Summary: Perfection. All out perfection.
Review: As a huge fan of Boris Vallejo, I mena look at my Screen name, i recomend this book to anyone who likes art. The beautiful paintings depicting human bodies and the beautiful and haunting jewelery complement each other very well. This is a great reference book for any artist. I'm very happy to own it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: An Excellent Anatomical Resource for the Artist
Review: Boris Vallejo is perhaps the best contemporary painter of realistic human forms. His paintings render a breathtaking view of human musculature and his anatomical correctness is near perfect. Any budding artist, or any veteran artist needing a refresher, should buy this book to learn a thing or two about the construction of the human animal. The figures are portrayed from a variety of angles and there is a great variety of male and female models. However, many of the paintings have a similar composition and feel to them. In all, a stupendous art book for the serious/novice artist or the interested fantasy art fanatic. Enjoy!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I expected more
Review: Everyone who likes fantasy art would be satisfied of this book. I like Boris' works. It contains veriety of pictures that prove his great imagination. From exotic women to horrible monsters with their fighting tools. I expected to see more drawing works of him but I found only one. Many works in the book are great and some are not. However, if you are the fan, you must have it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Perfection. All out perfection.
Review: I have no idea what the person from dallas is talking about. I loved this work of Boris. I espsecially loved the Sections on the mythical beasts, and women of wonder. This is my best Boris book yet. I challenge any artist to match boris in the worlds of magic and fantasy. A definate must for all boris and fantasy fans.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Beautiful Artworks
Review: I love this book because it has lots of beautiful paintings from the author. I like this book more than the Titans. The artworks from Titans doesn't stand out or look as clean as the ones from in this book. This book has pictures ranging from mythical beings and animals, to futuristic designs. The disadvantage about this book is the non appealing art cover and its high price. Overall, it's an excellent reference book.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Bellfest
Review: The amazing world of Boris Vallejo is condensed down into this picture book of god like bodies and fairytail fantasy scenes. Shown are some of his movie work, clothing ad work, Franklin Mint and his most favorite subject, his wife, Julie Bell.

There are some comedy moments of his works as well, including a portrait of the then president of the United States, Bill Clinton. He explains that some of his works have been described as too relvealing esspecially of his wife Julie. But as the pictures show when one gets over the fact, they are quite beautiful.

A book mainly for the older reader, artist or Vallejo fans only.
