| | Cel-shaded animation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The name comes from the clear sheets of acetate, called cels, that are painted on for use in traditional 2D animation, such as Disney classics. |
 | | In hand-drawn animation or traditional animation, from the mid-19th century onwards, artists would start by creating pencil drawings; these would then be transferred onto celluloid, made of cellulose nitrate, either by using xerography (a photocopying technique) and paint, or ink and paint. |
 | | Over time, more cel-shaded titles such as Dark Cloud 2, Cel Damage, Klonoa 2, the Viewtiful Joe series, and XIII were released with positive feedback, though none were considered blockbusters in terms of sales figures. |
