Re: John Lennon Perler Project WIP
I actually used PerlerPal and put a black and white photo in there. Here is the original photo I worked off of...
PerlerPal is good because it will give you the exact number of beads you'll need as well as the grid with the number of boards. You have the option of changing up the palettes in between hama, perler and hama + perler. I changed up the colours a bit because sometimes (like KG Chart) the colour options they provide don't really go. So in stead of using Hama black, I used dark grey to make it stand out more and instead of using Hama white I used PhotoPearl ivory.

Wow, holy crap that's amazing. You must be really patient to do something like that. How many different colors did that take?

Thanks for the advice. I'll have to try out the Perler Pal. I thought about doing a portrait of my dog in perler. That would be cool.
