Sketchbook 5

Stan Sakai · Post by **Stan Sakai** » Wed May 21, 2008 6:43 -0700

I'm still pasting up the fifth sketchbook, but I have drawn the cover. One word--tentacles.

It should be printed in about two anna half weeks.

Can't wait to see it. I plan on getting this and any other sketch books I can get my hands on.

Looking forward to picking this up and the next h/c in person for a change this year

I think it was morna-san who was so mad about tentacles, wasn't it?!
Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing it, too;

Should we get organized for a European distribution system again?
Or would you rather smuggle a few more copies into Europe, Mayhem?

I can do if the demand is there and I have enough spare money (I'm planning on asking Sensei for a commission too)...

This will be available here at the Dojo as well as Comic Con?

Sensei may offer them privately for sale after the Con but that sort of thing isn't very often (needless to say Stan does get very busy!). Your best bet would be to ask someone going to San Diego to get one for you...

As I did last year, I will offer the sketchbooks for sale to Dojo members for a limited time once #5 is printed.

Hopefully, I will take it to the printer next week. It will take a week to ten days for printing, then I will take orders after that for about a month.

You will be able to order Sketchbooks #2-5, $10 each plus $2 postage/handling.

If we give you more for shipping will you ship to Canada as well?
If not, that's ok. Thats the plus side of having a mother-in-law who lives in Ohio!

I can't wait. I bet morna-san will be very happy about the covers.

I just realised I didn't see Guy Davis at the last Novi Comic Con.

did somebody say tentacles!

Yaay I can't wait. Please add me to the list. Unemployed artists don't get to go to cons (unless they start selling a LOT of paintings all of a sudden) sadly.

Oh sweet! Can't wait! Thank you!

Oo! YAY! #5!

Stan would you ship to the UK at all?

That's awesome, as I'll be unable to attend SDCC this year.

If I wanted to order a HC with the sketchbook, would that be possible?

Ok, I'm a huge Usagi fan but don't have and am not familiar with the Sketchbooks (I do have the HB Art of Usagi as well as the Radio Comix Art of Usagi #2) and what they consist of.

Is this link typical of sketchbooks or is what's going to be offered different?
Thanks for any info that would help me with future purchases!
