I was checking out some of the 'my favorite cel'
posts and I was really amazed by the diversity.
I started to wonder what makes a cel really good,
or at least 'worth it' to everyone else.
I like cels with lots of details (like three
color level cels: shadow, highlight, base color)
vibrant tones, and pretty lines. I don't always
like cels from anime I love, I'm usually drawn to
cels from 'pretty' series like Utena, Shamanic
Princess, Violinist of Hameln, etc. I know
there are a lot of dragon ball fans, but
personally I can't stand the choppy line style on
anime like that.
So what does everyone else look for in a cel? |
