1)  What country do you live in? 
--> Belgium, country of the french fries! ^_^ 

2)  What do you predominantly collect, Western ( 
Disney, WB, Bluth, Film Roman, etc. ) or Eastern 
( Anime ) animation art?
--> Definitively and only Japanese animation.

3)  What makes up the majority of your 
collection?  Production Cels, Sketches, Gengas, 
Storyboards, etc?
--> I love gengas/dougas, but I'm more into the 
cel itself

4)  What shows/movies/characters do you 
predominantly collect?
--> Hmmm... Some may say it is all yaoi! lol 
Let's say my favourite shows are Zetsuai 
(Kouji), Ai no Kusabi (Iason), all the animes 
coming from Kouga Yun (Kagetsuya from Earhian, 
all from Genji) and all from Takemiya Keiko 
(Natsu e no Tobira, Kaze to ki no uta,etc.). And 
many other shows of course, as long as there are 
some bishounens!!! ^_^

5)  When selecting your pieces, what do you 
generally look for?  ( close-ups, action poses, 
character interactions, etc. )
--> On hte shows I love the most there is only 
one rule: to be seduced by the cel, no matter 
the type of pose. But I noticed a tendance to 
buy some profile cels and close-ups...

6)  Where do you get the majority of your 
animation art?  ( Online Anime shops, Online 
Anime dealers, local comic stores, local anime 
shops, local animation art galleries ).
--> Most of my cels come from internet (Online 
shops and auctions) but some of my best shots 
come from a French animation shop. No logic! lol

7)  On the average, about how much do you spend 
on animation art a month?
--> TOO MUCH!!! ^_^ Let's say 400$ is the 
average but it can vary a lot from one month to 
the other...

8)  How long have you been collecting?
--> It's already 2 or 3 years now.

9)  What is the most you have ever paid for one 
piece?  What show/character was it?
--> We are not rich in Belgium, so I consider 
that spending $300 on a Kouji cel (Zetsuai) and 
$350 on an Ai no Kusabi cel was really madness. 
Unfortunately for my finances I just couldn't 
resist! ^_~

9)  Why do you collect animation art?  What 
draws you to it?
--> It gives me the impression to own a piece of 
the anime and gets it more real for me. But 
that's a bit philosophy! lol I remember I bought 
my first cel just because it was cheap and I 
liked the pic...! No logic at all!!!
