Genetically created with the DNA of the Z-Warriors Cell, with numerous genetic traits and special abilities, and ruthless and ultra-powerful tyrant Frieza are among the main antagonists in the Dragon Ball Z series. The fight between Goku and Frieza, and Gohan, the first son of Goku and Cell is a fight of eternal rivals, daring and ready to fight to the last.

The diorama Like Father, Like Son of our contributing 3D artist is a result of their big passion for the iconic series and huge dedication to their work.

Top-attacking Cell and Frieza are as much involved in the fight as possible, their appearance is vicious and terrifying.
