I'm glad you like him. I think he's been my favorite thus far. Somehow he just turned out spiffy!

I love the look of Charmander. He was always my favorite starter. I'm going to have to see if I have all of the colors.
Also, if there is no thread count indicated, is it 2?

Yes. Most of the cross stitch parts (the solid squares) are just basic cross stitch in 2 count thread. The only 1 count threads are the light gold for the tummy and the light orange for the skin. Instead of adding cross stitch shading like I did Pikachu, I was attempting to use thickness of line to suggest shade. I just can't show the difference on my CS program.
Maybe I should look into using KG more . . .
