Sketchbook 8 (and others) to order

Stan Sakai · Post by **Stan Sakai** » Mon Jul 18, 2011 10:17 -0700

I will take orders for the new UY Sketchbook 8 from now through August. I also have 6 of the 7 previous sketchbooks. If you want one (or more) send a check or money order in US funds to:

Stan Sakai
PO Box 70876
Pasadena, CA 91117
USA

Sketchbooks 2-8 are $10 each. Please add $2 for postage/handling for 1-2 books. Add another dollar for 3 or more sketchbooks. So, if you want to order 1 sketchbook, that would be $12 ($10 for the book + $2 p/h). For 4 books, that would be $43 ($40 for the 4 sketchbooks + $3 p/h).

SKETCHBOOK #1 IS SOLD OUT. Do not ask for it.

Include a note detailing what you are ordering, your mailing address, and Dojo name or e-mail address in case I need to contact you. Make sure it is legibly written.

The sketchbooks are 8.5x5.5 inches, 28 pages self-covered, black and white. They contain mostly behind the scenes art--character designs, thumbnail drawings, and little seen or unpublished art. Book 3 has a step-by-step look at my creative process. Another has an alternate ending to a story arc.

There are usually sketchbooks posted on eBay after the con, but they are priced up to $40 each without p/h.

Remember, I will be at Baltimore Comic-con in August, and at Montreal in September, so you may want to wait.

If you live outside the US and it is a hassle to get US funds, contact me after I return from Comic-con and we'll figure it out as I have done with others in this situation.

Thanks for making these available, Stan. I'll be sending a check this week for several of the sketchbooks. Would you happen to have a copy of the Spanish sketchbook for sale, or are they all long gone? I'd love to get one if possible.
Thanks,
Casey

I do indeed have the Spanish Sketchbooks. They are $16 each ($15 for the sketchbook + $1 postage. They are about 64 pages, so much thicker and heavier than the other sketchbooks.)

do they have different content than the original sketchbooks?or are they sort of collections of the individual books?

These are, for the most part, different than my sketchbooks. Much of the art is b/w covers from the older comic books and pin ups.

There is no rush to send in an order. I won't get home until next week anyway.

Do you have a Spanish one with you at SDCC?

TigerRider · Post by **TigerRider** » Wed Jul 20, 2011 3:09 -0700

I'd like to buy one spanish sketchbook and one #8 sketchbook.

Maybe it would be an option for the european fans to make an order together?
Or, otherwise, is someone here visiting a con in the U.S. and could bring some sketchbooks with him? That would be great.

Greetings,
Jens

Check is in the mail

Check mailed! Enjoy the con. I was hoping to make it this year, but it didn't pan out.
Looking forward to the sketchbooks after you've recovered from San Diego!
