Shenlong (Shenron), the Eternal Dragon

This was an attempt to recreate Shenlong as I pictured it on my mind if it had a live action appearance.

I tried to add to it its' most important characteristics, like the absolutely long body, horns, dragon mustache, etc, while giving it a different look.

This is just a sketch and I plan to digitally color it soon.

Enjoy :iconshenronplz:

I'm a huge DBZ fan, and I love how you made him into a more realistic character, but still keeping your surrealistic feel into it.

Though I love how you did hes face there is like some details missing, it just feels like he is made out of sections, and actual wyverns don't work like that, it would make them be less flexible + that is not how Shenlong works, only hes bottom part is divided, the rest of hes back is a slick, one piece looking piece of flesh covered on scales, also you could have added more deph into the actual character by spinning hes body(more through the middle side of hes body) around a little bit.

But this is just an opinion, and :iconjustsaiyanplz:.

This is amazing looking artwork. Liking your style of Shenlong. Your lineart is very neat and clean. The Dragonballs surrounding him is perfectly done as well as the background of the city. The shading/coloring is perfect too. Well done.:star:
