Fortress_Maximus Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 Anyone know how much of this book is new content versus old? Quote
hachi Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 I love a lot of the anime the characters are in, so will have to budget for this. Quote

Will pick it up for sure Quote

You should have started a new topic for this book since it's not just Macross. I would have missed it if I wasn't looking for images of Lancer in these book topics. Quote

Not really.....folks have been posting illustration collection books in this thread from the start.... Since it is a Macross-specific book thread.....mostly the Macross images tend to get posted from these type of books.... Quote
jvmacross Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Speaking of Mikimoto collected artwork books.....seems this one has never been posted on this thread.....off the top of my head there has to be at least 4-5 Mikimoto collected illustrations books....probably more if you also count the ones with no Macross artwork...... Haruhiko Mikimoto: Innocence ...and some sample illustrations while we all wait for the new Mikimoto collection book to be released.... ...the book also has illustrations from Gundam, Gunbuster, and Orguss.....as well as, several other Mikimoto illustrations of young muses...

Because CDJapan doesn't seem to have a pre-order for it. Quote
jvmacross Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 @hachi...not sure....perhaps they have not posted it yet....I have seen it at other Japanese shops...but not the usual ones.... https://www.play-asia.com/mikimoto-haruhiko-character-works/13/70c2mp?li_medium=default-widget&li_source=LI&ref=liftigniter Quote
hachi Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 I was just wondering. Not that I don't like Amazon JP but I would have preferred CDJ since there's another book there I want to ship together with the Mikimoto book. Anyway hopefully CDJ will surprise me and stock it Quote
jvmacross Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 I either go with Amazon.jp or HLJ.....but yeah....strange it isn't listed on the other usual sites yet... Quote

Best book to get if you want to see all his character designs for M7....plus you will get Kawamori VF designs.....and Miyatake's ship and hardware designs..... https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1025069265&ref=list Edited June 1, 2018 by jvmacross Quote
jvmacross Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 Mikimoto Haruhiko Character Works..... Big beautiful book....if you are a fan of Mikimoto's art, including his non-Macross works, this book will satisfy....if you are just into Macross.....there is not much content that cannot be found in other books....for me, it was disappointing that his most recent character illustrations from Macross the First were completely left out.....it does contain some character designs from several of the Macross games...but again....nothing that cannot be found in other books such as the game strategy guides.....

hachi Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 It's unfortunate I don't have the budget for this one yet. Could you estimate a ratio of Macross vs non-Macross designs? Quote

jvmacross Posted June 23, 2018 Posted June 23, 2018 Doubt it.....I'm sure it'll come up on Mandarake at some point too....good luck! Quote

hachi Posted July 12, 2018 Posted July 12, 2018 So glad I waited and passed on Mikimoto Haruhiko Character Works. Though if I got more money I'd probably still buy that in the future. Hopefully this new one doesn't get sold out too fast. Quote
jvmacross Posted July 12, 2018 Posted July 12, 2018 Hopefully this one will include his Macross the First works... Quote
