Anime-Beta TNG

This character model of Scarab always makes me laugh:

He just looks so uncomfortable.

Show me something explosive!

I collect color concepts from various series' and films. 99% of the time, the concept art comes with a piece of plastic (likely a blank cel) that has been cut to the size of the art and then 'hinge' taped so that it covers the painting. The artists did this to protect the art. However, I worry about...

Ah, yeah. Completely forgot to include a "show me"... so... Show me someone driving a vehicle.

They don't hate each other at this exact moment, but I feel like they spend enough time hating each other during the series that it should count:

Love this cel: http://dwd.rubberslug.com/gallery/inv_i ... mID=304931

I'm a huge fan of Gargoyles in general and I haven't often seen cels of Bronx. Getting a scene where Goliath is carrying Bronx is pretty cool.

My gallery: http://www.cartoonedin.com/gallery/

I have two items that are pretty much tied for largest. I have a pan background from "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" (the 1979 BBC two parter) that is 32 inches long: http://www.cartoonedin.com/s/cc_images/teaserbox_12030218.jpg and a cel setup from Cadillacs and Dinosaurs (a book c...

So, I recently acquired several over-sized cels from Cadillacs and Dinosaurs. They are beautiful and I love them (but I digress). One of the cels is the longest I've ever seen (~32"). Taped to the bottom of one side of it is part of a cel (unpainted) from a completely different series/film. The...

Just added a bunch more to Cadillacs and Dinosaurs. Also added a 'Don Bluth' section, A Batman TAS section, and a 'For Sale' page.

I don't have many cels and don't intend on buying too many more in the future. My animation art collection is mostly comprised of concept art, sketches, etc. I'm also not a big fan of binders. Sketches (and similar), when placed in mylar sleeves with backing boards and micro chamber paper, can be sa...

The set-up of the gallery is very attractive and easy to navigate. That's a big plus right from the start, and will serve you well as your collection grows. The Gargoyles cel is a very strong start to this gallery, and although I don't remember Cadillacs and Dinosaurs (my daughter and I were watchi...

Let me first say that I do not frame my art and have no intention of starting in the future. However, some art that I purchase comes already framed. Now, there are certain cases where I immediately unframe the art (when it was framed by Hobby Lobby or something similar). However, I have acquired two...

I've been working on my own site over the last day or two. Other than a few things on RS, I've never really uploaded scans of my collection until now. I still have quite a few things to put on the site, but I thought I'd go ahead and share it: http://www.cartoonedin.com/gallery/ The "Mummies Al...

I am incredibly jealous. I love Mary Blair concept art. I've watched some of it go by and it's always way, way out of my price range. This is one of my favorites (large image):

I love her style. Congrats on the acquisition!

Hello AB! I wanted to update this post because the Animation Art Slack Chat is Celebrating it's first birthday! 1 year ago (on December 10th, 2015) I had only been collecting for around a year and was searching for other people to chat about animation art with. At the time, I wasn't aware of AB. I p...

Hello all. I'm fairly new to collecting and I have a quick question about cels and mylar. I've read a number of different statements that say cels will (or at least can) stick to mylar sleeves and that they are not recommended for cel storage because of this. However, I haven't found any first-hand ...
