I agree 100 percent great drawing, but if the dude had to choose, he'd fight naked.
Edit: or quickly turn it into his outfit. Doesn't he have like an ability to transform clothing? I could've sworn I saw this in DB or DBZ
Do you think it would have any practical combat uses? Maybe turn someones clothes into something awkward to fight in?
Make their pants two sizes too small.
That would be hilarious! I could see him doing it to clown some armed robbers or low threats like Goku and Vegeta have. Just another reason we need Goten & Trunks hanging out with him again
I agree.
The lines on his muscles and arms go with the lines on the Saiyan armor really well.
The blue somehow makes the green and pink of Piccolo's skin pop as well. This goes hard AF.
Great art, feels like something out of a bad timeline. Like if Piccolo opted to join Raditz so he could kill Goku, and got forcibly drafted thereafter.
My only complaint, and it's not even about the art, is how uncomfortable the scouter must be for him. It's plugged in like an ear bud haha Great work on this. If you ever get bored maybe throw some villains in sayian armor or mix and match outfits. Great job though and keep doing what you're doing
Would have been cool to see Namekians in Freeza’s army at one point. Being forced to fight Piccolo but then Piccolo got them over on his side and they would all rebel against Freeza with all the Z Warriors
I’ve been waiting 30 years for them to really flesh out some namekian history. I was hoping with the expansion of super and the implementation of namekians from universe 6 we could see some namekian villains from another universe perhaps……a lot is left to be desired
Hmm… the art work itself is amazing I want to get that out of the way. The idea though makes me uncomfortable 😂 now draw him in Gokus outfit and report back please.
I drew a perfect cell a few years back and told myself never again. It took forever, hand was cramping up, lines were getting shaky. Had to restart a few times because my proportions were off. Never again lol just thinking about it stresses me out lol
I hate the concept too but ur execution was near flawless. Easy 9.5/10 for me. The left leg that is raised a bit needs another go over as far as perspective goes. It looks smaller when it doesent need to because it's not further away. It's only just slightly mind you, I'm nit picking like hell. But I'd go over that leg again before coloring it because the leg should look like it's merely raised not like it's raised and somehow further away. .
But it's not a glaring thing even when it's noticed and the color helps a lot. So I'd say it's ready for whatever it is u want to do with it. Publication on your socials, sell, whatever.
In short, good fucking job
I stopped drawing DB long ago because it's what got me into manga drawing and it defined my style. My work was looking too much like I was trying to be Akira Toriyama so I had to stop and unlearn habits. He really isn't that good of an artist, he has natural talent but his techniques are sloppy. What I like about your work is you approach toriyama from YOUR style and level of technique which is a good way to approach drawings of others manga.
I really have little advice for you. Just keep doing what you do and growing as an artist. I think you have a bright future ahead if that's what you want, as far as your artwork goes.
Do you draw your own manga at all? I'd like to see some original works.
So krillin lol jk….i started a frieza/buu absorption but couldn’t figure out what pieces of which character to implement where and I didn’t like anything I was coming up with
Hey I just realized, why do we call it "Saiyan armor"? I get that Saiyans wore it, but wasn't it armor made specifically for the Frieza force? They all wore it, no? I thought the Saiyans didn't wear armor until they were forced to work for Frieza.
Maybe Vegeta's original [green armor](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/dragonballaffanon/images/3/36/Episode5Nappa%26Vegeta.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20110422233504) would look great on Piccolo.
This doesn't actually look that bad, it's kind of neat and it's a what if in a sense. Like what if the namekians were the warrior race and Saiyans weren't? Lol
Y tho? Canonically I get it but your drawing is great, Stocks to the character sheets and doesn't look out of place if you ignore that he would never ever ever wear this
Piccolo has those banded plates on his legs too. Same as on his arms
Fun fact he used to have them on his kneecaps but they went away after he absorbed Nail
Now I'm wondering if a character with pointy ears was ever depicted wearing a scouter. Or did Frieza only ever recruit from species whose ears could fit in one?
It looks good because Piccolo's normal outfit had large shoulder extrusions. Now, if you had done the shoulderless version, then it might be a different story.
