Akira Toriyama - Dragon Ball Complete Illustrations
$40.00
All-excellent collection by sorely late master. Bonus drawings from the Dragon Ball and Z years.
I read an interview where Toriyama said he learned to draw by obsessively sketching toys and scale-models he wanted but didn't own as a youngster. (Miyazaki is also a vehicles and models fanatic). You can see it in his art - everything looks holdable, ergonomic. And I see some influence from racing and motorcycle decals and graphics in his coloring and composition.
218 pp.
Condition: Acceptable—bottom of dust jacket is marked from some kind of liquid, but it's faint. Interior is fine.
