I made this artwork in 2022 for Toontober, but ended up using his blue uniform for Kid Goku. I figured I'd share it here since this version hasn't been used.

I also wanted to post this in honor of Akira Toriyama who passed away recently.


R.I.P. Akira Toriyama (1955-2024)
I recently found out about it this morning. One of the GJ users posted about it. It's very sad and unfortunate. It was found out that he died on March 1st, 2024. His family did a private funeral. That's why no one knew about it until they made announcement about it. His works were very creative. He was 68 years old. He has certainly left a legacy and inspired a lot of artists and anime.

I started watching the Dragon Ball series back in 2022. I had a friend back in high school who was a big fan of DBZ. He would talk about it all the time. I wasn't interested in it back then, but I would still listen to him talk about it. I did know a few things from the show. It wasn't until recent years that I decided to watch the show. I watched Dragon Ball and then DBZ. I need to go back and finish DBZ.

Watching Dragon Ball had a "sense of adventure" when Goku was just a kid. Trying to collect all the dragon balls. Toriyama had a lot of creative ideas and awesome worldbuilding in the world of Dragon Ball.

Then I started watching DBZ. It just got better and better. Fun fighting scenes. Interesting character arcs, etc. I ended where Gohan is now a teen and has his alter ego, the Great Saiyaman, and then I took a break watching the show. Now I just need to go back and finish it.

I'm curious how the Dragon Ball will continue on. I heard that supposedly Toriyama has already found someone to continue the series before he passed away. I guess we'll see how things will go for the future of Dragon Ball.

May Akira Toriyama rest in peace and my condolences go towards his family. Thank you for creating such a unique series and inspiring others to create their own stories.

Star Wars Tie Fighter!

Since the X-Fighter became one of my very popular YouTube shorts, I figured I'd make the Tie Fighter as a follow-up and share it here on GameJolt. :) #StarWars #TieFighter #thedarkside

What Cancelled Sequel Do You Wish Had Been Released? #GJAsks

Twilight Princess 2 (or whatever it was gonna be called).

Originally, there was gonna be sequel to Twilight Princess, but we ended up getting Link's Crossbow Training instead.

Here's my Zelda art for #FanArtFriday.

I know it's late, but I don't care. I also decided to draw Tatl and Tael for Art Weeklies #TattleTail #ArtWeeklies I know I'm technically cheating with this, but I thought it would be funny.

Here’s a silly doodle of oku inspired off of the gift that @/heroinmilk drew for my birthday (which is fucking awesome btw what the flip Andre you tease) reference is the second image

I wanted to share some photos of some homemade Poptarts that I made.

The first picture is Strawberry & Blueberry poptarts, the other flavors were Mulberry & chocolate poptarts. I used Mulberries that were growing in a Mulberry tree I have in the yard.

May the Force be with you!!

I made an X-Wing in TOTK. Happy belated May the 4th and May the 5th! I know it's late, but better late than never!!

What's The Strangest Game You've Ever Played? #GJAsks

Katamari Damacy!!

It's a very strange puzzle-action game, but there's something very appealing about it. I played the HD remastered version of the game called Katamari Damacy Reroll.
