Thanks. I based the shading style (and colors) on the Full Color releases of the manga.
Here's Gohan as well with the other two. He didn't turn out so well face-wise (he looks too much like his father). I'm thinking of doing Kuririn, Vegeta and Bulma as well as a Namekian landscape to finish.

Still looks pretty good. Are these freehanded or did you use a reference? Either way, I like it. It looks like a touch of personal style in there. Definitely distinguishable as DB art, but with a little bit of a unique flavor. I'd like to see how your Vegeta looks.

Assuming you mean any kind of reference and not specific images of the characters using the same poses, I'd say yes, I used some.
I had to look at a few images of Piccolo to get the cape/turban and face right; same thing for Goku's kanji.
Other than that I did that without any references (including the poses, I used to have some trouble doing them, especially when doing it digitally but for some reason this time they came out easily).

I did mean specific references, in the same poses, but just doing what you did, with a general reference, that really is pretty good.

I thought this fan art was great. Not very complex to do but it''s cool IMO. Waste of 5$ though.....

I've seen that floating around on Facebook before. It is neat. I mean, if Lincoln can be imagined as a vampire hunter, why can't he be a Saiya-Jin in some other story as well? :lol:

The characters look pretty stiff but it's good otherwise.
Vegeta: "Funny... I seem to recall Kakarot being fed the same information right before he transformed; the distinct look on your faces when he went Super Saiyan didn't exactly inspire confidence. One does not predict or calculate power like ours."

Really? It's dragonball z. You know, where fights escalate to the point of decapitation and mass genocide?

Don't get livid. Through Dbz might be action. It still wasn't aggressive in terms of art work and animation :lol: . It was nice art. But it was kinda over the top aggressive.

Not sure how my comment constituted as livid. But yeah, dbz is totally not over the top aggressive. My apologies.

Wasn't really aggressive animation. Voice acting was maybe. But the animation wasn't........just saying. It's a good artwork. Just saying a little aggressive
