Many of the Books I show can be found on Amazon, but I recommend buying directly from the artist/original publisher when possible as it supports the artists more.

[@aliciedraws]

i love seeing what types of artbooks other artists have to get inspiration from, thank you for sharing!!!

[@Syertse]

Yes, I agree! It's fun to see overlap in interest and then some stuff that's wildly different. Thank you so much for watching~

Great video from a wonderful channel. Art books have provided me a much-needed escape from real life. I have my easy chair set up with a desk, a lamp, a blanket and a cup of coffee. I spent many hours with dragons, unicorns, space battles, pixies, knights, and now with my National Geographic books, the vast undersea world of the coral reefs. My art books are the best investments I ever made. My 4 favorite books are: - Fantasy Art Paintings by Mike Hoffman - Works of Wonder by Michael Whelan - Infinite Worlds by Vincent DiFate - Great Fighter Jets of the Galaxy 1 by Tim Gibson

[@eyesonfireart]

@@Syertse you WONT BELIEVE what BOOK she pulls out NEXT 👀

[@julesie_]

Is she an artist or something why does she have so many art books

[@DeadassSloppy]

That Fire Emblem artbook is one of our favorites. 💙 It's a character designer's brainstorm book. 🤯

[@Syertse]

It's such a great book! Especially for a game that was meant to be presented on a tiny 3DS screen, the amount or detail and work put into it is mind blowing!

[@DeadassSloppy]

@@Syertse You nailed it. The amount of love put into that game is ... oof.

[@FloatingShorts]

The cover feels nice I like that book too.

[@DeadassSloppy]

@@FloatingShortsAgreed. The cover feels amazing on bare skin.

[@em84c]

I really want the fashion illustration one!

[@Fortehideki]

Im very particular about my artbook collection. If the artbook isnt at least half sketches , then I dont want it 😅! I'm just fascinated and excited seeing the build up of masters before their finished product 😆

[@Syertse]

That makes sense! I personally love seeing all types of finished work because I get to compare so many different styles and processes! Thanks for watching the video ♡

[@effenblue]

Thanks for sharing your collection with us.

[@OsOkod]

[@nixalotle]

[@Syertse]

Isnt it pretty?? The boxart is drawn by Lucidsky. her art is amazinngg! Thank you for watching!

[@FluffyKittenofMordor]

What a treasure trove of inspiration :O I can see why Heikala is your fav. I wanna draw interesting imagery like her. Great editing as usual. A lot of passion in this video! 💖 Do you have a burning desire to tell a story, Syertse? Would you ever make a graphic novel with your OCs...?

[@Syertse]

I think one day I’d love to make a comic of some sort, but I would do a lot of planning and work behind the scenes before I start sharing things about it online. It’s definitely a project for the future though! Thank you for watching the video ❤️

[@FloatingShorts]
