The Evolution of Style in 3D Film

I wanted to show how much theatrical animation has changed in the last few years. Incorporating 2D elements has always been attempted but was rare and went unnoticed. That’s not the case anymore with more adopting it, anime too!

So Shueisha just announced that Toriyama passed away last week on March 1st from a subdural hematoma (head injury)

The site has crashed, but it's from both official DB twitter accounts

This drawing is based on a Game Boy mom meme, but except of a mother beating a Super Mario Land level for her kids, it's a retired, legendary-military-general-turned-a-local-sheriff helping a fiend prince beat a level of a scaveneged, gameboy advance game, the teen struggled with for a while now.

😈 Announcement 😈

Akira Toriyama's original work, the theatrical version of "SAND LAND," has been released in Japan today!

I am responsible for modeling characters such as the protagonist Sheriff Rao and Gejiruu(ゲジ竜)!

It's the epitome of Akira Toriyama, globally renowned for Dragon Ball, with its profound and weighty mecha and unique characters. The deep and intense story will surely ignite your passion. While it has already been extensively announced in the United States, if you're interested, please do check it out!

Am I the only one who thinks Muniel from Sand Land looks, dresses, and acts like 2005 Violet Beauregarde?

Finally feel like I can say something coherent, so here goes... I say this without a shred of exaggeration: Akira Toriyama was legitimately one of the most important creative figures of the last 50 years. His work, especially Dragon Ball, has influenced SO much even outside its own medium. Movies, TV, cartoons, comic books, video games, MUSIC... all of it. You can see his fingerprints in so many other works. Even now, artists and writers, voice actors and animators, musicians and game devs are all mourning him and reflecting on the impact he had on their own work. Titans of anime and manga are sharing in this pain. The craziest thing about this though? The humility he had in spite of it. He was always reluctant to be in the spotlight, preferred to keep his head down and just work, never really worried that much about public perception of himself. Part of what makes him such an icon, man. Losing him is losing a piece of our shared history. It's something that resonates deep in the hearts of everyone his work touched. This is just... such a loss. And I can't even begin to imagine what his family is going through right now. Praying for them all. Rest in Peace to a literal Legend, an absolute Icon, and a personal inspiration in more ways than I could ever express properly.

This took me a while, so it may seem late compared to everyone else's.

'But when the news hit us, and I saw everyone drawing Goku, Arale, Dragon Quest or the occasional Chrono, I thought some others might wanna say their farewells, too.'But when the news hit us, and I saw everyone drawing Goku, Arale, Dragon Quest or the occasional Chrono, I thought some others might wanna say their farewells, too.

For the curious, from left to right: Beelzebub (SandLand) Kajika (Kajika) Jaco (Jaco the Galactic Patrolman / Dragon Ball Super) Shu (Blue Dragon) I know there are more, like Nekomajin, Chowa, Ackman, Cashman and so forth, but I stuck with those i know a little better.

You may be Far away but your memory cant be erased, Rest In Peace and Spread your wings Toriyama.

Drew this in commemoration of Akira Toriyama after learning of his recent passing. A lot of the characters and worlds he helped bring to life. None of that would have been possible without him.

Is anyone gonna ship these 2 or do I gotta do it myself?

Looks like I gotta do it myself!

& this scene too

There's also Rao holding onto Thief off screen at least twice!

They literally held hands too!

Look, even the toys on Amazon have them together, like c'mon now!