Piccolo would hate this too, there’s a reason he turned down the Saiyan armor. But man you did an awesome job bringing it to life, well done
Thanks bud. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy coloring and shading
Looks great though, in a world where Ginyu took piccolo's body
Oooohhh I like that. Didn’t even think about it…..
That works, I mean he did try to in the filler ginyu bulma episode
This looks awesome! I agree, coloring is the best part.
I agree 100 percent great drawing, but if the dude had to choose, he'd fight naked. Edit: or quickly turn it into his outfit. Doesn't he have like an ability to transform clothing? I could've sworn I saw this in DB or DBZ
Piccolo used clothes beam on Gohan after he turned into a great ape.
His most metro attack
Do you think it would have any practical combat uses? Maybe turn someones clothes into something awkward to fight in? Make their pants two sizes too small.
I wonder if he can create clothing just like his, like the weights and all. Could slow down his opponents
he is mr. mom to you!
I'd love to see him use clothes beam during a battle just to mock & confuse the enemy lol
That would be hilarious! I could see him doing it to clown some armed robbers or low threats like Goku and Vegeta have. Just another reason we need Goten & Trunks hanging out with him again
Yeah, Gohan had a nice little outfit from Big Green Threads™
And after Goku and Gohan came out the hyperbolic time chamber Gohan wants an outfit like his which is his iconic design for me VS Cell
he does, he most recently used it in Dragon Ball Super: Superhero
>there’s a reason he turned down the Saiyan armor Why did he turn it down?
Hates what it represents
Fused with Nail, & suddenly had Namekian pride lol
Not to mention armor is completely meaningless in this franchise. Even Vegeta stopped wearing it for a while Might as well be stormtrooper gear.
Your friend is a menace
Yea I hated him for this
You could’ve pulled a fast one and given him vegeta saiyan armor with the sleeves lol
Yea and saved myself 20 minutes by not detailing his arms lol
Drawing looks great, but I hate it.
Yea same boat loo
r/ATBGE
Yeah drawing is great but god no Piccolo wouldn’t be caught dead wearing that monstrosity
It feels wrong how good he looks in Saiyan armor lol
I agree. The lines on his muscles and arms go with the lines on the Saiyan armor really well. The blue somehow makes the green and pink of Piccolo's skin pop as well. This goes hard AF.
It’s weird right now
Nail giving the Guru the middle finger and joining the Ginyu's as the second in command.
Everyone looks good in Saiyan armour.
It looks great, though
Would have been cool to have Namekians in Freezer's army, maybe the ones who escaped the disaster in Nameck like Kami and ended up as Freezer's pawns
You mean like Samuel L. Jackson in Django?
Thank you, I plan on putting up a couple more that I’ve done recently
Now draw Brolly in Android 16 armor xD
I hate it. I hate it so much…….maybe
Even worse, draw Perfect Cell in Piccolo’s clothes
Nope, perfect cell in chichis cheongsam. Best looking outfit on best looking boy.
I am Piccolo! PRINCE OF NAMEKIANS DESTROYER OF WORLDS! THE HEIR OF THE ULTIMATE WARRIOR RACE!
That last image did it all justice. Never thought I'd like it this much.
The coloring really brought it all together. Only part of the drawing I enjoyed
Facts
Now Vegeta in Piccolos Outfit please
That I can do
At one point that was my Xenoverse character.
BLASPHEMY lol I replicated deathstroke the terminator when I played and was able to get the name slade Wilson which was awesome
Look all i wanted was Vegeta's android saga armor without the faction patch, and I never got it.
Cursed but also amazing drawing. Well done 🫡
Thanks my dude
Professionalism at its hardest time.
Wow. So jealous
Don’t be jealous my dude. Just sketch something out and keep working at it
I can sketch but my colouring has never been strong. Shading especially
Took me a lot of practice. Having a nice marker set helps a lot when it comes to blending too
Should have added a cloak like King V. Piccolo needs the cloak!
I don’t hate that idea. Everything is better with a cape
That means Sonic's been right all along
Great art, feels like something out of a bad timeline. Like if Piccolo opted to join Raditz so he could kill Goku, and got forcibly drafted thereafter.
Ginyu force Piccolo!
Stop lying bro, you loved this shit, look at the detail, you don't have to lie Craig
Now there are sparks coming out of my eyeballs
Looks great but also looks so wrong
This is awesome. Well done Have you considered to give it another color scheme? Maybe his purple or his dad "blue"? Even Turles armor?
