Oozaru and Piccolo Concepts
Alex Tuis, a concept artist for Dragonball: Evolution, recently posted some of his artwork for the film on his official website. With not much else to report, it’s definitely worth a look if you’re interested in what could have been if they had chosen his designs. Click here to see his concept art for Piccolo and Oozaru.
The idea was to make something original and a little bit different from the Manga or the animated tv show. At this stage, I did not know who will play Lord Piccolo.I worked only four days on this movie. I hope to be on the next one, with more time.

[Thanks, Al]
Cool.
bleh >.>
They should have used the last Piccolo design on the second illustration sheet. That one looked original but also had major similarities with the Piccolo in the manga/anime.
Well I hope that the second movie will be more lengthy and more characters. The art looks great though.
reminds me of Bigfoot LOL
while neat, I still like how they did the two characters in the movie. At least the design for the Oozaru. Piccolo could’ve been a bit different but I still liked his look.
This oozaru and piccolo looks much better than the ones in the movie
Kinda funny looking…..
I do like the piccolo designs though. Better than the movie one. The movie oozaru was fine i think though.
Meh, I dont like it xD
well they were the first drawings, plus they didn’t know who the cast would be anyway
oh that’s pretty cool
THE PICCOLO ONES A EPIC!!!! WHY COULDN’T THEY CHOOSE THE PICCOLO HE HAD!!! (The Ones of Piccolos heads look more suitable for KAMI)
@ Jesse J
Piccolo and Kami looked the same so it would make sense
@ t-moore
@ HeavyCrosses
It was a great run, great series, and great season. Next year guys. Looks like we’ll have to watch baseball til DA BEARS
…..then BULLS again
thats cool!!
@Stevie B:
its been a hell of a ride im proud of my bulls they showed heart and class and boston did not at all, but yeah we have to wait for DA BEARS and next season for DA BULLS
ps. at least we knocked rondo on his ass
ps2 those pics look really weird
The middle Oozaru was perfect! Much better than what we got for the film. Some of the Piccolos were weird-looking, but they were all old-looking. Piccolo was young throughout the old film, a terrible mistake. And a lot of his Piccolos were just plain awesome looking.
The MIddle Oozaru looks just Awesome!
@ t-moore
Yea rondo went down and stay down like a wussy
I know BG takes dumb shots but I hope we sign him cuz nobody seems to me like they want to shot down the stretch but him and no one can get hot like him
i think it makes sence to me now i think the reason why they made piccolo without the antantas of the fact that he is old 2,000 years old wich im thinking his antanas were good b4 but he got so old that that the antantas got stock on him so wen he wishes for unlimited youth his antanas will go back to normal…
as for goku he mite grow a till sence now he knows about a little abuot his past so knowing that he knows he will began to grow his tail and become a half ozaru wich is good kind of like the anime but not complete its wut i think idk
Whoah, they look scary. ” I hope to be on the next one.” Cool. I wanna see Vegeta Oozaru in Saiyan armor then. Thanks Adam!
Fox shouldve just gone with the show’s version of oozaru. A giant, 7 story ape with a wolfs head. I think the piccolo make up and costume in the movie were perfect though. But for piccolo Jr., Id love to see him in his white cape, turbin, and blue gee. But, I guees there’s little hope of that so long as Fox is in control. To bad, I would’ve loved to see an authentic, live action DBZ movie before I died. But again, I doubt that Fox is going to sell their rights to Dragonball Z to someone that would do the TRUE fans some justice now. (HEY FOX!!!!! PROVE ME WRONG OR DONT MAKE ANYMORE DRAGONBALL/Z MOVIES!!!!!!!) And dont change Vegeta, the prince of all saiyins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hes a proud and violent warrior whom cant turn down a challenge. Dont fuck him up!!!!!!!
