This way he can accurately fit the story into however much space he has got.

For the thumbnail part, he has often demonstrated this by taking a member of the audience and using them as the subject matter instead. So I was called upon one time as said subject matter, but given Stan knows me pretty well, he was able to just launch into the process without having to ask me any questions or pick an interest to cover

(yes, obviously I got to keep it!)

Having said that, it doesn't quite, almost but not quite, beat the fact I've actually been drawn in an issue of Usagi as well...!

Dude, that's awesome! Would you say the story depicted in the photo you just posted is an accurate representation?