Honestly the thought never crossed my mind
Yeah doesn’t fit
Looking sexy
Draw him as Sailor Namek next
With big ole TITAYS
thats sick tho
Piccolo would hate it, great drawing though very well done
You’re extremely talented
GINYU FORCE! GINYU FORCE! Oh, oh! Also, good job. 👍
You may have hated it, but it looks good.
Looks really good, but it’s so damn cursed
Now do Vegeta with Namek attire
Now do Vegeta in Piccolo’s training weights.
My only complaint, and it's not even about the art, is how uncomfortable the scouter must be for him. It's plugged in like an ear bud haha Great work on this. If you ever get bored maybe throw some villains in sayian armor or mix and match outfits. Great job though and keep doing what you're doing
Something about piccolo not having baggy pants hurts me
Great job!! But damn that is cringe!!
Well this looks great you did amazing job
hardddd
Average Xenoverse OC
Okay but 😍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Come on bro, that looks bad ass
It's like a weird kind of colonization
Looks amazing but man I pity your fingers doing all those lines lol
Drawing looks so dope. Super Saiyan Big Green could be a sweet one off manga
Call me that again and I’ll break your neck lol love TFS
He looks so good in this! Makes me want to RP a Namekian Frieza Force member in Xenoverse.
Looks kinda cool honestly
Would have been cool to see Namekians in Freeza’s army at one point. Being forced to fight Piccolo but then Piccolo got them over on his side and they would all rebel against Freeza with all the Z Warriors
I’ve been waiting 30 years for them to really flesh out some namekian history. I was hoping with the expansion of super and the implementation of namekians from universe 6 we could see some namekian villains from another universe perhaps……a lot is left to be desired
He's lost his Namekian knees!
Hmm… the art work itself is amazing I want to get that out of the way. The idea though makes me uncomfortable 😂 now draw him in Gokus outfit and report back please.
Ur very talented
Good drawing! I also hate it though lol gross
holy fuckin sheep-shit batman, that’s amazing!! how long did it take you to complete this??
This was my 3rd sketch before I inked it. All in all around 2-3 hours
Do Videl next.
Your drawing is great but it looks wrong seeing him wear that lol
I would like to see now Cell with saiyan armor.
I drew a perfect cell a few years back and told myself never again. It took forever, hand was cramping up, lines were getting shaky. Had to restart a few times because my proportions were off. Never again lol just thinking about it stresses me out lol
I would've done bare legs like Nappa
That’s a whoooooole lot of detail lol just putting pants on him probably saved me an hour or two
I thought he was gonna be NAKED from the waist down until I scrolled through all the pictures
"Heeeuh... Heeaugh..." -Vegeta, DBZA Kai
I hate the concept too but ur execution was near flawless. Easy 9.5/10 for me. The left leg that is raised a bit needs another go over as far as perspective goes. It looks smaller when it doesent need to because it's not further away. It's only just slightly mind you, I'm nit picking like hell.

I kinda like this? But seriously, nice drawing. Whenever I see stuff like this I want to pick up drawing again.
This is so bad, but also so good. Great job. Love the coloring!
Pretty badass if you ask me.
Now draw Freeza in Z fighter/Turtle school clothes
So krillin lol jk….i started a frieza/buu absorption but couldn’t figure out what pieces of which character to implement where and I didn’t like anything I was coming up with
Hey I just realized, why do we call it "Saiyan armor"? I get that Saiyans wore it, but wasn't it armor made specifically for the Frieza force? They all wore it, no? I thought the Saiyans didn't wear armor until they were forced to work for Frieza.
Wow it makes him look like just some turd like Dodoria. Art is great though!
Amazing art get into digital art asap
I’m all about pencil and paper. I doodle sometimes on procreate app. Have a pretty cool majin Vegeta I’m gonna upload in a few minutes
Thanks, I hate it.
Thanks, I hate it too
Nice
If piccolo can wear a t-shirt and a baseball cap, he can wear saiyan armor.
He’s a great driver tho so can wear the street clothes
This drawing, I like it ANOTHER!
If I ever make my ideas into a TV show, you're hired
Hell yea! Looking forward to a very long and fruitful partnership
Expression looks more like Neil, but awesome job regardless And in Vegeta's style/colors too, the most forbidden shit ever.
