Collecting The Precious - Weta Workshop New Hobbit Art Book and Art of Film Books Can't Post

hobbit-chroniclesDoSCloaksDaggersa2Our friends at Weta Workshop have a couple of new books for fans to add to their collections. The first book is the next in the Chronicles series, which gives you a great inside look at the task of bringing the many costumes, armour, and weapons that were needed to bring The Hobbit Trilogy to life. The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug Chronicles – Cloaks and Daggers does just that, but it doesn't just cover the second film, it also covers the many designs needed in The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. If you pre-order the book right now you can get it signed by some of the folks who helped bring these films to the big screen!

The second release Weta has for fans is an amazing looking two book set covering the 20 years they have been helping to bring films to life. This inside look is brimming with never-before-seen content covering films such as; The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, The Hobbit Trilogy, Avatar, King Kong, District 9, and much more. You can get The Hobbit Art Book for $39 and Weta: The Art of Film Magic - 20 Years of of Weta for $99.

Me too :) [In reply to] Can't Post

I can't imagine I'll be able to afford the other book, but the Chronicles series are really great. I have none but I've browsed through books 1 and 2, and they are stunning. Woohoo!

The sample pages look good. [In reply to] Can't Post

Love the little bit of what I assume is Dale stuff. I hope there's more of that.
