  2. Contents (from “BOOK” database)

    In this book, a selection of Hajime Sorayama's original drawings are printed in full size (B2/B3 size) and cropped to book size. In an era where CG illustrations are mainstream, please take a look at Mr. Sorayama's super illustrations, created using only brushes, paints, and talent, his brush strokes, shortcuts, and lighting and lens effects. In addition, on the black frame pages of all non-cropped figures, a 10cm scale is placed on the side of the page so that you can see the reduction ratio.
