Most expensive cel to date

Post by Baylor »

Well, I always say "never say never," and that has recently come true with a price tag on a new cel. I always said that I'd never spend that much, and silly me, how could I swear such a thing.

You can find him in the Inuyasha-himself section. Oh yeah, I updated with Bleach too, for those who aren't into the dog-eared demon. :P

I really think that with this addition, I'm done with Inuyasha collecting. But there's that implied "never" word again.

Thanks for looking!

Great cel, but it needs a better scan. Scan it in pieces and send or bring them over or bring the cel and I will put them together. Don't even need beer. :wink:

Great new cel of Inu Yasha Baylor. Congrats! Also Nice Toushiro update in your Bleach section.

Hope you can get a better scan up of your Inu Yasha cel.

(Don'tcha just hate it when the word "never" tumbles out of your mouth?? Cuz then you KNOW you are doomed to do whatever that "never" was! ;))

That is indeed the quintessential Inuyasha shot... I've only seen a few complete IY episodes, but when I think "Inuyasha", it's that kind of look that comes immediately to my mind. :) What a gorgeous cel!! Congrats, Baylor!

i always said "maybe someday i'll be able to afford that chibi saturn cel; but, right now i need to stick to my budget".

what a load of croc! :D lol

every now and then i'll spoil myself with something super expensive. but, those cels tend to be the ones dear to me most and i wouldnt consider parting with them right now^^.

i am glad to hear you found a cel that "spoke" to you on an aesthetic level. congrats! :)

Hey shellster, do you think that he's suitable for the Queen of Cel Weaponry? :P

Dave, I'll bring him over tonight. Thanks for offering to help me with this. I think I'm decent at photoshop; I can collage and splice cels with backgrounds but I can't splice pieces of a cel together. The colors never match up and I don't have the skills/knowledge to get the colors to blend.

ginga- This cel throws the whole term "budget" right out the window. X| But you're right... he's going nowhere. :D

Roboflonne, Kata, Sparta, JWR, monkeyboy - Thanks so much for the kind words and looking! Hopefully Superdave can help me give him the gorgeous scan he deserves.

With that big honkin' sword slung over his shoulder?? Are you kidding?? :D If you start buying all cels with little big-eyed girls picking daisies in the fields, I'll have to strip you of your title... but you're definitely still safe. ;)
