Es un libro muy hermoso , me encanto aunque vino un poco roto en la parte de la pega entre el lomo y las hojas , las ilustraciones de la artista son hermosas
Beautiful book
3D Total Publishing truly has an impressive book collection. I didn't know one could get love bombed by books but it really happened to me, cross my heart and hope to die!
Their collections have outstanding quality, not only in reference to content, layout and design but also in the physical quality of the books themselves.
I find their content to be spot on and relevant to art today, as a multi layered medium that ties together hands on craftsmanship with the complexity of high level digital artistry. The books are rich in the “know how” and give a pallet of styles from a collection of professional artists.
I was surprised by the level of detail around their products, many books included a complimentary high quality print of the artist work, and some books were autographed by the artist themselves. What a treat!
Their customer service is impeccable and personal. I was really aware that there is a human on the other side, funny how the absence of AI can make a human feel valued.
I’ve been wanting this book for a while and when it finally arrived I wasn’t disappointed. There are great tutorials on about how to paint and I love the free print
This book is a unique way to discover more about heilkala's universe. It's so great tosee the backstage of the illustrations and the inspirations of the artist. A big fan of Heikala and her book !
