Does "portrait" cover full body painting like ones or just head shots like what would be next to your hp bar and stuff?

Edit: Nevermind. I found a great picture but my husband still says he looks like a werewolf. :(

Anybody know a good link to patterns for stitching a picture frame? I'd like to stitch a frame that looks like wood..

I'm gonna join this one, I think. I have my images, just have to scale down (by hand cause I do things the hard way) and hope I have the colors already in my stash... :D
Edit: Ok one image only took about 3 hours, I'm geeked. Only have to order one color as well, but I'm gonna do the whole order as if I were doing this on commission..plus I need more black and white anyhow *any excuse to order beads*

I just realized that my "villain" entry that I didn't finish in time, totally fits this challenge. BMH - you and I were on the same wave length!
...
Oh wait, didn't suggest this as a challenge WAY back when? That would explain it LOL XD
And yes, adding a frame will make everything look more finished and complete, it's worth it people!

Looking forward to seeing what you guys come up with! Anyone willing to put up a couple of WIPs? I'd be happy to start a guessing game! ;)

Bex, I love that idea! Please post up some WIPs guys! :D Once I get my stuff ordered and start working on it I will definitely do so. If nothing else, I really enjoy watching a piece come together!
