Insight Editions is publishingThe Art of Blizzard, a 352-page hardcover book which spans twenty years of history at the studio behindWarcraft,StarCraft, andDiablo.
It features “nearly 800 pieces of concept art, paintings, and sketches,” with commentary provided by Blizzard’s ownsenior VP of story and franchise development Chris Metzen; senior art director Sam Didier; and VP of art and cinematic development Nick Carpenter.
The book isn’t due out until October, but pre-sales are going to be offered during San Diego Comic-Con this July 12 – 15. I also spottedThe Art of Blizzardover on Amazon. Looking through the company’s old concept art, I’m reminded of how much I love the artwork for the earlyWarcraftgames. Those were the days.
