repainted to sdcc colors. what do you think? This is beautiful. I'm doing something similar with a manga Gohan converting it to the darker tones seen in some eps... I really like what you did here!

Looks good but the blue on the shirt and wrist bands are a little too dark I think.

It is a little on the dark side, but it still looks fantastic that way.

The second pic was when goku and gohan made their super saiyan their "base form" (I don't remember the exact phrase) before the cell games so it would reduce the strain and they could stay in tht form longer. Personally when I think of super saiyan I think of the big transformation with the roaring aura and the change of color in his clothes

So, what explains those reference pics then? This is all a bit confusing since there are 50 shades to him from googling! it's really tricky to name one definitive palette for any form. The anime was handled by multiple studios and unfortunately this resulted in numerous palettes being used. www.kanzenshuu.com/animation-styles/I tend to stick with promotional material or stills from anything made past Battle of Gods as it seems the colors are more consistent these days. I know some people don't like the blue/purple combo but I don't mind viewing this as Goku's default palette. ...but it's hard to say what palette must be used for the SS form. A lot of material features the SS form giving so much light output that it makes the gi appear yellow...and then in BoG the lighting only makes a subtle difference (this was not used in the film but it's the best look at the SS palette used).

If you are going with the darker colours, then you need the pale almost white hair to go with it. The brighter yellow hair with shades is a result of the SS aura and the aura also makes his clothing brighter. But, it looks good, anyway.

Thank you guys. It all actually makes a lot more sense, now. Even though it's not "appropriate" I think I'm going to leave the shaded hair on him but I've got another manga goku coming this week so I may just switch the heads to have them both alright. More progress on this guy.

I like your work on the hair better than any of the official figures, anyway. So, I would say keep it. Like others said, the actual details change so much depending on if it's anime/manga/older movies/newer movies/etc. if you like it, that's what matters.

More progress on this guy. Looks good man, are you airbrushing some orange very lightly on the yellow hair? I have been meaning to try this out on one of my goku heads next time i pick up my compressor. Def looks subtle and good man, I think its almost there. Coot

Here's a closer up, and thank you brother: The Goku is very good, but the face annoys me a little, it looks a little wierd. you should try to match it to the body's skin color, and make the pupils a little bigger.
