Description Another Daizenshu's artwork restoration.

I took extreme care about this one.

Hope you like it ! ^_^

UPDATE 15 08 08: I added almost a third width.
I use photographies of the artbooks to work, and this time I cut the left original part accidentally!
But as I was correcting this detail, I realized that the background seemed to me too empty.
I decided to add 2 details: the spike forest (where Vegeta almost got impaled on, and one of the cubes of the Hell's sky, where Son Goku and Vegeta trained (and missed!) fusion.

Title comes from Hirunobu Kageyama's song, "saikyou no fusion" (the mightiest fusion). I've always loved it, especialy this part :
Ore wa taiyou (I'm the sun),
Omae wa tsuki (you are the moon).
I think that's a perfect image for Goku and Vegeta's relationship. Furthermore, you can make a link with japanese original beliefs, especialy Amateratsu's legend.

08 04 10: New update, I changed some colours and corrected some details!

Hehe, thanks a lot, but you should have read at least one of my comments. These are just RESTORATIONS of existing artworks. I copy those.

You see, I take bad quality photography of the japanese artbooks. Those artworks are on two pages each time, and I have to re-invent all the center part.

But really, that's no big deal. It's just copy and coloring. You see, I spent 4 years in artschools, but I was never able to go to the diplom. Too difficult in France. So I decided to continue using this knowledge to do what I love!

Anyway thanks for you comments, and just know that I'm working on a difficult one, with the Z-team fighting Broly.

See ya !
