Anybody stitch screen shots?

[boatofcar]

I've considered stitching full screen shots before. Has anybody done any they want to share? How big are they?

i've only considered screenshots from NES and SNES, since those measure 256x224, which on 16 count fabric would be 16" x 14"
as for actual practice, i did one from an NES game, since there are fewer colors and the black background saved a lot of stitches, as black fabric is not hard to come by. i did it on 14 count fabric measuring 18" x 15" so i couldn't get the entire screenshot in. but here it is anyways:

That's awesome! Bet the rocks at the bottom took you a while

That's really nice! Hopefully I'll be moving into my own place soon (with my own craft room!) and I will be able to shut myself in there and stitch as long as I want.

I have a WIP going (which I really, really need to finish sometime, it's been a WIP for too long!) of a screenshot of the Phantasy Star II title screen on Mega Drive / Genesis. Like a number of MD/Gen titles, it's 320x224 (a lot are 256x224 like the SNES etc as well though), and like heliumkidd I did mine on a black background (well it was actually more like an incredibly dark blue, lol) to save on stitches.
It's around here on the board somewhere, I think

EDIT: Found the topic for it, wow this is going back a while lol: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=896

I did a cutscene screenshot from FinalFantasyIX a while back. Bahamut vs Alexander.


Roughly 30,000 stitches.

Took about 3 months to complete.