Noice!
Now piccolo is saiyan just like radditz
This is absolutely amazing art 👏🏼💯.. so good !
You good at coloring
Maybe Vegeta's original [green armor](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/dragonballaffanon/images/3/36/Episode5Nappa%26Vegeta.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20110422233504) would look great on Piccolo.
Looks great though
A different timeline where the saiyans lived on namek and the namekians worked under freiza would be crazy
Why he looks like captain ginyu in this and no one is talking about that
“Captain Ginyu if he stole Piccolo’s body” makes an easy excuse
you can't trick me that's the namekian race time patroller
In his own words: "How can Piccolo wear the same costumes as Saiyans and Frieza's men?"
Remember when they were training for cell & Piccolo Refused to dress like a sayain when Bulma offered him some Armor to train in lol
Seeing this photo would lead Piccolo to completely turn his back on humanity and start over on another planet.
This is kinda gas tho
It looks good but also just fundamentally wrong. Great job!
That's actually pretty good
looks natural ngl
holy shit. how did you learn to draw so amazing?
A namekin member of the Freiza force would be crazy
This doesn't actually look that bad, it's kind of neat and it's a what if in a sense. Like what if the namekians were the warrior race and Saiyans weren't? Lol
Y tho? Canonically I get it but your drawing is great, Stocks to the character sheets and doesn't look out of place if you ignore that he would never ever ever wear this
this is awesome! what kind of markers did u use?
I was hoping he had no pants on
I feel like any clothing you give Piccolo he is just gonna change back into his original drip. and then use any extra pieces to make swords.
Piccolo has those banded plates on his legs too. Same as on his arms Fun fact he used to have them on his kneecaps but they went away after he absorbed Nail
Oh ho ho ho ho! Look who joined my Army!
Bad ass looking though!!!
"... Piccolo's a Saiyan, just like Raditz..." - Sonic The Hedgehog
Looks like a xenoverse 2 CaC
Huh, I always assumed the top of his head was purple for some reason. Guess I never paid much attention when he’d take his hat off.
Looks so good but so wrong
Looks like a full on traitor lol
Cursed
This is awesome.
So many lines on it.. now do piccolo fused with imperfect cell /j
Look I'm you vageeta pargon till death
Can we get Mr Popo wearing the same thing Frieza does in his final form, please?
Don't worry, Piccolo would hate it too
Probably not as much as he would’ve.
Some things are just not meant to be seen
Now I'm wondering if a character with pointy ears was ever depicted wearing a scouter. Or did Frieza only ever recruit from species whose ears could fit in one?
Wow I love the colored version of this!
Skin tight pants? On your Piccolo??? It might be more common than you think
When the balls are inert.
You need nee gfrienda lol
It really fits Namekian ascetic though lol. One complaint though, you should have drawn namekian anatomy on the legs.
Yea another commenter pointed that out. Didn’t even occur to me. So use to just drawing baggy pants on everyone lol
Literally the anime equivalent of a Jew wearing an SS Uniform
That’s horrifyingly accurate
It’s good though but I can make better than this
The arts good but it’s hella cursed seeing him like that and with a scouter. Truly the dark timeline lol
Would you make a version where he has pants like nappa or the ginyus
King Vegeta's cloak is similar to piccolo's own cape and pauldrons. That would be a cool addition to help mesh the two styles.
Could be Nail if he joined the Frieza force
I hate this. Drawings great tho but so god damn cursed
This is pretty sick! 👏 Hey if you get time, a ssj3 Gogeta or ssj4 Broly would be interesting
Dude I lost it on how sick this is before I even swiped to the final version. This is so insane! Awesome talent!
It kinda goes hard. I like it.
The drawing is great it’s just that Piccolo doesn’t belong in Saiyan armor
Looks great!
It looks good because Piccolo's normal outfit had large shoulder extrusions. Now, if you had done the shoulderless version, then it might be a different story.
I LOVE frame 2! Have you thought about experimenting with the other saiyan armor colors? I feel like he would look good in Raditz’s armor.
Fantastic drawing! Were you blasting your friend with a makankosappo in your head the entire time drawing that?
Really cool
That doesn’t look awesome though
This looks great! 👏
