I love me some Obata Takeshi sensei

I don't normally draw after existing images (except photo references or a few times I tried other style of art), but in one episode of Bakuman, Saiko practiced by copying Dragon Ball (altho I don't know what you can get from copying outdated style, wouldn't it be better practice to copy more recent works of Toriyama? but who am I to say? haha) and I thought, hey, why don't I do that too?

so yeah! copy ahoy!



I serisouly love this brush and ink, and Saiko's hair, hahaha.

I also understand why I didn't do it. Copying other existing works is too restrictive for my liking.
