I own a cel cutting of the dew fairies flying. The characters are tiny, but the rendering is unbelievable. Seeing these backgrounds separated from the actors gives an even greater respect (if that's possible) for the design and background artists. It’s a beautiful sequence.

To get the delicate airbrush and transparent effects they had to use a binder made out of the bile of an ox. The stench, she said, was unbelievable. I can never watch this sequence without thinking of all those marvelously talented and un-credited women who painted the delicate milkweed pods so perfectly that you don't see the slightest trace of them boiling as they move...
