Just found the one linked, I like it but I can't find the high resolution version, so I was curious to see where people get theirs.

So, it's my turn to be that person. It's not "cell" shading but cel shading.

TIL

Do you happen to know why? I assumed they were identified 'cells' that had a flat color inside.

“Cel” stands for celluloid, which was used and painted on for classic animation (which popularized the simple flat color painting style that you see imitated in modern cel-shading).
