The original Blade Runner Sketchbook full of concept art from Ridley Scott's classic has been out of print for decades. Fortunately, one dedicated fan decided it was time to put the whole book online. This black-and-white trip through Rick Deckerd's dystopian future can now be enjoyed by all.

The book itself contains commentary and art from Ridley Scott himself as well as Syd Mead and other concept artists for the film. Scattered throughout the book are items that didn't quite make the final cut. Just one example is the Cryo-Crypt where the Tyrell chairman is attempting to preserve his body indefinitely.

Below are just a small taste of the incredible work contained within the book. The full book can be found at issuu.com

Grif does have a point though, it doesn't make sense when they do prequels after the original story and the tech is better.

@Deadshot Why do you say this thing to him when you know he will kill you for it? Very valid point he made on this, it's sick watching Star Trek and Star Wars thinking the exact same thing.
