The only place I've ever heard of a test cel is at Mandarake,
where they had several of them from Laputa for $60. I thought
long and hard about that, but quite honestly even if it
/does/ come from the studio, in my opinion I'd rather save
up and buy a sketch at the very least.
Even though it is xeroxed by the studio on acetate, I can't
get past thinking of it as just a xerox. I mean, the only
thing I would do with such a thing is paint in the colors
myself because a cel without colors is pretty dull, IMHO.
That would, of course, ruin any potential value it might have
for having been from the studio originally.
So, if I'm going to just make a fan cel anyway, I might as
well start from scratch, have a scene of my own choosing and
save the $60. Or is it $100 on eBay? *sigh*
Just my humble opinion.
