New Things For Me

[eastofthemoon]

I finally got two books that I had ordered online.

First off is a Slayers Artbook that I got for a real good price on ebay. It's the one that has all the novel illustrations (including Luke and Millina). I saw it as secondlina place and I've been dying to get my hands on it. *hugs copy*

I also got a new book called "The Steampunk Bible." It's basically explains the history of steampunk all the aspects related to it. It even mentions comics and novels in the genre, Girl Genius being one of them. There's also brief bios on Jules Verne and Edgar Allen Poe and what role they played into it. It's really interesting.

It also gives tips for Steampunk costumes which is going to be useful for me when I make mine.

Also, in other news it looks like the Tales of the Abyss that's being released on the 3D DS is also going to be released in North America too. *grins* I already own the game on the PS2 so I'll probably wait until there are more games out before I get one, but at least this gives this great game more exposure.

Yeah, I'll probably do some scans to pass around later to friends later. ^_~ Both books are fun to go through.

Is it bad to tell you there are three art books compiling Rui Araizumi's Slayers art? Slayers DX, Slayers, and Dra-Mata? It's worth having all three, since each contains art not included in the other.

Oh, I know that, but since I had none of them, I'm so happy to have one.

This (http://cgi.ebay.ca/SLAYERS-ARTBOOK-COLOR-2-POSTER-MANGA-JAPAN-OOP-RARE-/250810566456?pt=FR_JG_Livres_BD_Mangas&hash=item3a65798738) is the one I bought. I probably will buy more later, but I want to pace myself.
