing things out, writing in the margins, doodles… it’s like reading the same book from two perspectives, the authors and then Jinx. The artwork is amazing. It’s very dense. I am very happy with my purchase.

BEAUTIFUL! AMAZING! 10/10!!! The amount of hidden “treasures” In the book is so heartwarming!! They really do love and fans. Theirs posters (map of piltover and the undercity, blue print of hexcore, and a wanted poster of jinx!) and a stencil of jinx’s monkey graffiti! It is SO WORTH IT! :))

soo cool! this book was worth every penny, it shows the making of arcane, concept arts, and a bunch of sketches. there’s also 5 different inserts that i hung up including jinx’s missing poster! i’m obsessed with this book it’s so well made, amazing quality, very heavy and big and just incredible. i love the show and i love it even more now. if ur thinking about buying this get it now!!

This book is amazing! i got it to help my art studies and it is so cool to just look at and reading about the show is so fun! i recommend this a hundred times over!

I’ve been wanting to buy this for so long, and I’m so glad I finally got my hands on it! Had several posters and little inserts added as extras. My only complaint is the quality of the paper. It’s not too thin, but I was hoping for a magazine/shiny-style finish. Not sure what the technical term for that is, but every art book I’ve ever purchased had better quality paper than this one.

I love Arcane and I've wanted to get this for a while! It doesn't disappoint. The art is breathtaking and I love reading about the process.

As a fan of League of Legends and the Arcane series, I pre-ordered The Art and Making of Arcane without hesitation and it absolutely delivered. The book is beautifully put together, filled with stunning artwork, behind-the-scenes details, and tons of visual development that bring the show’s world to life.One of my favorite touches is Jinx’s chaotic scribbles and notes scattered throughout it really adds personality and makes the book feel like a piece of the Arcane universe. Whether you're into animation, concept art, or just love the characters, this artbook is a fantastic addition to any fan’s collection.
