Original art or prints?

Post by go »

Hello Daniel,
Sometimes the Dark Horse Comics website has original art for sale.
Sometimes eBay.
I have 3 extra prints if you are interested:
The Belgium print
The Blue print
and The everyone is trying to kill Usagi print (number 2102 of 2700)
If you are interested in any of these, just let me know.
gosmith@shocking.com is my email.
Frankly, your best experience is to buy original art directly from the Sensei at a conference, book signing, lecture, etc. I feel best when I know the artist is getting the money.
Best wishes to all!

Original art

Hi Daniel:

I agree with Go, the best experience is to see Stan at a show and pick one out yourself. The covers all run $400 or more. The interior panel pages are not available. However, Stan usually brings a selection of 30-40 inked character pieces for less than $90 to San Diego. These are usually unpublished. Mostly Usagi, but other characters as well. Sometimes in combination. I've paid less than $90 for all my Sakai art except for my one cover: a drawing of Tomoe and Noriyuki (one of several used for the design of the statue). a Sensei and young Usagi in pencil, Usagi armed with a spear standing before a full moon, Usagi slashing at a leaf, Usagi looking up into a star-filled night sky.

The second best choice is to wait for the end of con season and Stan might leave his remaining selection to Dark Horse for them to sell. You get to see several offerings and deal with an official outlet.

Best,

Steven
