Wow, you guys have such amazing pieces! I can't believe some of you have the original pages of the Usagi books!! From what I gather, Stan usually doesn't part with them very easily. Super cool! If you are referring to the two pages I posted, they were both unused pages www.comicartfans.com is still a great art database with a ton of awesome artwork hosted there, and it is searchable. As far as something like pinterest, I have not visited it enough to know anything about it.

Wow, it's still pretty cool though!
Okay, I've been on there a couple of times. It seems like a pretty neat site! Maybe I'll create a branch of the Dropbox to include Original Art/Covers and we can compile it somewhere in a more aesthetic fashion. Probably sometime down the line.

Two hardcovers from Stan's online store arrived the other day, with these awesome sketches I requested in them: These are great! I especially like the Sasuke one, as he is my favorite supporting character. Thank you to dhfujii and Stan!

First, welcome to the CCF and the Annex Second, I love this piece! I'm always a sucker for Usagi/Jotoro pieces. Did you digitally color this yourself for your avatar? It's interesting how many fans seem to request sketches of Usagi, Jotoro, and Tomoe together. Wish fulfillment for all the fans who wish Usagi could just settle down already?

Stan posted some pretty cool commissions for the London convention next week, and one of them has Usagi, Tomoe, and Jotaro ice-skating. There's also a really cool Sasuke and Sanshobo team-up piece!

Yes, I made a colored version of the commission myself. I asked for the three characters in a festive mood, and Stan proposed to use the Boys' day festival as a setting, because of Jotaro's presence, and because the carps flags which are typical of this celebration would look nice in the background. The commission was a gift from my parents for my last birthday (I got to choose my own gift). Probably wish-fulfullment on my part for Usagi to find happiness, if only in a commission.

I love when Stan draws himself. He captures his own spirit so wonderfully. And, completely off topic, I've begun reading your blog and am enthralled. I'd love to know more about how it got started. Pursuing happiness without expecting happiness...mind blown for the day.

Here are a few of my original art pieces by Stan: I got this piece from SDCC 2014, which happened to be my very first comic book convention. I had never commissioned anything before this show. WonderCon 2015. This is the second commission I got from Stan. The colored version is from a scan of the original b/w art that I colored digitally myself, just to see if I could do it. These two I picked up at a craft show that Stan was attending to support Julie.
