I know this has been hashed out before to
differing degrees, but I just noticed some
Sailormoon fancels put up on eBay. Now, normally
I am not against the principle of fancels. I do
tend to like original artwork better, but we all
know that commisions can be made for specific
scenes, and I admit to toying with the idea of
commissioning certain artworks myself.
But there are several cels on eBay being sold
that are mimics (albeit not very accurate ones)
of several Sailormoon cels that I have seen in
other galleries, including one that's in mine.
>_< I didn't realize how completely annoyed I
would be by this. Granted, I have seen at least
one other cel from the sequence in another
gallery, but this one is a little too close for
my liking.
I don't want to be a grinch about it, but jeez!
Shouldn't these people ask permission first?
What do you think?
