If you want to catch up on the new Star Wars Canon check out my video explaining the new canon.
It's from this book. You can see the picture on this video (at 11:31).
If you like these, I highly recommend The Art of Star Wars: The Force Awakens which includes a lot of great concept and production artwork (including these), along with a some very interesting insights of the art direction and production.
This is from page 66 of The Art of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which chronicles the development of the story and characters throughout pre-production.
I personally think this would have been a more interesting and unique purpose for Starkiller Base, which would have spared some of the comparisons to the original trilogy. Imagine if the climax of the movie centered around rescuing an entire system of planets that had just lost their sun and were sent hurtling into dark space.

The book comes out in less than a week. It's not that crazy that some guy working in a book store has already seen a copy.
I'd say it's less likely that some guy who very obviously traced an 8 year old DeviantArt drawing for a Mexican magazine had legit inside knowledge of what he looked like. When the same picture happens to be one of the first results on a google image search of Snoke.
Guarantee you this is from this book:

Probably not the final design, but what we'll see in the movie will probably be pretty similar! Amazing!

I want to get him a book of concept art for the Force Awakens. This one
Looks like the Art Book to me.
I definitely like Kylo more than Rey. I'm super HAPPY with the entire cast including Rey. But my heart has always been with the bad guys. I knew I was going to love Kylo the most the moment I saw him. In fact the moment I saw him I looked at my boyfriend and said "You're costuming that." like he didn't have an option, I'm making him a Kylo and he's going to be mine and that's that!
But I LOVE the point you brought up that this movie really makes you sympathize with the bad guys and I loved that. You feel for Finn who is freaked out by the power and cruelty of the first order and you actually feel for Kylo who is struggling between light and dark. Watching the promos and getting hyped, I never imagined I would feel for Kylo. I assumed I'd sit there and think he was amazing but I didn't think I'd connect with him, it was actually kind of nice! I'm circle jerking, I know, I can't help it.
Here's a list of shit you need to pick up:
The visual dictionary
The Art of Star Wars the Force Awakens
And you mentioned having a book with layouts of the death star and such so you may like Incredible Cross Sections.
And from what EVERYONE I know has been telling me, The Force Awakens novelization is a must read if you want juicy little details that weren't made crystal clear in the movie!
Also, if you are not reading the comics. STOP. RIGHT. NOW. AND. READ. THEM!!
In order of priority:
Darth Vader
Star Wars
Princess Leia
Shattered Empire
And read Kanan if you're a Rebels fan. I HAVE the comic I just haven't read that one yet!
But no seriously that Darth Vader comic. The stuff that happens. UGH. NERDGASM. After reading them and re-watching the movies in preparation for TFA I fell in love with the originals all over again. It was like that fresh awesome new love I had for them the first time! So good!
I have this artwork! It shows up in the TFA artbook, would highly recommend.
