Kingdom Hearts 2 Request

Howdy...

I was wondering if someone could make me a pattern of Axel's chakrams. Here's a pretty good image of what they look like:

In a similar vein, I'd also really appreciate getting a pattern of Xigbar's weapon from KH2.

(The top-down view of them, so the middle image on the right.)

Size doesn't make a whole lot of difference, but simplifying the colors (especially on Xigbar's weapon, where there seems to be some sort of gradient/fade) would probably be helpful. However, I'm willing to work with a lot of colors if I can just get the pattern!

Thank you so much in advance!

sorry, I've been busy...and im going on vacation this weekend.

these will be easy to reduce colors and still make the gradient look fine.

but, yes. I can get out a pattern of these for you...

Erm... *waves* Hi?

I was wondering if anyone is still able to help me with this request... Someone said they could and that was over a month ago...

Not trying to be pushy, just wanting to make sure it doesn't get forgotten! Thanks!

I've started a pattern for the chakram for you, it'll be about 10-12 inches on 18 count aida, and has about 40 colours. Do you want it smaller, bigger, less/more colours?

This is what it looks like at the moment. I might try to clean up some of the white around the edges a bit more, just let me know what you think. Obviously ignore the hot pink background, that's just there to help me edit it.

Wow, that looks fantastic so far! A bit smaller might be good, but it's really no big deal so if it's extra work then don't worry about it. ^_^ I'm just happy to get a pattern!

Thank you so much!

There you go, I hope this is ok for you. I ended up starting again, it was getting confusing for me editing it in paint.net. It's a little smaller this time, on 18 count aida it will be 8 inches square. I think the chart that KG Chart pumped out looks pretty good, I think it looks closer to the original image by making the reds more vibrant and the greys on the blades more blue-ish. There are about 3 different types of white in the pattern, Blanc, Ecru and Winter White (3865). You could probably use one type for all three, but that is up to you. Anyway, let me know if you need anything changing on it.

Oh BRILLIANT! You are seriously awesome for doing that for me! I really appreciate it. It looks just about perfect, so you don't need to do anything at all!

^^;; Of course, if I could bribe you to do the other one as well...

(I kid! I'm not that greedy. Plus this is going to take me plenty of time all by itself.)

Thanks again!

Good, glad you like it. I'll get round to doing the other one someday too.
