Following the success of Capturing Archetypes, Volume 1 and Volume 2, this deluxe third volume showcases not only beautifully photographed collectibles but also discussions and documentation exploring the creation of these pieces from the artists themselves.
Capturing Archetypes, Volume 3 is a loving homage to the fandoms that Sideshow Collectibles represents. Whether it’s instantly recognizable characters from movies, comic books, and pop culture or Sideshow’s original creations—such as the marvelously macabre Court of the Dead—every piece, from Spider-Man to Catwoman, is created with the passion, devotion, and enthusiasm of true fans.
The latest in digital rendering techniques meet classical sculpture and fine art in Sideshow’s studio, where every medium and every tool, old or new, is dedicated to one purpose—the crafting of the highest quality museum-worthy collectibles. Each page of this stunning art book celebrates the countless hours of hard work and dedication put into the creation of each of Sideshow’s masterpieces. Featuring iconic and universally beloved characters from franchises such as Star Wars, DC Comics, Marvel Comics, Indiana Jones, and others, this collection celebrates Sideshow Collectibles’ astonishing ability to capture the essence of archetypal characters in its phenomenal art pieces.
Readers will be able to step inside the world of a “modern renaissance studio” and see their favorite characters brought to life by master craftsmen and women.
