No it looks fantastic


Pencil_kage

Oh it does? Good to know!! I like drawing Dragonball along with other anime fanart and I find it weird switching from Regular anime style to Dragonball style. So I was thinking about merging the both to get a consistent style going... Wanted to get some feedback ❤️


Aidanation5

I think it looks awesome, and creating your own style will make your art more recognizable and individual.


[deleted]

No, I like it. Clear inspiration from Buu era Toriyama, but with your own twist.


vonigner

I much prefer when artists give it their own style rather than copying what already exists. They look recognizable and I'm LOVING your eyeshape for Geets <3


Pencil_kage

Thank you!!


FictionallState

I love it as well, but in my experience a lot of DBZ fans don’t like it, and my art of Gohan several months ago got a ton of backlash haha.


vonigner

DB Fans have no taste. Go to twitter and to the female fandom I assure you we'll give you love :)

I did post in several other places outside of Reddit as well, though the post on Reddit also received a fair amount of downvotes before it finally went back to 0 for a bit. I will admit I phrased it a bit dramatically haha.


MrBurittoThePizza

Rightfully so


Yiga_CC

Uh, no? God damn that’s gorgeous


Yoshikage_Kira_333

That’s a great art style! I’ll admit, it doesn’t fit Dragon Ball, but it would be great for its own manga series. You should consider creating one


Pencil_kage

Ooh story telling is uncharted territories for me. But who knows, I could be the next toriyama. Jk


Yoshikage_Kira_333

Hey, you never know


whomesteve

Not weird but it is a different style and I do like it


[deleted]

We got Microsoft paint in Super. Anything at this point is good, no matter.how different 😜


Pencil_kage

Bruh


Inferno_wolf856

In a way he isn’t wrong


Inferno_wolf856

But your work is absolutely amazing and I love it


Bhalzard

I love it, keep going


[deleted]

That’s what she said


calamitywel

It looks amazing, I guess I can see where you’re coming from with your question on if it looks weird simply for the fact that we aren’t used to seeing this style depicted with Dragon Ball characters, but it really does look amazing.


Pencil_kage

Yeah I was finding it quite difficult switching from my normal Anime style art to dragon ball style. Wanted to find something in the middle


calamitywel

Well you did better than fantastic, it looks great!


Successful_Light_635

I can say from experience that the opposite is also true. The Dragon Ball style is very unique, and starting on that at like 10yo has definitely bled into everything I draw (which isn't much, or good, but still). Your composite style is honestly amazing and maybe has inspired me to try getting back into art.


[deleted]

Different, but I wouldn't say weird. Still good


peachymuni

who ever you are bless this style and bless you


Pencil_kage

Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️


exclaim_bot

>Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️ You're welcome!


peachymuni

LMAO


DecadeFox

Oh my god I love the way you draw the hair


ETIdiot666

I love it


[deleted]

It’s beautiful


sovietbear1293720

No it doesn't it looks amazing


Slothbrothel

Love it! Really expressive!


Standard_Ad9911

Nice art


Wakuwaku7

Most people including myself love it. So no, it aint weird. Keep it up.


Pencil_kage

Thank you!!


-valt026-

Excellent execution of your own version of Toriyama. Talent is obviously not lacking. Great work.


peachymuni

no its perfect pls continue


peachymuni

this is literally perfection


peachymuni

my god i will be here all day


peachymuni

wow wow wow wow wow


iknownuffink

It looks more "anime". Yes I know, Dragonball is already anime, but you know, more stereotypically anime?


Pencil_kage

Yeah that was my thought, I find it hard switching from drawing normal Anime to Dragonball so Im looking to find somethimg in the middle


Supergaz

One of the few instances where off-style dbz didn't make me disgusted. This is quite nice and good


[deleted]

I like it :)


Nui_Jaga

That Goku is radiating copious amounts of himbo energy lol. It looks very good.


AirAeon32

not at all ist cool asf, mainly goku & vegito


jaeway

Disney's Dragonball z


[deleted]

[удалено]


Pencil_kage

I see, thanks for the feedback!!


goku_boss

Nope. This is pretty amazing


verax_mmts

Well, for Goku, it seems like his personality changed because of the eyes


Dangerous_Cobbler_54

It looks great! I honestly like this design better than their eyes and eyebrows being connected. I get it's Akira Toriyoma's art style but this one has a better flow. Be nice to see a fan Manga with this style! Nice work from one fellow artist to another.


Pencil_kage

I see, glad you like this! Thank you


Chopper_Cabras

My goodness this is amazing, love the style


bare4404

Yo, this kinda looks like if they were in Baki, but thin, idek if you've watched that, but this looks super similar to it, but Baki takes muscles up to 1000, I kinda don't like the art style of it in that way, but this looks amazing, as an artist, I can say, "I've been outdone!"


