Traditional Japanese prints often depict legends from Japan's ancient past - images of gods, monsters and demons. It's an art style that lends itself well to showing the supernatural. Following that vein, it was a lot of fun adapting these superhuman characters into the Ukiyo-e style. 

I created this bold, colorful design to look like one of Yoshitoshi's many warrior prints. The bright hues reflect the color palette of the original TV show. 

The top caption translates to 'Dragon Ball'. The bottom caption translates to say 'Never resting, striving higher'.
