To conclude the Year of the Dragon, I decided to draw one of the most iconic dragons in anime- Shenron from the Dragon Ball franchise. While I was always planning on drawing Shenron for Year of the Dragon, I will admit that Toriyama's passing this year made me more determined to make sure I followed through with that detail. Though back to Shenron, I always liked him since he seemed so powerful and central to the plot, even if we got to see him so rarely due to the whole once a year part of the dragon ball's function, though that being said Shenron was surprisingly funny too, I remember in one of the movies he was like "are you guys going to make a wish or what?, and how terrified he is of Beerus goes without saying. Though to conclude I really like this dragon and his mystical orbs whom the series gets its name from, and if he could grant me one wish, I'd wish that 2025 was a lot more pleasant for people.
