Early Concept Art
Plansiete.com has a video interview with Jonay Bacallado, a concept artist for Dragonball. You can watch the interview (in Spanish) here, or read a translation (thanks to Jonathan Martinez) below.
Narrator: His latest project has entered a whole new realm of difficult creativity, It involves the diversion of the reality of the dragonball series. His ambition was to give the characters a “new look” than in the manga, while still keeping the spirit of it in tact.
Jonay: This is one of those projects where the artist already has a reference to look off of; my job was not as big as that of say, the producer, because I already had a reference to expand from. To tell you the truth, It was really complicated, we had so much work to do to redesign every character to get them to where they’re at now.

I have to ask you to please remove this information, because the images shown are mine, no one has asked for authorization, and most importantly, because it may lead people and Dragon Ball fans to think this is actual concept art, but it’s not. They are part of my personal artwork.

None of this is news. They’re fakes from 2 months ago.
lol seriously, i love that piccolo pic he has purple pants like in the anime!
fake?! are you delerious, how can all those be fake?!
@Adam:
I don’t trust Adam, those look too well done to be fake.
if its fake he means they most of pro changed the pants or sumthin or they remade the clothing and stuff so idk
Oh, i think the Piccolo image is fake, but those Posters are 100% real.
@Miguel: dam well i was excited
http://img81.imageshack.us/img81/775/cabezahuevo2tb4.jpg <- Photoshop colored.. it’s fake, both images were shown on the forums and other news coments
the purple pants image is the black&white image ed french showed with photoshop coloring
and the other one is piccolo vs goku, also with photoshop coloring
the comparison was made bcuz Piccolo’s head is oval on left pic but not on the right one
The posters are real! lol Cant you guys see the Bulma poster I leaked on there?

Damn those posters look incredible even though theyn bad quality.See Fox has something wpic.I swear everytime they reveal something it’s like they’re bringing out they’re favourite fighter Ala Troy and Achilles.That’s why they take their time with it.It’s called save the Best til last.They’ve got something good on their hands and they know it.James Wong knows ’s winning an oscar for best picture And possibly Best upcoming new actor Justin Chatwin.Nobody can tell for sure but i stake my claims to say that we’re in for one hell of a Dragonball movie.
@K-Mart: Wait a freakin’ minute!!!! K-Mart is the one that found that first picture of Bulma. So you know what that means?? That means K-Mart has to have another one of those posters.
K-MART PLEASE SHOW US A POSTER!!!!
omg you guys, adam meant the photos with that green piccolo were fake, that’s why you should check the forum once in a while, those were posted while ago, its photoshopped, the poster ones i’m 90% sure they are real, but we can’t see too much to be sure…
don’t believe everything you see on internet…
@http://www.myspace.com/coreywilson10: gahh and masenko-huh said he has access to some posters too!! gahhhhh why wont promotion start yet????

@REPAIR MAN MAN: K-Mart does have access!! COME ON K-Mart just show us one pic? I promise I won’t tell FOX
Darn it! This wait is making me go CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But I can do it, all I have to do is wait 12 more days for the trailer….
12 Long dayssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
holy snap its december! this year is dying.
its almost 2009!! i once imagined myself jumping off a bridge and landing on my head. then i woke up in the hospital and they yold me i was out for 5 months. and the first thing i would say is “OMG IS THE DRAGONBALL MOVIE OUT???????”
then id go watch it.
.
OOPS sorry im off topic.
oh no the art is gone. where could it be.
ok thats on topic
i hope dragonballmovieblog posts those posters and note pads as news
@fhernandezy8: Hey where did you get them?They Looks Cool
those posters of goku look real nice, maybe coreys right and hes really doing the kamehameha on one of those posters. that would be nice!
i hope someone can find them in higher quality.
damn please fox promote this MOOOVIEEE!!!!
we want the DAMN trailer!!!!
Hey guys, doesn’t it look like the Dragons head on the picture on the far left down on the third row??
Like someone is standing there (piccolo maybe) and the dragons head is coming down around?
These pictures look fuckin’ sweet though.
Yeah I agree with corey, it does look like Goku is doing the famous kamehameha stance… or he is just holding another fucking dragonball lol.
Either way the pics look badass and can’t wait to see them in HQ.
@DBZM28: Dude!! Maybe that is Shenron
???? I see allot of Green swirly stuff. I hope they show these posters, because I want to but them on my myspace page. Hey K-Mart could you at least tell us if that is Shenron in one of those pictures???? 
Yeah and behind his left shoulder is what appears to be his Jaw, face, eyes. Once you see it you notice it every time you look back at it.
Sorry for their incompetence Adam, They are idiots if they actually thought the gray-photoshopped picture of piccolo was real. Anyway Man, we need new…not saying its your fault adam…just merely wanting some, but not complaining so yah.
