Final Fantasy IV characters

Post by mfay »

Here's my first complete pixel-based cross-stitch project, featuring the character portraits from one of my favorite childhood games :yahoo:

I spent a lot of time comparing floss colors to the colors on screen, and pulling out and restitching colors that didn't look right once stitched, so I'm happy with the end results. But after all that, the colors look a little off in this scan, so I'm going to try to post another picture once I get it framed.

Finally got it framed and photographed (only seven months later :blush: )

The finished piece looks great, and that is some dedication to color matching, but I would say it paid off since it looks flawless to me. Great work and can't wait to see future project.

This is fantastic!
I particularly like the guy in the top right corner.
I wish I'd had the foresight to use coloured aida when I started my project, I've got a hell of a lot of blue to do, I'm working on the megaman 2 select screen currently.
