Frank frazetta book 2⚔️Fantastic art of Frank Frazetta Fantasy & Sci-fi Master artist vol 2

Frazetta book 2 review, volume 2 in the Fantastic Art of Frank Frazetta series ( 5 books by Peacock press, Bantam book & Pan books Edited by Betty Ballantine). Like the other books in this series, book 2 doesn't have a specific theme, but rather showcases around 50 plages / images of master artist Frank Frazettas art work, concentrating mainly on his paintings, which I believe are mostly oil paintings. That being said, Frank is known mostly for his Fantasy art, so you will see a selection of heroic warriors, beautiful maidens in distress, Tarzan, John Carter, Conan, horror scenes, battles, monsters, sci fi and more throughout these books.
Whilst the books are mainly paintings, there are some black and white inked pieces sprinkles in too. You can find more of Frazettas inked work in the book 'Living Legend' and his sketches in the Arcanum books or the 2 sketchbooks by J David Spurlock. Some other art books that contain a selection of Frank Frazettas work are Icon, Testament, Legacy, Rough Work and the latest, a huge 500 page collection by Taschen called The Fantastic Worlds of Frank Frazetta.

Frank Frazetta is so legendary, he even makes want to go to the bookstores and look for his art works 🖋️🖊️✏️🖍️. They even inspire meow to grab into my pens and practice for drawing my own art works 🖋️🖊️✏️🖍️ 😺👍.

Yeah he was such a fantastic artist! So many books to collect too, I just had the big Tachen frank frazetta book arive today (fantastic worlds of frank frazetta i think?) But it's so big and expensive that I dont dare open it! Definitely let me know if you come across any frazetta books in your bookstore and good luck with the drawings! - I need to get my sketchbook out too!

Genius artwork.

[@SketchedbySte]

Agreed!

Is the Taschen book worth it. I'd love to have it in my collection but it's a little pricey.

[@SketchedbySte]

Mine just arrived today, but I haven't opened it yet so I will have to get back to you. For me I always wanted it since release, but like you mentioned, it is real expensive ( even if it is worth it, it's still a lot of money! ) I will say that seeing in it person though, it really is HUGE, so you could argue it's worth more, it's always quite inconvenient at that size though especially if you don't have a decent space to store it on your book shelf lol. I am told the print quality and colours are beautiful so I will report back on that soon. Another thing that put me off from buying it for a while though, after seeing a lot of other videos previewing the book, I noticed that a very large chunk at the beginning of the book was dedicated to history, text and comic book pannels, which for me I have little interest in ( no disrespect intended ) but that's similar in a lot of Taschen books ( and other master artist books, alphonse mucha for example is a perfect example of this, what I call 'filler' for the first chunk of the book). I finally bought the book the other week because Taschen had their 50% off sale, so it dropped from 150 to 75 (GBP) and I noticed a lot of other people did the same, so if you're not in a rush, you could hold off for another big sale like that? My worry is that it's going to be too big to actually use and read through and I will be paranoid about damaging a book like this haha! But I am glad I finally have it. Thanks for watching!

I think the Éowyn drawing is sort of hilarious, given that she's supposedly disguising herself as a man in the book. She might have botched that attempt. Not that I'm complaining.

[@SketchedbySte]

haha! To be fair have you seen that squat booty he gives his men too, especially the orcs in his LOTR drawing ( can't remember if it's this book or the next one, but it's worth checking out XD). You're not wrong though!

@@SketchedbySte So far I haven't had any difficulty distinguishing Frazetta's manly butts from female booties. :P
