It looks like I started a little artbook sharing revolution. A lot of other people have been posting really good artbooks recently. Thanks to everyone who shares books they have on here. It help since us in NA are really stiff armed when it comes to getting all the good shit japan gets. And you might as well not even dream of getting any of them translated. It takes the stars aligning for us to get maybe have one Japanese or Korean artbook translated a year. So there is no telling weather any of these will be translated at all. So having the books at all and being able to partially translate stuff myself is a huge for me. That is mostly the reason I am even sharing these. Most people don't have the time or desire to go down the deepest rabbit hole in existence to find these books. Having them in a place where people can actually easily find them and get whatever use they possibly can from them is comforting for me. These books can help a lot of people get a hold of concepts they are struggling with. Or maybe they just want to see how an artist they admire goes through their process. You never know how these can help others. If these books help anyone in their journey to improve their skill or hone their style, then my goal has been achieved. And who know, someone might take it upon themselves to translate these themselves.
