Dragon Ball Online Artbook
Hey everyone. I see a lot of images coming from a book of some kind of Dragon Ball Online. Like these:

or
Does this mean there's a Dragon Ball Online Artbook around?? If so, what's it called and is there a way to purchase it? I love the Dragon Ball Online artstyle and how varied the game is and I would love to see more if there is any

Re: Dragon Ball Online Artbook
These specifically come from a Taiwanese guide book. TDC (maybe owns it?) and/or Herms (definitely owns it) can probably give a little more info on it.

Re: Dragon Ball Online Artbook
It is not an artbook or story guidebook but a guidebook for the actual MMO. The artwork that is present in the game is relatively few and sporadically placed throughout the book. Most of it is in-game screenshots and paragraphs which detail how to complete the early quests in the game. I got mine from Amazon awhile ago but the page was taken awhile ago.
I don't know if you can still find it anywhere other than like a video game based second hand Taiwanese bookstore. But I'm sure that isn't a real thing because I just made that up for this post.

Re: Dragon Ball Online Artbook
Out of curiosity: does this book have any other Toriyama's artworks other than the three posted above?

Re: Dragon Ball Online Artbook
Definitely! However I am unsure if it's actually Toriyama artwork Or just people imitating his style, because there is A LOT of artwork for this game Not all in this book though, but still, I mean have you SEEN the amount of variation on just Saibaimen alone???emperior wrote:Out of curiosity: does this book have any other Toriyama's artworks other than the three posted above?
Re: Dragon Ball Online Artbook
Yeah I've seen many artworks from DBO (there's a thread on Kanzenshuu full of them, and I also saw Toriyama's design for Mira and Towa somewhere) and many definitely resemble Toriyama's new style, but I could tell just from the way muscles were drawn that they weren't from Toriyama.worldmonsters wrote:Definitely!
