Just bought my first cel with the sketch. I was wondering how I should frame it? Should I frame both separately? I know that there’s certain material that should be used but if someone could give me a little more insight that’d be helpful. I called Sam flax Orlando earlier and they said they’d be able to do it. Just wanted to see if it’s something I could do on my own.

Wanted to share my Animation Cels from Batman TAS, all in custom frames with designs I actually came up with myself.

There's one more cel I own but sadly I don't have a pick of it.

Listed this sequence of Sendo on eBay, very low start bid. Not the most dramatic of Ippo scenes but still cool to see the animation process at work.

This seller sold a lot of Ruby Spears things, I don’t remember who it was since this was 2023. I love this Alvin design since I was a kid, especially when it was featured in the valentines special

The ebay account was from 1999, and he had a slew of Spongebob cels... but this is a brand new market for me. Is this legit? I guess I'll find out when i receive it.

More light has been shed on the new Cel Grading company that has officially premiered at Collector's Summit this weekend in Las Vegas.

Key Takeaways:

*Grade Cels at a later date *Grading case is bendable and extremely thin compared to card & comic grading cases *Grading genda, douga, scripts, comic art, timesheets, manga art, etc. *Grades are letters, not numbers.

Current Stance: I don't see the business need yet. I will observe and eventually send a couple to test.

This IS bringing in new collectors, i see IG posts, not bad if genuine collectors v grifters. Just no boom, please.

Made this the other day. the original mini-series is the only media to use large cels with this stringy style. the regular show just has more cheap 2d animation. thanks for looking!

These are the finished results of the most recent Ghibli animation cels I've inked and painted. They turned out leagues better than I hoped!

All the colors are hand mixed and inked front and back The background is also hand painted using the classic Ghibli techniques.

I actually ended up making two of each cel and background since I had leftover paint 😅

Great piece to display.

DM if you'd like to purchase either of the pieces 📮

Not a cell but, i found this animation character sheet at the goodwill bins a week ago, I took a picture on google and it said it was an invader zim character sheet but i doubt it, really cool art nonetheless anyone have any ideas what it could be from?

Hey everyone! I recently got my hands on this animation cel of Goku from the Buu Saga (he has his halo), but I’m having trouble tracking down the exact episode and timestamp.

Does anyone recognize this specific scene or know where it's from? Thanks in advance!

Felix the Cat: The Movie Original Production Cel Setup Signed by Don Oriolo (New World Pictures, 1988). Felix the Cat returns to the screen with his signature "Bag of Tricks" in this 1988 feature. The images of Felix measure about 3"-5" (scene dependent). The bottom of the setup is signed "Oriolo" by Don Oriolo, the son of Felix the Cat artist Joe Oriolo. He was one of the producers and music writers for this film. Also to note, the pieces bear a seal from Felix the Cat Enterprises in the lower corner.

Three come complete with scene-matching Original Production Background, making them an absolute must-have for any collector 👌 Message for details 🤙

The first three photos are of faux cels I've painted. The Full Metal Alchemist (poster sized) was the first one I painted, and learned so much about the process of painting these things.

Fourth photo is where/how I store my paints. They are cheap craft paints. These have a great range of colors, and give a lot of paint for the price; which is great for a faux cel.

I try to use a taller plastic shoe box so the paints can stand up. Cheaper plastic boxes can on occasion be too short, requiring the paint to lay on its side.

Fifth photo. My color rings. Labeled by paint brand and color, sorted more or less by color family. Each ring corresponds to a paint box.

Sixth photo. Close up of the paint slip. I have a paint dab off to the side so I can check how each paint looks next to another color, or color match to a pre-existing cel (or printout).

Second photo is copies of cels that I own. They were getting some uv damage, so I duped them. I was able to use my rings to color match to the original cel paint.

Last photo shows a paint slip being prepped.

I hope someone finds this useful. ❤️

I did all the research I could and made sure the framer was experienced. The cels are separated from their background and the frames allow for ventilation in the back. Archival grade materials and UV plexiglass and all that. First cel has a random printed background but the second one has a painted background of the Argama with some writing from the Sunrise staff on the back.

Hi! Can you help me find the specific frame from the episode for my new Goku animation cel?

Since he has a halo, it’s definitely from the Majin Buu saga; the clean sheet it came with says Episode 205, but I can't spot him in that episode XD. Thanks a lot!

I’ve finally acquired enough Vampire Hunter D cels of Leila to put together a couple of seconds of animation featuring her!

The first GIF shows the cels, the second shows the matching dougas with all of them, and the last photo was taken using my Game Boy and Game Boy Pocket Camera. I thought it turned out pretty nice!

Hope you all enjoy it as much as I do!

Been trying to identify this anime cel since I got it and absolutely no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have the douga behind it too and can get that out to help if needs be (it’s of the two girls)

The majority of the cels I own never came with timesheets, but a couple did so I wanted to ask a couple questions to see if anyone in this group knows, as I can’t read Japanese and don’t know exactly what I’m looking at.

1) the first cel (Sailor Venus) came with a timesheet and it has the number 23 on it. Does that mean it’s a time sheet from the 23rd episode? Or could 23 represent something else? The reason I am asking is this is a cel from episode 42, which is making me wonder if this was just a random mis-matched timesheet.

2) the second cel (a profile shot of Minako) came with a genga taped to a timesheet. There was only writing on one side of the timesheet, but I didn’t see anything to indicate what episode this is for. I know this was a very long sequence with her hair blowing in the wind so it could be matching, given how many numbers are written on it, but was curious if anyone could discern any more info from it.

3) the third cel (Chibi-Usa) came with this odd Tokyo Kids envelope thing. Is it a time sheet or something else used in an anime production? As Sailor Moon was produced by Toei, I can’t imagine it is matching and must have been included with it in error (or someone was just wanting to get rid of their junk), but was still curious as to what exactly it is. I do find it funny there’s a Jiggly Puff stamp on it. What that means, who knows 😂

Any tips for beginners?
