Title: Land before time orginal production cel's and drawing
Post by: Flathead on November 01, 2009, 09:12:10 PM: I managed to win these original production cels and drawing from Ebay (well I hope their original, they certainly look it, and my hats off to anyone who's managed fake these cells if they are indeed fake), so I've scanned them in for you all to have a look at, for size issues i've only done them in jpeg format for the moment. I'm also wondering how many members have managed to aquire production cels from the original movie over the years?

Post by: Pangaea on November 01, 2009, 10:54:53 PM: Hey, I think I tried bidding on some of these. :blink: Sorry for the competition I gave ya. :oops

I myself have spent entirely too much money purchasing LBT cels and production drawings over eBay. :p Maybe I’ll share some of them here (if I can find a way to upload decent pictures of them).

Post by: Almaron on November 01, 2009, 11:59:14 PM: Is it just me, or is the one with Ducky and Petrie climbing up Littlefoot from the original ending? (Same as in movie, except Littlefoot adds, "Now we'll always be friends forever" or something like that after they all huddle on the hill)

Post by: Pangaea on November 02, 2009, 01:15:40 AM: No, they're in the process of stacking on top of one another to reach the leaves on the tree. :p

Post by: pokeplayer984 on November 02, 2009, 02:04:38 AM: Usually, when I come across a cel of LBT on eBay, they are always fakes and are actually of Dink, the Little Dinosaur. How you came across the real deal, I'll never know.

Great find, bub! Great find. :)

Post by: DarkWolf91 on November 17, 2009, 11:18:56 PM: I've seen quite a few authentic Bluth film cells/production drawings in my day, and I have to tell you I'm kinda on the fence about whether or not these are authentic. Ah, don't pay me any mind, though. I'm naturally suspicious :p
If they are authentic, then wow! Congrats on the fantastic buy!

Post by: DarkHououmon on November 21, 2009, 10:16:41 PM: I believe that one is when hey are climbing up that rock wall, where Littlefoot keeps ushering them even though they are all tired.

Post by: Petrie. on January 09, 2010, 10:30:55 PM: Most unusual poses for some cells, but they had to be there for fluid animation! :) Thanks for sharing your finds with us. These are indeed rare.

Title: Land before time orginal production cel's and drawing
Post by: Killua on July 13, 2010, 05:48:12 PM: Wow, great collection! I'm fairly confident that none of these cels are sketches are fake. I've seen and bought a ton in my day and these all look genuine. It looks like you bought several of them from icollect-online who I know purchased multitudes of boxes directly from the studio, so there's no doubt about their authenticity.

Generally artists won't fake cels unless there's a good profit margin to be made. Faking cels takes a lot of time, research, and effort. They're only going to be faking cels worth several hundred dollars. Additionally, they tend to target more popular series, like Evangelion, Dragon Ball, Sailor Moon, etc.

Post by: LBTLover1 on December 12, 2011, 09:37:20 PM: They look legit...but who really knows.

Just think on how someone could get ORIGNAL cels. Is it possible.
