    Erick Scarecrow Teases Old School Kaiju Bloody Dizigin Print

    The other day an interesting piece of art hit my inbox from Erick Scarecrow and not much was said about it. All that was told was that it will be a print that will come with the Old School Kaiju Bloody Dizigin colorway that is a collaboration with Monster Kolor, which we showed you back at NYCC, and that it is designed by Yajima. The only other bit of information was that this piece and print will be releasing in early 2012, but what I’m most curious about is the art style here and the inclusion of Yajima as the artist.

    Well, it’s Kamen Rider’s 40th anniversary and New Zealand artist Paul Shih has created a new print in celebration! The Japanese American Cultural and Community Center held a show featuring lots of Kamen Rider tribute art and Paul Shih created this print of the Sushi Kaiju and Kamen Rider hanging out and kicking ass. Done in an ukiyo-e style like the last Sushi Kaiju print, this print features Kamen Rider and Sushi Kaiju saving a town from some bandits. This 12″ x 12″ print is an edition of 30 pieces and is available from Paul’s webstore right now as well for the low price of $35!

The new Sushi Kaiju Dalea edition will be an edition of 10 and due to its limited nature it will be a lottery only for purchasing one.

The only thing I’m sad about with this release is that not everyone can get one, but considering how much time, effort, love, and care Paul puts into each of these, it’s quite understandable, so instead I’ll just wish all those entering the best of luck! If you want either of these for yourself, the Sushi Kaiju Dalea edition will be $65 and the print is, as previously mentioned, $35, both excluding shipping, and the <a href="http://www.paul-shih.com/art/sushi-kaiju-releases/" onclick="javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackEvent','outbound-article','http://www.paul-shih.com']);" target="_blank">lottery is now open</a>.
