Hyper Weapon 2014 + Future Weapon AS
Makoto Kobayashi is still active today, working on designs for animations such as the Gundam series and Space Battleship Yamato, as well as creating three-dimensional works for the Hyper Weapon series.
This book is the first book version of the legendary series "Future Weapon AS," which Kobayashi published in the magazine "Monthly Hobby Japan" for three years from 1988, and which gained immense popularity but was not published in book form for nearly 30 years.
The many passionate three-dimensional works that reflect the atmosphere of the serialisation period at the end of the 1980s, and Kobayashi's unique storytelling, full of fantasy and unique realism, have a charm that never dates even when viewed with today's eyes.
This is a must-have book for a wide range of readers other than modelers, such as science fiction fans and people in the film industry.
*This book is a re-arrangement of the articles serialised in "Monthly Hobby Japan" from 1988 to 1991.
