Description
Alright, this time, it's a real creation !The story within this work :
There are 10 daizenshuus:
Illustrations, Story Guide, TV animation part 1,2 & 3, World guide, movies & tv specials, Cardass complete files 1 & 2 and Encyclopedia.
[link]
Then, were released 2 "perfect files" for the GT period, in a VERY smaller size, edited by Jump Comics.
Finally, we never had a real "GT period" Daizenshuu.
Some people would say "yeah right, but GT is crap, it doesn't deserve a Daizenshu release, it's no "Toriyama"!".
I won't say I love everything about GT. But when I ear somebody saying he doesn't love Vegeta's moustache or Gokû becoming young again "because these ideas are not Toriyama's"... in fact, these ARE Toriyama's creations! And you get the proof from the "GT perfect files', with the original artworks.
Let's get back to the subject. I'm not a fan of GT as an entire thing. But I think some ideas deserve to survive, like the main heels (Baby, Super 17 and Li Shenron), or the quests around the universe.
That's why I decided to work on this "fake" cover art. After all, I think GT would have deserved a Daizenshuu.
I designed the structure, then made the draws of Goku and Supa 17.
In the final cut, you have a character I did (Goku), and a color work on an existing lineart from Toei (Supa 17).
I forgot the 17 I designed, he was not worth this one ^_^
It has been hard to find a good way to put them in the cover. I had an original design for this, but I had to change it due to some changes on Goku's posture. He first had his left arm completely bloody damaged, and an eye half-closed.
I have to thank from the bottom of my heart. She made me realize some MAJOR problems with my first lineart for Goku. I won't show you the original one, it was a shame ! lol! But she helped me and it has been really stimulating!
01/04/11: I added the rest of the cover, to have something someone could use ^^ And I uploaded a .PNG file. I will improve the drawing as soon as I can.

Exact, j'ai fait les dessins indépendamment avant de créer la composition. C'était pas la meilleure idée ^^
Je ferai une version3

C'est le seul que j'ai "copié" d'une image existante. Le reste, je l'ai inventé (et dessiné à l'origine sur une feuille à carreau, au boulot! ^^)

You earned that compliment. And you would earn my money if you made your own version of that book, has to be hardcover though like the other daizenshuu.

Well, TV Animation part 3 and Carddass Perfect files 1&2 were not hard cover... But I think it should be hard cover too ^^

Awesome work just a quick correction though, Akira Toriyama didn't design Super Saiya-Jin 4. It was designed by Katsuyoshi Nakatsuru at Toei.
Toryiyama did however sketch it for the Dragonbox GT release a couple of years ago.
From what I can gather from my Perfect Files Toriyama did the sketches for Goku, Pan and Trunks and some mechanical designed including Giru and the spaceship they travel into space on at the begining.
Anyway not trying to be an ass or anything. I just think everyone should share information.
Great work again!

Thanks a lot !
Actually, I can't read japanese... I know it's a shame lol!
But when I saw the ssj4 Son Gokû drawn by Toriyama, I was so impressed I couldn't believe what I saw. And I was convinced he was the one that designed this transformation.
Thank you very much for these informations ! I'm glad you decided to share it!

My pleasure. It's easy to be fooled I was convinced he designed it for years too.
Toriyama himself commented that he was very impressed at Nakatsuru san's artwork for resembling his own so greatly.

This is terrific stuff, good sir! While I'm not a supporter of GT, this is an amazing piece. Even if it is the "red-headed step-child" of the DB universe, it still deserves a Daizenshuu. At least, now, we can pretend it had one.
