After many months I finally found the energy, materials and will to actually say a proper farewell.

This was what I came up with for the first page of my first ever sketchbook. It means a lot, and even with any mistakes that are and will be in the coming pages, nothing will make this sketchbook "bad" now :)

Thank you for everything for all my childhood memories and many many more...

The Universal Joy of Akira Toriyama

@bunnycartoon remembering the late Akira Toriyama, and how his work ties us together all around the world.

I knew the Prince of the Saiyan was cooking something all this time, but I didn't realize it was actual cooking.

J'ai testé la démo de #SandLand (au passage, l'anime est vraiment cool). Ça s'annonce comme un chouette open world avec une touche de RPG pas désagréable. Je n'irai peut-être pas jusqu'à l'acheter day one mais je me laisserai bien tenter en promo à 20€ max ^^

This year i want to learn to draw and design cool vehicle, so what's better than studying the grand master Toriyama

My redraw vs the original

With #toriyama 's passing amongst Dragonball and Dr. Slump, Chrono Trigger was mentioned. I never played it but I've seen it's characters a lot of times. As per usual jRPGs are shipped with an amazing OST. Gave it a listen. For the foreseeable future I will keep it going whenever I grab a brush to ink and a pencil to sketch comic pages. It gives me the necessary serenity and calm to be immersed into what I'm doing. The creative side, not the concentration side... The master will always show the path and guide....

He abierto una encuesta en #patreon dedicado a #Toriyama disponible para todo el mundo. El resultado que tenga que dibujar también estará abierto para todo el mundo. Agradecería si votaseis y lo compartierais.

Aw man I completely missed this news! I never really loved #DBZ (I was always into the fun scenes more than the fights), but the original #DragonBall series with #Goku as a child was immensely significant in my early love for #anime. He did other work too of course, but young Goku and friends will always be my goat. #AkiraToriyama #Toriyama

My quick sketch to jump in to honor Akira #Toriyama, an incredible artist who was a big part of my childhood and was also a big factor in getting me interested in drawing. Period accurate graph-paper school lesson doodle like drawing of Son Goku #art #mastoArt

Dragonball è intriso di ideologia patriarcale: universalizza (in tutti i sensi) la figura del guerriero dal corpo mesomorfo, muscoloso e definito, lo scontro tra potenze, il superamento del limite, l'idea che il conflitto si possa risolvere solo con la violenza... Non è che Toriyama ci abbia poi fatto sto gran regalo.

Tribute to #Akira #Toriyama who literally changed my #life with #Dragon Ball

I drew these two pixelart pieces last year as I've always been a fan of Toriyama designs, which have heavily inspired me since I was a child.

RIP Akira Toriyama.

Toriyama (the creator of Dragon Ball and quite a few other works) has died at 68 years old

seems only right to draw one of my all-time fave Toriyama character designs... RIP, your impact and legendary is unprecedented

I started painting this last night for fun. Didn’t think I’d be posting it today in memoriam.
RIP Akira Toriyama

I am out of words really with Toriyama's passing. Basically most of my childhood, the things I decided to sketch first out of my mind, were basically based on characters from DB... He was there every weekend at 11.30 me rushing about to watch every DBZ and DB episode for many many years!

Thank you for the inspiration, the company, the amazing moments, the memories, for shaping up a whole generation of people!!

I linked a sketch I did of my best super sayajin "level", and a cyberpunk figurehead I did that I was told (and correctly) that it looked like Freeza way too much :P Might eventually at some point finish it....
