Usagi Yojimbo DojoBoard

I don't live anywhere near Stan's convention circuit, but I was able to purchase this piece from someone who did. It is now a goal of mine to get close to Stan somewhere around the country to commission my own companion piece.

My first Usagi art!



Sorry for the terrible image quality. iPhone pic.

Also, I know this may be frowned upon since it's not Stan's art, but it is Usagi art and I do love it. I asked the wonderful Mike DeCarlo to draw me what would happen a few seconds after the first page of Usagi Yojimbo volume 1, issue 1. Here is his Usagi vs Gunichi:

Cool piece by Stan! You are a lucky man to have run into one of those rare people willing to part with some original Usagi art.

And that piece by Mike DeCarlo looks great!

If you ever need to find a good home for it, I would be more than willing to adopt it.

I was going to say welcome to the UY Dojo, but I see that you joined way back in 2007....

Those are two great pieces - thanks for sharing with us!

Thanks guys! Yes, I'm a bit of a lurker. Great to be able to post these though!

Both are great pieces. The one by Stan is just lovely.

This piece is in the new UY Sketchbook #9.

That's great, Stan! Can't wait to pick up a copy!
