Matt Dixon
The first collection of Matt s work was received with such enthusiastic gusto, we couldn't wait to get this new gallery of his work assembled! Here is a new collection reflecting Mr Dixon s unique combination of talent, humor, and girls with ass-kicking attitude! The big bad wolf has no chance against this not-so-little Red Riding Hood! Typical of Dixon's illustrations, the artist just loves to turn cliches on their head and, well, make sure the girl is indeed on top! Special introduction by actress and fantasy icon Caroline Munro.

Not so much attitude

Here is volume two of girls with a bad case of attitude as they struct their way through this collection of your non-normal pin-up girls. The themes are still many and varied but the bad ass attitude is a bit more tamer I thought. The beautiful, more scantly clad buxom damsels are still gracing the pages, but the fun loving, ass-kicking of volume one is missing. Again the title accompanies the piece, and a note about the model Caroline Munro and her thoughs of Matt is in the front, which makes this collection acceptable. I am a bit disappointed with this volume but still glad to have it in my collection as it still has very good artwork leaning towards the more normal painting you will find elsewhere. Overall it is still worth 4 1/2 stars and should be added to your first volume, otherwise some very gorgeous, buxom and fearless women will be missed.

Decent collection of art, but a short one.

I was not familiar with Matt Dixon's work until I picked up this and Girls on Top Volume 1. It's a pretty thin book. They really should have combined volumes 1 and 2 into one book. There are some paintings that I really love, but there are others that just seem rushed. You don't see consistent detail, which makes me think there's a lot of older material mixed in with newer. Another thing I was expecting from judging the cover images was a little more "mature" material. It's all "good-girl" style pin-up art. There's no nudity or anything graphic whatsoever. I guess when I see girls dripping with blood on the cover, I expected something a little edgier. I don't hate it, but I'm not in love with it either. He does paint his women on the chunkier side, which is great. No supermodels here.

Beautiful book!

This book has a lot of illustrations, in fact every page has a full color illustration! The depictions of the females are very voluptuous,sexy, and a bit whimsical! So, if you like this Kind of art this book is for you. What I didn't like about it is that the author should have included some text about each illustration . I think that would have been nice.

Some cute illustrations

The book is nicely done the illustrations are good the reproduction of them is good quality . I have both of the Girls on Top books by Matt Dixon and they are playful and gruesome at the same time and well done as well.

so it's not a bad deal. The artwork is good but at 48 ...

I picked this up for under $15, so it's not a bad deal. The artwork is good but at 48 pages, it's not a large volume by any stretch of the imagination. Don't pay more than $15 for this.

the same as my review for vol. 1

too thin and boring

Some great artwork

A slim , but really nice book , showcasing British artist Matt Dixon. He has a really nice style { Like a light hearted Gerald Brom!} and paints some enchanting scenes , with great use of colour.

Great artwork

I like this a lot, the artist has a knack of creating slightly cartoony art that is still very lifelike. Particularly his use of colour is impressive and while I admire the subjects I have found myself studying the paint work! Recommend

Super Artwork, aber...

Ich bin ein großer Matt Dixon-Fan und wurde mit diesem Werk keinesfalls enttäuscht - im Gegenteil, man blättert immer mal wieder gerne in "Girls on Top 2", weil es einfallsreiche und farbenprächtige Bilder enthält, dennoch finde ich die Seitenzahl zu dem Preis etwas wenig.

Sexy fun weird

Like the first book, lots of girls in fun situations in Matt s style, quite a bit more supernatural than the last, but good fun, well printed good girl art.
