My oldest grandson is 9 years old and is absolutely fascinated with Cuphead. He plays the video game, he draws pictures of him everywhere, and is fascinated with the animation of Cuphead.
So when he found this book, he put it at the top of his Santa list. I asked his mother if we, his grandparents, could get it for him. And as I’m looking at the book, which is beautiful, I can begin to understand his fascination for Cuphead.
This beautiful coffee table book tells the story of how, through artwork, Cuphead was created through the vintage look and feel of the 1930s. Each frame is hand drawn and shows the early concepts, production work, and all of the ideas that went into creating Cuphead.
It’s a wonderful video game complete with Cuphead and Mugman. It is clean and stylish and neither me, nor his parents, have any problem with his fascination for the characters, the games, and now the history and the artwork of Cuphead.
The book may be a little advanced for a 9 year old, but this is a family who reads voraciously. Highly educated and well rounded. He will grow with this book and who knows what dreams will become a career or a lifetime love of vintage art. There’s no doubt that this will be his favorite gift. He talks about this book constantly and understands that “it is very expensive and important “.
I see that there are additional books on his favorite video game. I’m loving nothing more than to begin his collection of vintage art and video drawing with his favorite characters.
