Going to do the lottery tonight, please check my blog for more info, thanks!


Kumon written in kanji means agony, I am gonna do a run of Kumon and donate the money to hopefully give some relief to some people up north of us. I'll put up a picture later of the sample with more details.

Here is Yuriko's finished header art sans text. Sweet.

Metallic blue, silver, black and gold on a white base. I'm doing this with my wife, Yuriko, she will be doing the header card and all the money from sales will be going to the victims of the earthquake and tsunami last week here in Japan. Yuriko is looking into where to donate but it will be direct to a place here in Japan. I will put these up on my blog when they are ready to be sold.

UPDATE: Added a red ring to the eye. Yuriko is drawing the header art now and I will also include a 1 1/4" pin badge.

I'm excited for this, I emailed you a while ago about where I can get a kumon. I found one at lulubell and ordered it, but I want to get this one too!!!

Glad to hear you're ok. Just saw ur flicker pic of the empty store shelves :(

I have friends in Chiba too and I'm so worried about them, though they say they are find...

Anyways, on a lighter note, it be awesome if it was GID to represent hope in the dark....

Take care Dennis!!!

The header looks great especially in black and white. Also, I like the subtle touch of the red eye.

Hope you guys are hanging in there.

The header art is fantastic. Seriously think about selling it as a print by itself.

Just have to say, ever since I got this guy, I constantly find myself picking it up. Such a beautiful and refined sculpt, you can really see how much care and time was put into it.

What Mark said- that is a wonderful, frameable image!
Alternatively, Dennis, you might consider leaving the art side of the header text-less... I don't imagine I'm alone in saying that I would frame the header itself, if that were the case.

I cannot wait to grab one of these!
Again, GREAT job on them!
