Back in 2005, John H. offered to pick up a piece from Stan for me since we would both be at the late, lamented Wizard World Boston a few weeks later. I trusted in John's judgement to pick something cool and John totally delivered with this great depiction of Usagi and Jotaro. I later discovered it is the illustration of the title page for the trade Fathers and Sons! Thanks John!

I picked up this piece featuring Tomoe last year at I-Con along with the following piece, which is a bit rougher than most of Stan's work but I couldn't resist the rare appearance of Usagi's baby momma, Mariko.

Then these are some of the sketches from the hardcover editions:

And, as always, you can see my collection of Usagi sketches by other artists in the link below.

Nice art Colin,

I'm always amazed at your vast UY pieces from other artist as well. Thanks for sharing.

Peace, maka

Thanks maka.

Today I added the picture of Usagi & Jotaro. That was actually the first one I ever had but never got around to scanning it.

My latest acquisition!! I had arranged this commission ahead of time with Stan. He hadn't been sitting at his table when I showed up so I flipped through the pinups for sale in a folder and wondered if he had even gotten to it as he'd said he might not have time. But Stan soon arrived and when I introduced myself he smiled and pulled out this beauty out from behind the table.

I am blown away how well this piece turned out! He said he altered Katsuichi's appearance somewhat since he's going for a more streamlined look.

Thanks so much, Stan!!

I picked up this piece from Stan at SDCC '09. It does an excellent job of showing Gen's physical presence.

I saw that one in his portfolio at SDCC. An excellent choice, I think!

That Gen piece is awesome.
It really makes him look very intimidating.
