TAS, If that's from 96-97 I'd love to ee what you can do now! Good job!
I've posted more stuff in my introduction thread, but none of its as good as that Gohan pic, cause even though I drew that when I was like 13 (now I'm 22) it was from looking and copying a DBZ calander picture, ie even though I drew it I was looking at something and I guess I've always been good at doing that, but I don't like doing it (especialy now) and haven't in years, infact the last time I drew something in that sense was probaly in the late 90's (like 1999) but I guess some of my freehand stuff looks decent.
Just some examples of more recent things...
Trunks (Redux)
This is my version of Trunks drawn very crudely (on notebook paper with a pen before I colored it) and while very similar to the original its also fairly diffrient. Basicly the thought behind it for me was what if Trunks' look was a reflection of his future, ie a more hardned, rough, gritty, etc, look, so the hair is messy (though a modern style) and as I don't like lack of detail I filled in his jacket with various extra lines and what not. Then there's the hoodie, which is zipped down to show off a bit of Trunks' chest, much like his standard tanktop. Then there's a number of other things in the design you can't see (because it's only from the chest up) like various patches on the jacket, knee pads on the pants, etc, etc.
A progression of my Trunks (Redux) from 2004 to 2006.
ZeroH
An original character design from like a year or two ago, however the character has since had a name change and minor design changes.
