So, while we had to cancel our vacation because someone in the family got sick (unfortunately, I got bitten by the bug myself now :/), I thought I might at least finally receive my copy of the Lies of P artbook, because Amazon claimed it would be delivered on November 21st.

But nope - they state the delivery date as December 21st now. 😭😭😭😭😭

I seriously have no idea why Germany, of all countries, is getting the short end of the stick with the deliveries. Like, there's not a single German vendor able to mail it - it's like the entire stock just vanished.

It's freaking depressing, but for some reason, LoP release dates always seem to be cursed for me. Back the game initially released, I was on vacation so I couldn't play it - and now, when I actually would've been around to receive the artbook, they won't deliver it. -_-

I fully plan to dig my teeth into the artbook once I get it though, whenever that will be. (I got a glimpse of it in a flip-through video, and there's definitely some interesting stuff in there.)

What do you mean my LoP artbook came right after I left home?

What a cruel world.

I can't wait to get home look through it. 😭🙏❤️

YESSS ARTBOOK YES

A LOP art book is on the way!! + notes on korean interview with art direction team

The official LOP Art book is currently in production!! (from this set of interviews) [link]

TONS of amazing content over at korean language interview with the art team!! I wanted to share because I think yall would really enjoy. If you like, you can just use google translate to read it pretty effectively. I myself am using google translate. (they also actually discuss pinocchio's freckles!!)

LOP development started with only 30 people and at time of interview had grown to 69 (there's another article i will dig up later that mentions they ended at around 100 people?). Interesting to me because that's really not a ton of people for a project of this size

funnily enough, the art team claims they were never trying to make pinocchio "attractive" or beautiful. They focused on creating a character that was both artificial and human, as though he was in between a doll and a human being [I reckon he just kind of turned out that way, probably because of the inclusion of said doll-like features. LOOK AT THOSE DOLLY LASHES AND GLASSY EYES.]

they also talk about the freckles here!! Art Director's answer on the freckles:

basically that geppetto gave him freckles because he wanted to humanize pinocchio, since he is "ultimately a doll" [i find this kind of tragic]

More on Pinocchio's character design: REALLY interesting response that actually, Pinocchio is more "flawed"

Q. I also had the feeling that [he was] a typical idol who was pretty and handsome. A. Art Director Cha Byeong-jun: Actually, if you look at the facial shape, Pinocchio in <The Lie of P> has more imperfections.

Antonia herself as a metaphor for the "fallen krat", a once powerful and prosperous city now fallen to ruin.

Europeans! The Art of Lies of P is now on Blackwells!!!

[no-face-no-shame]

I pre-ordered the Lies of P artbook - it's currently on sale, so if anyone wanted to get it but thought it's too pricy, now is your chance!

[anonymergremlin]

This may sound dumb but I wished people would post stuff from the artbook under a specific tag or something. I really didn't want to be spoiled since mine is coming later :/ (so sad, they sad it would be there before my birthday. My birthday was the 13th meeeh). As someone who writes for LoP I really don't wanna mute the tag but... Yeah...
