Fun Fact
BuzzFeed published a report claiming that Tumblr was utilized as a distribution channel for Russian agents to influence American voting habits during the 2016 presidential election in Feb 2018.
I have been TRYING to find the name of the brands of cel paint(s) used in the 80s and 90s so I can find a color sheet for the ideal limited pallet to draw from for good good fake screenshots. I’ve seen Animex and Toei Animation Paints listed but I can’t trust that these are the accurate or only brands of the era. It’s totally possible that the paints used were from now defunct companies. I see a mention of Nicker paints used on backgrounds of Ghibli movies and other series
ア-トセル or art cel paints seems to be a brand.
Cel Vinyl Paints are listed for Disney in the late 80s with custom paints beforehand
I hope these colors are useful for anyone trying to make fake anime screenshots

For collectors and hobbyists of all types, there are items, objects, or crafts one pursues with an acute, vulgar obsession (i.e., "white whale," "Holy Grail," "glorious purpose," etc.). Sometimes, this is passive; other times, it's dynamic. But as I unbox my latest haul of animation production artwork, I can scarcely believe I've successfully tagged "The Paper."
R.O.D. the TV is a wildly entertaining and dramatic anime series (even more so the precursor OVA), and I came upon a good amount of Yomiko art while hunting and tracking various auctions for anime art. In total, I nabbed a 43-sheet set of Yomiko and other characters, plus a 17-sheet set of Yomiko solo.