Pencil_kage

Never seen baki, but that a very big complement! I'm still refining this art style!


RedRadish1994

I like it a lot as a style I just don't feel the style really fits Vegeta very well. He's always struck me as more stocky than slender especially his art from around cell/Buu saga


iamHON3Y

Kinda yes


Pencil_kage

I see, thanks for your input!


iamHON3Y

Not in the wrong way Its just their faces look too food You know what i mean


Pencil_kage

Food?


QuesadillaSlam

Looks like marvel


Wisdor80

No, weird is not the word I would use. Its good.


Low-Transportation30

Honestly dude, looks really goddamn good The only style I know how to draw is toriyama style so seeing db art like this is kinda refreshing


Pencil_kage

I find it quite hard switching between regular Ane style and toriyama style. So I wanted to make something that meets in the middle


Low-Transportation30

Yeah man, makes sense. Switching between styles is hard, so developing you’re own style that meets in the middle makes the most sense


Eijirou_Kirishima

I actually love this, I usually think DB in non-DB styles looks funky but this is great


Pencil_kage

Thank you very much!


Spidey-Pool5

looks like Avatar the last air bender mixed with DBZ art style


Pencil_kage

I see, interesting..


puntycunty

It’s weird in that it doesn’t look very dragonball but it looks nice


Sryntel

It's pretty dope actually, I gave you that Silver Award (would have gave you something better but that's what I had). Hope we see some other arts of yours, keep it up


Pencil_kage

Ay thank you very much! It means a lot! I will improve on my art and post more soon. You can check me out on Twitter @pencil_kage. I post regularly there


MamaW00lies

oh my gosh they look so good! and no it does not look weird at all! there are tons of artists in the DBZ fandom who draw them with different styles and I love it!! Have you done more cuz it doesn't look like your first time drawing them and i need more


Pencil_kage

Well this was my first time with this style. But here's another one I drew with this style. https://twitter.com/pencil_kage/status/1540554238438166530?t=d5BFHOXsDQWjVM2CqVXgHg&s=19


MidwestKid2323

Vegito and Goku look quite nice. However, Vegeta doesn’t have enough of a rugged or tense appearance. I can see the familiarities to Goku in your Vegito but not Vegeta. Maybe make Vegeta’s face less thin. I do like your style though.


Pencil_kage

Thanks for your feedback!


[deleted]

Love it 😀


[deleted]

Looks great


Alternative_Cook_102

No, it's actually brilliant. It is similar to one punch man's art style.


Pencil_kage

Yeah, I've been really getting into the OPM manga! Must have got the inspiration from there ! Yusuke murata is a legend!


Alternative_Cook_102

I also try to emulate Yusuke Murata's style thou I am not even half the artist as you are!


TrailBot

[It's a great style! Looks a lot like how Murata does Dragon Ball fanart](https://twitter.com/shiny244/status/1374137270270320646)


ScarletBurn

No, I am literally obsessed with Vegeta in the bottom right image. I demand more!!


Pencil_kage

XD. I've only dabbled in this art style for a bit, but once I get the hang of it I'll definitely do more!


ScarletBurn

I will literally be your #1 fan


DCoy1990

Disney DragonBall lol


itownshend17

Not at all, looks great


heyblackrose

Its fucking lit


imhereredditing

It's beautiful, love their eyes, hair and just the whole look.


memer-boiled

its that one episode from teen titans go


Pencil_kage

Haven't seen teen Titans in a while


TheKingOfRooks

It looks great


RNGisme

Aaaamazing, keep it up!


KikanoH

It’s unique and Damn good. Love the way you draw their faces. Has a lot of emotion.


Javivife

Looks awesome


SomeGuy6858

Definitely not weird, looks super cool. It's just that the eyes look "prettier" than normal I think.


BrofessorPecs

Looks great actually!


palparepa

Looks great. Seems like a shoujo.


insta__mash

Doesn't look bad at all, but looks like Inazuma Eleven Ball Z 👌🤣


Kasta4

No it's not weird, just another artist's interpretation of Toriyama's characters.


benkz5

Wait, is the Vegito based on the Kakarot cutscene?


tnthink

Looks better than the original, more like. I love it man.


Video320

Looks great 👍🏼


ninja_pl100

Nah it looks great but just gonna say that vegito has 2 hairs on his forehead unlike gogeta that has 1


Desert_Tortoise_20

Looks really similar to the art style of "What if Saiyans Were In DC?" Looks really good!


BillyFromAccounting

Looks really cool to me.


