The Old School Otaku Lounge

I just stumbled onto a couple of Dragonball images that I liked. Thought I'd make a thread where we can show off all our favorite images. I probably have too many to count, but here are the two I stumbled onto:

Oh wow, those look like shitajiki! I would love some DBZ shitajiki!

This is one of my favorites, drawn by Hideaki Fujimoto. One of the first artists I discovered on the internet through an old Japanese artists search engine website called "Surfers Paradise". While the artist tends to draw alot of yaoi doujinshi, they became a lead character designer for Wild Arms 5 and I'm still a big fan of how he draws his character designs. LOVE this picture, two of my favorite childhood anime in one.

Oh wow, Ryoran, I love that fanart! Super cute!

I always loved this image of Lum, even though it basically has nothing to do with the series. XD It's just pretty!

Today for some reason I'm really digging this Zillion picture. Its from the back cover of some kind of "Animate Collection".

Oh wow, my friend had that Lum poster! He was a big fantasy nut, and he loved how she resembled some fantasy character in that picture.

This is a great idea for a thread.

I really like Sachiko Kamimura's Arslan artwork:




And here's her work for a SNES game called Brain Lord:



EDIT: I can't get phpbb to lt me resize these.

Greg - AH! I always wanted that poster! I saw that one and this one at anime cons for a while, but then they disappeared before I could ever get one: Again, not a THING to do with Lum or Urusei Yatsura, but they were so pretty! XD

Danth - I love Sachiko Kamimura's work! It always reminded me of a less sketchy/more defined version of Yoshitaka Amano's character designs.

Yes, and I think he had that sword image as his Windows 3.1.1 for Workgroups computer's desktop!

Cool! You just introduced me to a new SNES/SFC game! As always, the Japanese cover looks better than the North American version. Here's a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMW-F9ENbBs It looks like a fun action RPG in the style of Ys, Zelda, or Neutopia.

If you can find it, check out the new Zelda Encyclopedia book available at retailers in North America. Some great images in there. But I was more into Final Fantasy back in the day...
