Note they say there is a special art book that you get for the bundle pre order. Not sure if it’s print. There is new art in it that appears no where else.

Update:

To my understanding, you get this regardless of which bundle you preorder.

Update, at the end they say it’s a digital art book.

@LaTia J do folks get this if they do the core digital bundle or does it have to be the digital and physical bundle?

Bit of a shame we don't see a White or Blue. Guessing they are being saved for when the Artbook comes out.

Follow up question: is the art book available for folks ordering at their FLGS? or is it exclusive to DNDBeyond?

What's the use of a digital art book? Here are pretty pictures on my computer? You can't hold it up to show it to your players, you can't put it on the coffee table, and the only way to make it a desktop background is to screenshot it.

Like... I'm not sure I understand what this type of product is for at all. Maybe because I'm not an art-type person.

It's pretty obviously exclusive to DDB, but we'll see what she says.

Clearly. It's for looking at the petty dragon pictures. It doesn't have to be more than that.

Interesting thst they show a tiny bit of the context for the Black Dragon picture in the PHB, seems to be facing the Fighter Class progression chart in the Classes Chapter:

To try and entice people into buying a digital bundle with some (admittedly to me) cool Dragon art.
