hey guys and gals --

please excuse my ignorance here, but being new to 
the cel scene, i'm not sure what to make of this.

long story short, in my couple of months of 
perusing yahoo japan, i've come across a seller 
by the name of sadsblood who has displayed some 
beautiful cowboy bebop cels.  only thing is they 
seem to be too beautiful ;) .  honestly, it's not 
so much that as it is that all of his cels seem 
to have some sort of strip of tape across them, 
leading me to believe that he himself (or 
herself ;) ), is the artist.

so, if anyone could help clarify this matter, it 
sure would be appreciated.  on a side note, i've 
tried altavista's babel fish translator, but 
that's not helping any ;) .

p.s. i'll go ahead and attach a couple of 
sadsblood's past and present images so you know 
what i'm talking about here.
