Cooler vs Son Goku Special: Prince of war | Fan manga by an amateur

Post by Captain Strawberry » Thu Oct 20, 2016 7:36 am

This is a retelling of the first Cooler movie by an amateur and this is to develop my drawing skills (before I do my main project).

So I hope you don't mind if I slowly compile my drawings here, also I'm a procrastinator...

About the manga: [spoiler]Why are you making this? Other than your reasons above.

The movie was 40 minutes long so they didn't have time to add everything. One of the key changes I want to make is Goku going SSJ much earlier on and Goku and Cooler having a more even fight.

Are the side characters going to get more involved?

Yeah, since it takes place here in the 3 year time skips prior to the Androids showing up then here is before a lot of the characters started to decline in their training so it's one of the things I want to do.

Is this very faithful to the movie?


Probably not very much so. Most likely the same structure but I might change course as I go along since I'm not heavily planning it. Also Gohan's pet won't be here so it will be a bit different.

What's one thing we can expect to be different?


My art style since I'm not going to be very faithful to Toriyama's artstyle because I want to do what I gravitate towards most as an artist/individual.[/spoiler]

Feel free to give drawing feedback

No I didn't abandon this if anyone's wondering, still working on it... very slowly. I'll share the first 5 pages of my amateur work

I look forward to it, Captain Strawberry. And I can relate to you making a fan comic to practice draw. I've done the same, though so far I haven't finished anything worth sharing... yet.

I'm very sorry.

I made this thread like almost a month ago and nothing to show.

I'm not satisfied with a lot of my panels and because of my inexperience, I very much struggle drawing certain angles and positions and end up drawing something sloppy.

Yes, the title says "by an amateur" but I want to feel satisfied with my panels

Looking at Toyotaro's Super drawings really inspires me even though it's a different art style

However, I'll show this but I need a looot more practise before I can even draw this fan manga