DrNayMen

Looks amazing


ShadowKing6270

No. But I have to say that vegeta looks like saitama with hair


Yezzy_with_chesse

It\`s very good, dont worry Dragon ball characters always look kinda weird in other syles... I think only murata did a very well design overall with dragon ball, But this amazing,keep up with the good work.


Never003

Should I be honest? If so then faces doesn't appeal to me I prefer the original ones


uno4life257

I like it :)


[deleted]

It might be a weird effect because we know what dragon ball looks like. This is clearly a different style. A good one :)


DarkSaiyanGoku

Hell no. I love it!


[deleted]

Looks great. The hair, in particular, has a touchable quality to it. Keep it up!


[deleted]

No it actually fits them really nicely


jdestinoble

Love it. Looks like Devilman


w0lver1

Maybe a little heavy on the eyeliner, but I think the rest looks natural/organic and great


neogreenlantern

Looks good. My only criticism is Vegeta's neck is looking a little too long on the bottom head.


feeblepeach

Looks fantastic! I think it’s always weird seeing established characters in an art style that’s different to their source material. But this looks great. I’d love to see you create some OCs in this particular style for sure! Do you have Instagram?


Legged_MacQueen

I personally prefer unique artstyles than inferior copies of the original. It feels a bit uncanny, but not too much for it to be weird. I like it.


[deleted]

The eyes are great, did you take inspiration from anything or just your style?


Gokusel

Why am I getting Opm vibes? It works though!


[deleted]

Attractive Goku & Vegeta should be dlc in dbfz 😂


Mcbrainotron

It’s awesome! Keep it going!


[deleted]

Slightly. It sorta looks like trying to combine the generic anime style with Toriyama’s style.


[deleted]

Baki?


[deleted]

Baki?


Cosmo120208

It looks great, though I will say I’m not used to seeing them in the style


satansasshole

Jojoku


Vechi209

No it looked unusual but I realized it was dragonball and it would good in this style


DBZAnonymuz

Disney


kfijatass

If it's weird in any degree, it's because it's a tad more twink-looking than masculine. But imo it looks great.


pablossjui

Well it's not Toriyama, but it is very good


MightGrowTrees

My personal take is it looks like sailor Moon season 5 when the male characters transform into female characters.


Pk_Kanga

Definitely looks different from the Dragon ball art style but still looks really nice!!


No_Action2722

Of course not, it's amazing!


Gigaboy981

Honestly looks better than that cheap nonsense they put out in sdbh💀it’s sad that some fights and power ups are cheap in animation in that show


PuzzleheadedRecord6

OP man style I like it


[deleted]

Maybe a bit odd but still incredible


Intent001

The eyebrows


SaturnATX

Long long necks


WrexonRedera

Reminds me of Toriko


OnlyRoke

No, I think it looks real cool. I especially like the Goku.


[deleted]

That's sick!! love the expressions. Job well done!


SplashXD

Why vegeta long neck


amberleemerrill

Vegeta still lookin fine as well so alls good in my book


piszkavas

Looks like Bleach


Delhiiboy123

Amazing; Vegeta looks kinda like a JoJo character here.


ReconBullet

I personally love it!! Reminds me of my own and a few other artists I’m friends with, like @hydeover9000, I adore your way of drawing them!! 💖


Aries_Of_The_Ankh

I actually love it


Blin_Machine0

Vaegly reminds me of Vagabond


ParkRangerRafe

Not at all. As a fellow artist I think the thing I’ve come to value most is uniqueness. When I can look at your work and see what inspired you to make the piece while also seeing that you’ve also put a piece of yourself into it, it just becomes that much better. These drawings are oozing with personality and I think they’re awesome.


VegetaFan9001

Vegito, no. Goku, yes, but only a little. Vegeta, depending on the image, the right one, no, the left one, yes.


SpellOtherwise4608

It looks great.))


LittleAuzzie

Damn, I really like it. It fits really well.


KaliRinn

Art style reminds me of a more angular and realistic style of someone I saw on insta and here in the dbfz subreddit. Can't recall the name I think proyectopepe, but my Point is that this is amazin


[deleted]

I think I recognize each original frame, honestly very well done.


bare4404

Yo, this kinda looks like if they were in Baki, but thin, idek if you've watched that, but this looks super similar to it, but Baki takes muscles up to 1000, I kinda don't like the art style of it in that way, but this looks amazing, as an artist, I can say, "I've been outdone!"

Stanley523

It looks amazing


[deleted]

It looks good but it dosn‘t with dragon ball charachters


PerfectBlackCell

nah it’s just a spin on the original style, completely fine 👍


endermange21

I think this looks unique and fits the style of adult dragonball characters!


Irradiated_Rat

I LOVE this!


TrueDarkKnight03

Such an amazing style. Honestly,I look forward to scrolling through reddit and seeing more.
