ESO Art Book

kensan62_ESO

So is there any chance of getting an ESO Art book covering some of the unreleased concept art that you guys use to create new content with? Absolutely love the art style and would be super excited to see something like this offered.

I would love such a thing for the anniversary!

The last artbook was long ago from the Imperial Edition.

I buy all the art books of my favourite games. I just love seeing what the artists' vision and concepts are and any notes on design, lore or otherwise.

It would be such a treat!

I never tag any devs but @ZOS_Kevin please send this forward for consideration!

Would love an updated Artbook of how far ESO has gotten to today and behind the scenes concepts of all the expansions since Imperial Edition.

We've chatted here and there about this very concept. We'll pass it on to the team to show there is some community interest in this as well.

kynesgrove

Oh Sithis! Thank you!! I would buy it in a heartbeat!!!

ZOS_Kevin

No promises, but we do think this is a really cool idea. Hope we can make it happen at some point!

kynesgrove

Understood! But I'm still keeping my fingers crossed!
The art is absolutely breathtaking and worth every penny to see it published for longevity. (in my opinion for whatever that's worth.)

I agree, I love ESO art and would love to see more concept art.

TheValkyn

Maximize the value of those assets!

kensan62_ESO

Thank you so much for responding! I hope the team thinks its a great idea and moves forward with it. Also if they release it in volumes they could pack more art in each book specific to each expansion!

sunsrest

would also be interested in that, especially if it had all the Lucas Slominski pieces

The Morrowind collector's Edition had what was essentially an Art Book in Naryu's journal. It was very nice, leather bound with fantastic illustrations.

@ZOS_Kevin can the art book include ecology and lore about animals in certain zones? What I love about eso most is the world development. Running around murkmire you br like wtx is that creature.

It's also fun how alchemy isn't just random and certain things grow better under trees like shrooms . Not to mention torchbugs torax only spawns in shadowfen from that one tree as far as I know

Edit

I would be interested in a separate eso ecology book too...but that's probably just me so can be art too

Didn't Summerset and Greymoor also come with miniature art-books? I have all the ESO collector's editions (plus Skyrim and Oblivion CEs), but haven't really looked at all of their content, aside from displaying the statuettes.

I'm also fairly certain Naryu's journal was, in reality, vinyl-bound; no-one would have paid the price for a collector's edition with a journal bound in real leather.

Summerset had Razum-Dar's journal, which is also nice but smaller. I did not get the Greymoor physical edition, so I am not sure on that one.

I know it wasn't real leather, was just having a bit of fun.

I have a guild wars 2 art book and once the elderscrolls one comes out. I will buy it if it's under 50 USD.

kynesgrove

I also have the GW2 artbook it is gorgeous. It presents the art and lore so well.

I collect art books from my favorite games. Would buy ESO art book.

I'd buy it.
It'd make a fine addition to my collection.

I’d buy this in a heartbeat. There is space next to my Tales of Tamriel books 😉

@FeedbackOnly All torchbugs everywhere provide Torchbug Thoraxes, take it from a guy hoarding nearly 1000 of the things, as well as well over 17000 Insect Parts for fishing purposes...

Yeah, I've a serious problem...

There's a tree in shadowfen that spawns it too @JohnMarkESO
