Gonna be direct with ya. My progress on my projects have stalled. Combination of things really. Mostly lack of motivation, and also the fact that I'm away visiting family. Not giving up, just moving slower than expected. I do have a new W.I.P. to show as consolation. Very happy with the face :3

I was trying to get the cover fully colored and put together so I could properly announce this project, but I've fallen behind on that front. So, as another appetizer, have these sketches :)

Hey. Been gone for a bit. Started working on something and have been hyper-focused on it. Here's a taste of what's to come. (Hint: This is cover art)

For fun, I made a some mock-ups of Vegeta and Nappa's first appearance that gives them their proper colors. I know Z Kai already does this, but I wanted to see if I could do it. I think the result is decent, definitely not perfect tho.

Tried out shading on paper like they do (did?) for anime productions. Then I took that sketch, digitally cleaned up the line art, and fully colored the image. Last two images were what I used as reference.

Still frame of Future Gohan, which was used as reference. Still frame of teen Gohan, which was used as reference.

His ascension is complete

And he is *pissed*

Absolutely adore how this turned out. Also, this is the first time I've drawn an aura :3

I was messing around in paintDOTnet and came away with something amazing imo.

Gives off incredible aura.

Another piece of fanart for Roxashadow's fic "Talking with a Monster." She makes a headband to staunch one of her wounds and all I could think was "I want to draw her like that scene from the Bardock special." So I did :3

Decided to post the actual line art for this cuz I realized quite a bit of detail gets lost when I try to digitally clean it up to start coloring/filling. Also went and gave Left-Eighteen her eyelashes back since I forgot them when going over my pencil work :3

Drew some art of a fanfic I've been reading called "Talking with a Monster" by Roxashadow on Ao3. Both are #18, the one on the left is just a disguise. I've been enjoying it so far :3

Spur of the moment thing, got stuff to do today so I decided to procrastinate and color this piece from a few days ago lol.

This could've been done yesterday, but those damn spots were sooooo tedious to draw so I put it off 'til today. Was also gonna ink it, but I'm just not up for that right now lmao

Sneak preview of my next piece. I wanted to try my hand at drawing Goku and Bulma on a bike. As you can see, Neither Goku nor Bulma have been drawn yet...

(I greatly underestimated how difficult drawing a bike would be.)

Woke up at the ass crack of dawn and couldn't go back to sleep, so I finished this page of random sketches :3

Page filled with various sketches. From left to right, top to bottom: Goku standing looking confused, Sonic's head, Krillin staring smugly flashing a peace sign, Rock/Mega Man X's head looking determined, Bulma in her bunny outfit looking at the viewer, Mario jumping.

No shading, wasn't feeling it with this one.

Started with me trying to copy the ref pose to my best ability, then turned into drawing trunks closer to 23rd tournament style. Tried giving him rounder eyes, didn't work. Something still feels off honestly.

Trunks looking off into the distance. Drawn by The Cybernetic S1ipstream. Goku still frame used as reference.

Taken from another page of sketches I did. Idk what's up but I've been very motivated to just draw a bunch lately. I loved how this guy turned out so much, I made him my pfp :P

I've been working on coloring another piece that I haven't shown off yet, but took a break because I had the urge to draw this little gremlin right here :3

Btw I fucking love Rockman/Megaman as a series, I just kinda forget about it sometimes lol

I drew another goku :3

btw, 23rd tournament Goku is my favorite version of him in terms of art style. He still has the round eyes :D

I also drew him with his tail just cuz I like him having it.

New sketch :D

I realized that out of all the drawings I've done in my sketchbook, I've barely ever drawn Son Goku. I feel it's about time to rectify that :3

Idk if this'll turn into anything but I needed to get this idea out of my head. Basically I want to do a total conversion of Sonic Unleashed and turn it into a Dragon Ball game. Don't know if it would work or be good, but I want it to *exist*. I'm gonna try to at least put Goku in the game :3

Level • Level Type • Boss (optional) First Dragon Ball Hunt 1. Mt. Paozu Intro • Combat 2. Leaving Mt. Paozu • Speed • Pterodactyl 3. Wolves • Combat 4.
