Cellu Club
Cellu Club is a series of reproduction cels that were released by Gainax. There are 12 machine reproductions and 6 hand painted ones. I have a complete set of the former, still sealed in their envelopes, and three duplicates which have been opened, marked with an *. This was because I got these 3 first before landing a complete set. The envelope that the machine reproductions comes in is last. The hand painted cels are sequentially numbered to follow the machine reproductions and all of the cels are presented in numerical order. E12

fan cels
The 2 fan cels below were commissioned by Hyperenity Visual Arts. The first is based on a sticker that came with Hakone Road cake, and the second is based on a promo illustration for K-Swiss.
These 2 cels were purchased from Yahoo Japan Auctions. I'm not sure if the artist is the same person as the seller. The detail and quality on both is amazing. The backgrounds are colored paper.
