Back Cover Art wanted...

Post by Ponyboy »

Does anyone have the original artwork to the back of issue #95 (I think it's issue 95).

See pic. Would love to add it to my collection as my first Sakai piece! :D

cheers,
Brandon

That's also the image used for the Dark Horse shop sign. No idea who bought the artwork (which would have been in b/w anyhow), probably a piece Stan had in his portfolio at the time.

Ooo thanks for that, Mayhem. I didn't know it was a DH sign piece. I haven't seen the piece on CAF. It may still be in Stan's collection?

I sold it awhile back. I believe someone on the Dojo bought it. I could redraw it as a commission, if you are going to be at San Diego.

Hey Stan! Sorry, I never even saw this message.

Thank you for saying so, but I live in New Zealand. Getting to an American con is, well, pretty much impossible for me given the costs. Thank you for the offer, though. :)
