Sakai Usagi

So, this is a photo of the finished piece of Stan Sakai as his ronin rabbit Usagi Yojimbo. It was rather fun to do.

Once I started doing the light shading, I realize the more realistic approach just wasn’t going to do the trick. That’s when I broke out the heavy Sharpie and just went for the bold lines.

Doing a cartoon of someone real is a new thing for me. I don’t really have much practice at it. But this was an amusing exercise.

About Sarah

Now residing in Las Vegas, I was born in Michigan and moved to Texas when 16. After getting my Masters degree in English, I moved to Hollywood, because of the high demand for Medievalists (NOT!). As a freelance writer and editor, I found Nevada offers better conditions for the wallet. I love writing all sorts of things, and occasionally also create some artwork.
