I'm looking for some Ken Sugimori art.

And before you link me to Pokebeach or PE2K, they only have 3rd Gen and up Sugimori art.

I'm specifically looking for Generation 1 and 2 art, but nobody has it! Do you guys know where I could find it, or am I out of luck?
 
I have the old Red/Blue guide, which includes the Sugimori art of all of the original 151 besides Mew.

I could scan in all of the 1st-gen stuff the next time I'm able to get to my dad's house... I think I left the Crystal guide at dad's house, also, so I could probably get both 1st and 2nd-gen Sugimori art that way.

I could also take pictures of them with my digital camera, if you don't mind having slightly shaky, low-quality pictures.
 
Well, I'd rather have the scans, but I mainly want it for some general reference while drawing. I kind of want to see how he drew it, because I was thinking of drawing some Sugimori-style pictures.
 
I'll try to take some pictures of them with my camera later just to see how well those turn out; if they're clear enough to use I'll send them to you.

If the pictures don't turn out very well, I'll just wait until I have access to dad's scanner; it'll probably be a while (maybe two weeks or so), though, since I'm not sure if I'll be able to get there this weekend.
 
If you mean Ye Olde Sugimori art from those gens, pre-revamp, then if push comes to shove you can look at the early TCG sets or reprints with the same art. Base Set 2 contains a lot of the older Sugimori stuff, including Mewtwo, scyther, raichu, and a few others. If you just want general Sugimori pokémon pictures, PE2K works fine, with the link Mike the Foxhog gave you.
 
I already said that I didn't want the general stuff. Anyways, I asked at another forum and it turns out Psypoke has them. I now have the address saved so I can look them up whenever I need to.
 
gtsplus.net does have at the very least generation 2 old art. They use the new FR/LG art for generation 1 and not the old RBY art that might have been different or not, I don't know.