@Burter: i agree with u on the vegeta one dude seriouslly i would b soooo fucking mad if they mess him up i would go to fox studios and kick their asses
why could’nt they hav used his designs!! WHAAAAIII FOX WHAAIIII!!! ohh wait. its dragonball EVOLUTION. not dragonball. ADAPTED into REAL-LIFE AMERICANISED HIGH SCHOOL CULTURE. its targeted at kids (who aspires to be a cool adult in highschool with a secret hidden fighting power) and people with low expectations. ohh. thats why. kthanx bai. ohh n to make money with a little budget. we make it like power rangers k? K. what about the second movie? power rangers 2? and then we follow closely to the story but we use the same low budget and same actors. ohhh k k. then we spam the critics and brand them as haters. then we get retarded fanbois to help defend this movie. its a win-win-loose situation. 2 wins is > than 1 loose. right? RIGHT???? RIIIGGGHT!!!??. k bye.
that art BLOWSSSSsssssssss i mean.. .compared to mine.. i gotta admit it’s wayy better. but for a professional working on a film that’s HORRIBLE
some of my friends draw better than that!
they shld have employed you or your friends
They were only able to hire an intern. That thing looks like the Chupacabras.
now that’s some cool shit…why didn’t he get the job to create Piccolo and Ozaaru?
WHOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I am totally BLOWN AWAY!!
These concept Drawings look Freakin’ AWSOME!
That Piccolo Jr. Concept is breath Taking…. I almost had a Orgasm looking at it.
If I had of saw something like that on the big screen, I would have probably pissed in my pants. This concept is more PG-13/R
I knew it…..
I knew IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I bloody knew it….
I been saying it for 2 years
PG-13
and 2 hour runtime…..
This concept looks DARK and very Haunting and looks more true to the anime. I like how he gave Oozaru a tail and I am freakin’ blown away with the Piccolo Jr. Concept. It look VERY EPIC!!
Hopefully they will use that Piccolo Jr. concept in the SEQUEL
This would have made the film a Masterpiece…..
Now this would have been EPIC to see at the end of the movie!!

If King Piccolo (James Marsters) Transformed into this Piccolo Jr. concept, this movie would have been better then Sex with Pamela Anderson.
ye piccolo original should hav been in movie, the oozaru looks way too much like a werewolve which a oozaru isnt cause its a flipping monkey.lol thou the design should hav been used for the demon king with maybe a sword
@7BaLlZz: Yes, YES, YESSSSS 7BalLZ!!
The middle Oozaru is THunderouS!
The person who drew it gave him a tail and took his clothes off.
How exciting
I’m not to fond with the one with the horns, but the one in the middle is defiantly true to the anime, but with a realistic height.
My mouth was drooling when I saw that concept of Piccolo Jr.
I like how they showed his skin and all…. But what got me excited was his Turban and white Cape. Totally HOT!
I really, Really, REALLLLY hope they use that concept in the SEQUAL
“The idea was to make something original and a little bit different from the Manga or the animated tv show”
……..why?
@Frankie_from_LAA:
If you don’t know the awnser to that by now, then I suggest you read the early post.
“Adaptation”
are they still gonna make a sequel to this movie?
anyone can answer
@http://www.myspace.com/coreywilson10:
i think this for all for evolution not the second movie
Have anyone looked at his other concepts? Fking Fraky shit he has :S
i like one of the piccolos art, the one with his cloths, and the second oozaru
they are pretty cool. even the real life version of them in the movie looked awesome!! i’m happy that they made more money than their budget, cuz there would’ve been a huge problem.
These piccolo pics look like they belong in a resident evil movie.
Nice work. Well obviously u can see the one picture of the monkey they used in the movie. Though, the giant ape in the middle shouldve been the one they used. thats the one who looks more like in the show.
the oozaru in the movie was the best movie version ever! cant imagine a gigantic one in the movie and will look cool, with picollo, needs more work.
After looking at the concept designs for Lord Piccolo I can tell this man had very vague knowledge of DB. He seems to have gotten him confused with Jr.
Also, I bet the reason they went with the Ivan Ooze in armor Piccolo had something to do with not wanting to put body makeup on Marsters’ arms and chest area. Low budget maybe.
Yeah this movie was low budgeted, but James Marsters had said that there was another costume, but he wasn’t able to move at all with it, so they had to put makeup on him.
i dont really like it.
I like some stuff.
I do think that Oozuaru should have been bigger and more like ape then werewolf.
And tail should have been included. (and bunch of there stuff should have been different). Like keep dragonball how dragonball is and make dragonball Z the way it is, because thats how we like it.
Some of them looked very cool and loyal to the anime/manga, other were just plain evil and scary lol like from the Resident Evil Games, still, nice drawings!
Why they didn’t use this guys work will baffle me till the day I die…some people have no artistic vision…omg i’m starting to sound like my idiot teacher!!!!
*shutting up* lol
@Stevie B:
they should get him back but BG should be a 6th man
