I am almost finished with my Dune square! It should be done this week or next. That's the plan, anyway! After that, I need to whip up an anniversary gift for my best friend, then it'll be off to my FFIX square. :D

I love how the background of your patch matches the grass.

^_^ Ugh, I've been silent/away for far too long! My spring semester will *finally* be over tomorrow and I am just itching to get working on my squares! I'm still trying to get my patterns and such together/worked out so that I can get moving. I love love love the work that has been posted so far, so many great squares!

Oh yeah, I wanted to check... I was thinking of doing a Castle Crasher's square.

How do these look? I'm only going to pick one of them, it depends on which one people like more and which one works better for a pattern!

The problem I am having putting these two into KGcharts, it doesn't like the colors in them I think. Any suggestions? I would welcome any help as well in being able to make the patterns, I am not very good at turning non-sprites into patterns! ^_^;;

I'm also going to show my 2 sprite based games, which I have made my patterns for already! (Yay!):

TMNT for NES:

Thanks to some help from BMH I have started my second square, part of the game over screen from Spyro 3 Ripto's Rage.
This one is going to go FAST. Lots of large areas of the same color and lots of free time this summer :)
It had one of the prettiest pallets I've ever assembled.

the colors!

For the Castle Crashers patch - the deer's ear in the red square is distracting so I'd use the yellow knight.

Wow! Great progress!! :) And you're so organized! I'm still throwing all my floss in a baggie when I'm working on a project!

And I still haven't taken a picture of my Curse of Monkey Island square! Must do soon....

Hooray! :yahoo: I finally finished the Bionic Commando! No more filling black background! No more explaining to people what I'm stitching and what the Bionic Commando is and why I'm stitching a cutscene from a 20+ year old videogame! Now to start the second one.
