Adventure Time - The Art of Ooo

I love this book. It's big, bold and yellow! It's not just your average "the art of" book either. It's brimming with fascinating insights into the land of Ooo and how it was brought to life through the wacky artwork of its creators. All the main characters are featured as you would expect but there's loads of early sketches and concept art too. For example, there's a great page about how they designed the logo with the sword. It's a really vibrant book and the offbeat humour of the show really comes across in the pages of this hardcover coffee table book too.

Great

An amazing collection of artwork from the fantastic Adventure Time series which really provides an insight into how the show is made. My 9 year old son loves it and will no doubt go back to this book many times.

Positives: + Very colourful + High quality + Lots of pages + Great designs, from drawings/sketches to full colour + Great to use for drawing from Can't complain :)

INCREDIBLE! I have a ton of 'art of...' books in my collection and this is one of my absolute favourites. There is so, so much included here - both written content and pictures. An absolute MUST for any Adventure Time fan.

Amazing find, not just for fans of the show but for anyone interested in animation, story and character design.

It was ok!

Wonderful art, really interesting and insightful information about the creative process, a must for Adventure Time fans

El arte es muy bueno, vienen Storyboards, bocetos, conceptos y mil cosas para pasarte un buen rato mirandolo... un buen libro para ver el corazon de la serie.

I own many art books. I'm an artist and an animator by trade, so I favor those sorts of art books. There will be days where I sit in my living room, a stack of them all around me, and I'll read through them for hours. So I knew, as a fan of the show's background designs specifically, that I needed to add Adventure Time: The Art of Ooo to my collection as soon as I heard of its release. I was not disappointed. In fact, The Art of Ooo has changed my expectations for art books. This book is special. It's the book I recommend to those aspiring toward an animation career regardless on if they've seen Adventure Time or not. This book is THOROUGH; it is so much more than a collection of beautiful illustrations. You get the show's origin story. You learn about the team behind the Adventure Time universe. You glimpse their studio process, their pitch bible, and even the art tests they send to prospective new recruits. I learned so much from this book. I'm STILL learning so much from this book. The Art of Ooo is huge. You won't be carrying this book with you on the train to read during your commute -- heck, it's difficult enough reading it before bed! The book is heavy, but it's overflowing with excellent information and amazing artwork. Out of my entire collection, this art book is my favorite. It'll surely become yours, too!

MAGNIFIQUE ! C'est le mot pour définir cet ouvrage ! Les impressions sont superbes, le grand format met parfaitement en valeur le contenu qui est riche et intéressant ! Je suis vraiment ravi de cet achat et je le conseil vivement aux fans de Adventure Time même s'il est uniquement en anglais. Si vous n'êtes pas bilingue ça reste un grand plaisir pour les yeux !

This art book is unlike any art book I have ever purchased. I'm a huge fan of the show and just knew I had to get this. What I expected was your normal run-of-the-mill art book filled with a forward, introduction a few words about the show and lots of pictures. What I was surprised with was the depth that the book goes into. It's something I always wished that most art books would do. It explains the thought process through the show, the designs, and the art shown on the pages. To say that too many words would make the book lack images isn't true. This art book is HUGE. Twice the size of most standard ones that I have owned. It's a delight to read and I hope anyone else who buys this enjoys it as much as I do.

Wer Adventure Time kennt und liebt, wird an diesem Band nicht vorbeikommen. Groß und im Querformat kommt das Buch daher, und ist so randvoll mit Informationen, Zeichnungen, Skizzen, Interviews und Anekdoten, dass man sich schnell für ein paar Stunden darin verlieren kann. Worauf müssen die Zeichner der Serie achten, wie entstand überhaupt die Idee zu den Figuren, was für versteckte Symboliken sind in AT zu finden? Kaum eine Frage bleibt unbeantwortet, hier wurde wirklich liebevoll alles an Information gesammelt, was den Adventure Time Fan glücklich machen kann.
