Please excuse the poor photo, bad lighting! I'm so proud of this, it's my first gaming related cross stitch. And now I have to give it to my friend for his birthday...lucky I like him!

I did make a few changes to the original pattern while I was doing it, hopefully it all turned out ok. Give me some feedback peeps!

P.S I hope these photos work, it's my first time posting...

That looks gorgeous, a great first gaming x stitch to start with.

And like Krybak17 said, the gold floss is a really nice touch

WOW. Nice clean stitching for metallic thread too. Just a shame you have to give it away. :P

Amazing! I've seen the pattern and liked it, but seeing it stitched in full gold is just beautiful.
Great job on sticking with the metallic thread, since it is not the easiest thing to work with.

great job on gold metallic floss because it is very difficult working with them.

That looks so good! Since I would like to make this in the future, out of curiosity, what changes did you make?

This looks amazing! I can't believe you did it all with metallic floss. I just recently did this little witch paper doll cross stitch and it had a little bit of that gold metallic stuff on it. I wanted to scream by the time I was done working with it. I can't even imagine doing an entire pattern. Kudos! :good:
