Hey Janet, nice to see you here!
Maybe I can help a bit with this. I am/was also
pretty adicted to my cels last year. I had
gotten into some really bad debt and had to part
with a good many of my best cels. It was a
little hard because I had the cels for awhile,
but they were also of characters that I had no
real feelings for. I like how Lady Brick put it.
Pull out the cel and find what you dont like
about it, and also think about how happy the cel
might make someone else. I collect Nuriko cels
(as you know now, hahah!) and I have a terrible
time parting with any of them. I have sold a
couple in the past, and it was always hard
because Im -very- attatched to them. But, they
were shots that werent quite what I like. Im a
snob, I like primo A shots, shoulders up and face
visible. I mainly collect cels because Im a big
fan of anime art/faces/eyes, so the cel has to be
visually appealing for me. The only exceptions
are of course Nuriko cels...I can have a cel of
his back and be happy ^_^. Other characters I
only like the best shots I can find, and matching
bg is always a plus. This is not to say other
cels arent great too, but this is my preference.
It also saves me a lot of money because A shot
cels from the series I like are hard to find.
When I do find them, it's worth it ^_~ |
