Naga Paperback – January 1, 1997

awesome art

This is a MUST HAVE book for erotic or bondage artcollectors. Sorayama's work is simply amazing. His imagination andattention to detail are incredible.There are many very explicitimages. Many pictures contain wild and creative bondage; others have unusual piercings displayed in unique ways. A lot of the piercings are in very intimate places. A few women hold whips.Some of the other subjects include mermaids, women with snakes & other creatures, women in water, ponygirls and women urinating. Though some pictures contain metal work, there is less in this book than previous ones.My only wish for this book is that the pictures were all contained to one page. In my opinion, much of the artwork was somewhat distorted by being spread across two pages.

Gorgeous artwork but it suffers somewhat from large pictures being split between two pages. Overall a great book of his work. Not for the easily offended.

Naga is one of the greatest works of Sorayama yet. Your collection of fantasy art is not complete without this selection. His realism and techniques are unparalled; I kept waiting for the pictures to come to life! The only problem I had with the book is that many of the pictures contain images of bondage and violence, which I disagree with - the victims were in every case female - but if you can look past that, the book itself is truly a work of art.

Hajime Sorayama is an incredible artist. His work speaks for itself. I truly wish I could give this book 5 stars, but many of the images are spread across 2 pages, so the binding interrupts and distorts the image. For an artist of this caliber, I'd expect the publisher to understand what this does to the quality and integrity of the image.

If you know and like Sorayama's work, this book is a must. The size and the printing quality are very good and this is essential to really appreciate his work. There are very different works and of course some are (meant to be) shocking, but if you are looking for a "hot" book, this is one to buy !

what can i say that hasnt been said already? this man makes art into an artform not just 2d depictions but almost 3d. the female form that he uses doesnt have the defined muscles like most of the other artists i know; he focus on sensuality and sexual inclinations of the art viewer's mind and not on the narrow-minded. i would model for him any day.

Superb pictures of beautiful women who are pure fiction, of course, but super realistic ones. A lot of theses pictures show sado and bondage scenes which are definately not meeting everybody's taste. But those who purely enjoy viewing beautiful women in "surrealistic dreams have become true" scences will just love this book.

Even though there is some repetition, as with most Sorayama books, size really matters (14" x10") to appreciate the art to its full extent. It is a slightly "softer" version than "torquere". For those who like Sorayama, size makes all the difference and for those who want to explore his books for the first time, sit down and take the time to look fully at the meaning and details of the art because first impression on some of those may lead your opinion the wrong way.Again, size makes all the difference!

この作者（空山　基氏）はどの作品も丁重に描けておりきれいな作品ばかりで非常に良いです。

本はいい本が、アマゾン会社の非常にいいの評価があって信じて買ったが、失望した。本は糸が絞った跡がある、非常にいいところか、良いのうちに入らない。5000ぐらいかかって損したと思う。
