Beautiful

I love it so much, has beautiful drawings and models with so much detail. These films are a huge inspiration to me so I'll happily display it on my shelves

Weta workshopn have some of the best artist for concept

The crafting of the two films of Narnia is all here. We have traditional concepts, digital concpets, sculpture, and some photography compositions for background scenery. All the drawings are very worked, and there are some drawings of the weapons, that they have care a lot. The presentation is great and the book have so many pages. Recommended.

For Those Of Us...

I know it is probably not very economically smart of me right now (it's not a stereotype about college students being poor, trust me), but I am big on collecting "making of" and "art of" books, mostly for Disney movies. This was no exception. When I saw it was on sale, I had to get it. There are many beautiful photographs and some very interesting concept art. A must-have for the collector of books about the making of various Disney movies.

Art from Narnia: Prince Caspian

I loved this movie even better than the first. This book showcases some amazing artwork and CGI images that shows how the various creatures and landscapes were created. A beautiful book with tons of pictures and art.

Crafting Of Narnia WETA Studios book

This book is a must have for fans of Narnia. There is alot in this book which cannot be seen in the movie and wouldn't otherwise be seen except in a book of this type. From prototype art to maquettes, to fine detail on props, it can be truly appreciated in this book and brings attention to the finer work that was undertaken in the movie. It brings about even more the appreciation of characters and design.
