Ballistic Publishing has recently released the latest Exotique art book series. Just after the release, I decided to buy a copy for my Christmas gift just a few months ago. I was so excited when I received it. I got the soft cover version instead since the Special Edition was a bit too much to pay for (and I am not getting much income from my maternity leave). Anyway, I was amazed by the breath-taken CG artwork from top artists around the world. It has inspired me to become a better artist.

In its fourth edition, EXOTIQUE 4 firmly establishes itself as the benchmark for CG character art featuring the work of artists from 45 countries (a record for the EXOTIQUE series).

EXOTIQUE 4 includes more art from China, Korea, Indonesia, and Singapore showcasing a broader range of styles and cultures. The work of 215 highly-talented artists fill EXOTIQUE 4 with 322 pieces of inspiring character art in genres from science fiction, fantasy, and anime, to photorealism and stylized realism.

EXOTIQUE 4 also packs an additional 30 pieces of artwork into 16 more pages than the previous edition.

The Special Edition hardcover includes 4 bonus high-quality prints. The bonus prints also come with the first 300 softcover editions.

Today I just received my May 2009 subscriber issue of ImagineFX magazine in the mail. Lucky for me, it came with the bonus prints that I missed out in the Exotique copy. YAY!

Ballistic Publishing is now calling for entries for the upcoming Exotique 5. I've entered my artwork and hopefully I will get selected.
