I'm interested in books that contains layout/background drawings. But I have hard time finding those books.

"The Art of Final Fantasy IX" would be a good example as it carries a lot of rough concept ideas of many layout drawings.

Is there a book that's at least mostly filled with layout and background concept drawings? I'm more interested in rough and concept drawings than clean/finished versions. It would be even better if they are related to animation.

Thanks!

The Art of Star Wars books are pretty good.
