DRAG-onball, Day 5: Lil Devil Janemba

This is DRAG-onball Week, a week of Dragonball characters drawn in drag, or otherwise looking ✨fierce✨.

It’s Day 5, the final day – and who shows up but none other than Janemba.

Don’t know who he is? Take thee to watch Dragonball Z: Fusion Reborn. It’s 45 minutes of sheer wacky hijinks.

Now, the thing to know about the Dragonball Z movies (before Battle of Gods) is – with only one or two exceptions, they are not canon to the TV series. These older movies were made as promotions to show off the anime to people who had never watched it. So you can watch Fusion Reborn and not worry about spoilers.

Janemba is the main antagonist of this movie. Now, he has two forms, but we don’t talk about the first one. This here is an iteration on his second form.

In the original movie, he looks more like this.

But let’s face it, that armor is way too busy. It would distract from the shirt I wanted him to wear.

Also, I just…love drawing Janemba.

Look, he’s nonverbal in the original movie, so I played with his expressions with the idea of treating him less like Perfect Cell and more like a demonic Crash Bandicoot out for mayhem. That’s a big part of why I love drawing him – he’s fun! At least how I do it.

This sticker is coming with me, along with the other DRAG-onball art I’ve been showing for the past week. Tomorrow, July 27, I’m taking these with me to Art Loop Mini Mart in Toledo, OH! They’ll also be available in my Ko-fi shop TODAY. yo.

(If you’re a member on Ko-fi, you’re getting these stickers as part of your rewards.)

and before I go to the Art Loop Mini-Mart, there’s a bonus art piece I want to show off…

Watch out for this hunk of candy!

That’s all for now. Thanks for dropping by!
