Your Favourite Toriyama Illustrations
Hey guys! I haven't made a topic in a while now and I've been wondering what some of your favourite Toriyama illustrations are. The illustrations can range from drawings in manga chapters, promotional art, character designs... basically, if it's drawn by Toriyama then you can post it . I'll start of with my favourite:
I absolutely love this, it is my favourite Dragon Ball related illustration ever. The expression on all the Buu's faces range from cocky to silly to hilarious. The Saiyans look badass which is always a plus. It's also a nice touch that each Saiyan that's aiming at a Buu actually had a main battle with that Buu during the Buu saga. I love everything about this illustration, it also helps that the Buu saga just so happens to be my favourite saga in the entirety of Dragon Ball.
Now that I've shared my favourite, please feel free to share yours and express why you chose it.

Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

The cover illustration for Kanzenban volume 13. Goku has a Bruce Lee-esque physique, and I just love it.

This one is actually by Katsuyoshi Nakatsuru, if memory serves. It was for the revival series that ran in V-Jump early on.
