Excellent work overall! I see you have great potential - kudos to you for producing a very complex work!
I like your cel-shading and the application of the concept of shadows - very simple, uncluttered and quite pronounced. I think this is the main attraction of your work here. This is recurring quality I see in the other works in your gallery - so keep it up! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/t/t…" width="15" height="15" alt="

The only thing I'd like to point out in this piece is that you keep improving your anatomy - though you did get the basics right, the anatomy still seems a little bit odd to me. The shoulders here is a little off - it's a little too broad. Since Gohan here is, technically, 11 during his battle in the Cell Saga, figuratively his shoulders shouldn't be that broad - you can try to make it a little smaller, as you can see in these examples:
*Take note of how the shoulders look like on Gohan and how his physique looks quite slender and less muscular despite his ascending to Super Saiyan/Super Saiyan 2.
Overall, a very excellent work. Keep on creating, give more practice and emphasis on anatomy, and you'll be well on your way in growing to be a great artist!
