I'd also like one. Haven't been on the computer for a while.

Did you add more pics? I didn't see this before.

More that $999.99? I think my entire collection should be rain or snow pieces.

This one is also nice.

I was hoping it was under $500. Stan's popularity is killing me. :lol:

Gaffey and Mayhem, I added you to the Star Wars print list.

I did add some new photos today. I hope Stan isn't completely sick of me yet since I'll be making my 642nd stop by his booth to get the prints signed. :mrgreen:

I laughed out loud at this one. I pictured Stan looking up from a sketch, seeing you again then a big eye roll followed by him carving tally mark 643 into the folding table at his booth.
I did the same thing at KC last year so I know what you mean...lol

The same has happened once or twice at SDCC for me heh, as I usually got everything done on Preview Night as well...

Wow - great pictures! So much great art to purchase. Gotta be hard to choose. I saw several that I'd love to add to my collection :)
I like the ones on toned paper; I've never seen Stan do those before. Glad you had a great time, Kyle!

Jabba did a great job taking photos of Stan's booth. Here are a few more. A fan made a cool statue of Usagi that Stan signed and drew a nice little portrait of Usagi on it as well. There was also a Usagi virtual reality app on display at the booth where you could watch Usagi battle some ninjas. I think the creators are trying to start a kickstarter in Sept. I believe.

Didn't ask the fan his name. I'm the worst reporter ever.

Fudge! I just remembered Stan found a stack of Usagi Kite Festival posters. :(

That Usagi sculpture is cool. It reminds me of those fat suits they use on the Jimmy Fallon show.

I also forgot to bring the Dojo 20th Anniversary Sketchbooks that Steve published.

I suppose I'll just have to attend another convention in the future to get more stuff. Unless I've been banned from hanging around your table! :lol:

It's so long ago... did Todd sell them in both grey and black, or just grey?
