IGNO: Goten Back Cover

Full-sized version of the Goten image used in the IGNO Vol. 1 cover's backside: suupaagohan2.deviantart.com/ar…

I always liked Toriyama's old tendency to draw the characters in casual clothes just randomly riding in cars and whatnot for title pages and cover art, so this is sort of intended to have the same feel. It's not a 'main' outfit that I plan to draw Goten in regularly, but more of a just-for-fun alternative done specifically for the cover.

I figure I'll make a theme out of using the Dragonballs in the back cover images to number the volumes, as well, just like the old DB volume covers. So here, Goten's got the 1-star ball (I gave him a 4-star ball necklace just for design). In the other hand, somewhat awkwardly held, is the Dragon Radar.

By the way, his cap is meant to say 510 on it - the Japanese shorthand for 'Goten' (5 = go and 10 = ...well, ten).

The jacket looks puffy to me for some reason. I think it's because I gave the sleeves a more 'bunched' look than I usually do. And the shading on the pants leaves a lot to be desired, too. Bleh.
