The Art and Making of Arcane Hardcover – 9 Dec. 2024

Amazing bookThis book is an absolute must-have for any fan of Arcane. The artwork is breathtaking, showcasing the incredible attention to detail that went into the series' world-building. The behind-the-scenes content gives fascinating insights into the creative process, from character designs to environmental concepts.The quality of the print and pages is excellent, making it a great addition to any collection. Whether you're a fan of the show or just appreciate beautifully crafted art books, this is definitely worth it. Highly recommended!

Just wow.I was a little annoyed that amazon damaged my book in transit and now that its out of stock there is no option to replace but thats irrelevant to the product itself.The book? Well, if you like Arcane even a little and you enjoy artbooks then this is one of the best things ever made. It has so much stuff. Storyboarding, character creation/designs, world designs, design process notes and information about everything but its so much more too because its done with heavy emphasis on Jinx (as it says on the front, she is the director) and so there are several parts where things appear to be annotated in her style with things like silly moustaches on but not so frequently they detract from any of the core "creation of Arcane" pieces. Its fantastically balanced and all integrated so well that I can't recommend it highly enough.Absolutely fantastic!

Took 4 months to get here, but aside from that the book itself is wonderful and packed with information and images. Exactly what I expected and thrilled about it.

This is only the third art book I’ve ever bought and I’ve never seen such a high quality presentation. The prop posters, maps etc, the detailed writing - the gorgeous world building artwork. This is the most amazing thing I’ve ever owned and I got for a price I wouldn’t have blamed Amazon for not honouring. But they did honour it and I will treasure this book forever. Astonishing. If it comes back in stock - seriously buy it. You won’t be disappointed A+++ (S Rank)ps. Ignore the one star reviews - rockets who ordered it as a pre-order, expected it the next day and didn’t READ the actual release date (which was on the page when I ordered it in October). I find it a disgrace that people gave it a one star disregarding how much care, love and work went into by 45 artists because the one-star-reviewers didn’t read the release date.Edit: The first print run was order-able in October and sold out by November. The first batch of the pre-orders from October were delivered in December 2024. If you ordered it at the end of November/December 2024 the next print run is March 2025. Don’t leave unfair reviews because you don’t understand how book printing works. This book was made with 45 artists love and passion and it does not deserve one star reviews for people who ordered it 2 months late and then had tantrums because they didn’t get access to the first batch.

Ordered this book almost 3 weeks ago and was so excited to receive it as I study this kind of thing at uni and I love this show, however i still have not received my order and have had no updates on when it might arrive.

Simply beautiful

Bought for my teenager daughter as a surprise Christmas present after watching the Arcane series on Netflix. It was much bigger than thought and it is excellent, packed full of illustrations and facts, it is perfect for a fan of the show. So much to read and lots of extras such as pull out blueprints. Well worth the money.

Opening this book after it arrived was Christmas itself (despite it being delivered just shy of a week before). Not only is the outer cover amazing and incredibly nice to look at, but inside hold the most inspiring sketches and character studies I've seen since the Avatar Art books released.Not to mention the fact that each book comes with extra insert within - something I hadn't even realised was included until stumbling upon them in person. My room is now amazingly decorated with sporadic new arcane posters and I am nothing short of thrilled.
