It appears that there was an earlier edition of Melange before this. There's a "+32 pages" sticker pasted on the cover for this edition published by Akileos. The book's a 160-page hardcover.Dean Yeagle is a cartoonist and character designer with background in animation. This book collects his diverse character designs, nude female figure drawings, pin-ups and his Playboy cartoons with some unused roughs.The art and characters are beautiful. About half the book is on the character Mandy, a playful busty blonde - she's on the cover with her dog. Even the Playboy cartoons are amusing, and I can't say the same for other artists.It's a great book for those into character designs and pin-up art.(There are more pictures of the book on my blog. Just visit my profile for the link.)
Having purchased the original printing of Dean Yeagle's Mélange, I was pleased to see that the new release not only had much better color reproduction - very vibrant, full-page illustrations - but it also had much better distribution with subjects sorted accordingly. Of course, our beloved Mandy gets a lion's share of the book and the additional pages, while some are familiar versions from previous 'Scribblings' editions, are never-before seen/published sketches.If you don't have this edition of Mélange, I urge you to purchase it to add to your collection. If you already own the first copy, buy this one anyway. The price isn't too bad for what you're getting. (28MAY2011)
Dean Yeagle is one of my favorite pin-up artists, and this generous collection is one of his best. The work is probably about 95% pin-up art, but we get some variety with early commercial work he did, and less cartoonish nude model drawings. The meat of this book, of course, is the pin-up art, and primarily the Mandy section. Mandy, of course, is Yeagle's classic young nymph, probably in her very early twenties and thus in the spring of her life. She is unbelievably sexy, all the more so because she is so entirely innocent. We also get some great material that he did for Playboy. What I love about his art is that it manages to be completely hot while also staying entirely good-natured. There is nothing sleazy on display here. Yeagle merely loves the female form and celebrates it in his own way. In that way, it is very much like the work of early masters like Elvgren.Best of all, the presentation is fantastic. The book has a solid hardcover binding, and the gorgeous full-color art is presented on high-quality glossy paper.There is nothing to hate on here. Get it if you appreciate pin-up art at all.
There are a number of Dean Yeagle's publications out there -- five "Scribblings", a Sketchbook, three Mandy books, some others -- but all are fairly slim volumes and fairly pricey for their size (even before several of them went out of print and got even more pricey!). MELANGE is a great opportunity to see what Yeagle's work is all about and a better value for your buck. There's a lot of his Mandy character, plus Playboy cartoons both published and rejected, animation, sketches, finished works, other characters, and more. Good art, good value, good book. The only downside is that you may decide you need to have all Yeagle's other stuff too ...
Dean Yeagle has been one of my favorite artists for years, and this book confirms why. Filled with sexy drawings, fun cartoons, and great commentary, this artbook is a definite treat and I am delighted to have it in my collection!
I love art, especially character design. There is so much beautiful art in here, and it's a big inspiration. The characters are all very animated, the faces very expressive. Great purchase and worth every penny!
Yeagle work is both sexy and funny, and as he says on the cusp of innocence and sensuality. Fun and erotic, great work. The book includes cartoons meant for children, a section on Mandy, and Playboy cartoons used and rejected. For those who enjoy this work I highly recommend 'Mandy Godiva"
