The studio which did Akira has sold cels with backgrounds
together. They're sorta hard to find nowaday, but you can
still find it from certain dealers, like Anime Link.
Ghost in the Shell and Ninja Scroll are different stories,
Production IG and Madhouse have contracts with the
distributors/sponsors that they cannot let go of the
production backgrounds. Don't know why they set up
such a contract.
Usagi's House has some backgrounds from some unknown anime
series for sale.
Personally, I don't like the dealers selling backgrounds
separately because they're supposed to sell the cels
together as a whole scene setup. However, I am seeing some
people starting to sell the pencil sketch, cel and
background as an individual item, that's not good... |
