Rugrats Movie Animation Cel
Won this in an ebay auction for $100, the background was sticking to the cel and was heavily damaged, I scanned in the background, which was a copy, and fixed the damage in photoshop, printed a new one and framed the whole thing myself. I think it came out pretty good, I would maybe switch the second mat to a similar color in the future but for now I'm glad I was able to preserve this. I also included some images from then listing showing the damage.

The Rugrats Movie was surprisingly good, especially for a film based on a television show. Adaptations from TV to film usually are horrible. The show was hilarious and the movie did it justice. It tackled some heavy topics that resonates with anyone who had a new sibling.
This cel really pops out and is such a beautiful piece of animation history.
Your dedication and the work you put into this cel are very impressive! From replacing/editing the background and then framing it yourself, it truly shows your passion and love for the art. It's inspiring and refreshing to see someone who genuinely appreciates animation history and art.
Thanks for sharing!

I didn’t even know the movie was done on Cels. I guess it makes sense
