Redraw of Dr. Slump manga volume 5

After Goku flew off with Chichi after the big tournament, the TV show began reruns starting from episode 1.
That’s how Dragon Ball became the first manga I ever bought.
Back then manga were only available at book stores in busy train stations. I remember the paper smell in these stores and the Dragon Ball manga, always on a spinning type of shelf. Every time I had the chance to get a new volume I longingly looked at all the cover art of the manga I couldn’t afford to get just yet. Beautifully colored pictures, promising great adventures and protagonists I never saw before. Who was the purple haired guy, who was the girl on cover 36 and why was there a small Goku? Between reading I spent my early teens trying to draw the characters just like Toriyama.
10 years later I started to draw again after using a pen only ever for taking notes for way too long. I began with a cover art redraw of volume 38 because I wanted to have something nice to frame for my living room.
I stumbled into the Vegeta and Bulma fandom on accident after trying to find a better resolution of the manga cover for volume 32 online.
When I posted my first vegebul Toriyama redraw, I got compliments from fan artists that I admired immensely, wich led me to pursue my art hobby more seriously and made me so much better.
Whenever I start a new redraw I feel like I’m still having so much to learn from his work. Every line I have ever drawn was influenced by Toriyama.
I’m 34 years old and I have drawn Dragon Ball for more than 20 years at this point.
While I don’t know if I will still draw Dragon Ball when I’m 68, it will have a special place in my heart as long as I live.

I love drawing in the Toriyama style and Dragon Ball will always have a very special place in my heart, but I hope you all won't mind too much if I post some different things from time to time.
I especially like drawing *real* humans and frankly I do need to practice more to do them well, also working digitally does not really come easy to me, which annoys me to no end.
I also really enjoy using Copics for photorealistic work from time to time and plan on making a Pokemon first Gen series in the future.
I feel very privileged to have so many people follow me for showing the results of my hobby, thank you all so much 💜
