Re: Backer Boards for Sketches
I store my non-cel art in boxes. I use 11x14in backing boards from bagsunlimited.com (these, if I remember right: http://bagsunlimited.com/product/3563/backings-for-lobby-cards-11-x-14 ). I put each piece (or set) in an 11x14 mylar bag (also from bagsunlimited) with a backing board and a sheet of Mi...

Re: Stuff you haven't seen for sale
I've never seen any art from "David the Gnome". There have been some pieces advertised as being from the series, but they're always from "Gnomes" (a TV movie based on the same book that came out a year or two earlier). There are also a couple of more recent anime series' that I'd...

Gargoyles Cel Setup (Goliath and Xanatos) Up on eBay
I've listed one of my Gargoyles cels on ebay with a starting bid of $0.01, no reserve, and free shipping: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Production-Gargoyles-Cel-Matching-Sketch-Background-Goliath-Xanatos-COA/273017138706 I'm getting out of cels (but still collecting non-cel animation art). If there are a...

Re: Show me. . .
In an episode of one of the more recent Spider-Man cartoons, someone makes a joke about their lives being like a soap opera. Smash cut to a soap opera mock intro. Near the end of it, Dr. Doom appears in a white lab coat, in a hospital, at someone's bedside and the narrator says "And Dr. Doom......

Re: My First Acquisition
Hello Pixel! Congrats on your first piece of animation art! I can tell you from experience that it will not be your last. :) It looks legitimate to me. This looks like a "layout" sketch. Layout sketches are done to show how characters should fit into a frame and may not (usually won't) per...

Re: Cel Storage Questions
Interesting. I once put a bit of the oil in a plastic cup and it melted the bottom right off of it. (That's what I was basing my statement on.) The composition of the cels must not be reactive with it. That said, I still wouldn't trust it after seeing what it did to that cup!

Re: Cel Storage Questions
Sensei is the preservation authority around here. :) A couple notes to add to his excellent advice: - If it wasn't completely clear from Sensei's description, NEVER use eucalyptus oil on cels. It literally melts plastic and will destroy cels. - I use poly bags for cels, mylar for sketches. Poly bags...

Re: Current State of the Market
I've asked them if they know that they can buy artwork from Naruto, etc. and they all shake their heads. It's not well known that cels and sketches can be bought. I've talked to a lot of younger fans, and none of them seem very interested in the artwork end of the anime production process. Many of ...

Re: Earl's New Site
I was recently able to acquire quite a few (15) Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM) model cels! This is the largest single addition to my site in a while. Sonic SatAM art can be difficult to find and this is the first time I've seen model cels from the series. I've cropped all of them to make them more diffi...
