His Horrible Little Face.  Fanart for Disco Elysium  28 count evenweave in a 3″ hoop. In response to more requests over on Steam, here’s the pattern for the greatest thing I’ve ever created for cross stitch purposes: Cuno’s evil little face from Disco Elysium. See the bottom of the post for my best guesses at the colors I used, and what symbols they relate to. Notes I’m posting this at a time when I can’t create a nice clean pattern, so here’s a scan of my notebook. The letters are made with a mix of normal stitches and backstitch/double running stitch. For placement, I recommend looking at the finished bit, and starting with the upper-left-hand corner of the F. The notes can function as a pattern, but you have to scoot the !? over if you’re working in a small hoop.  Also of note: I experimented with using some double running stitch on the edges of his face. Main pulling that dark purple shadow color up around the orange hair. I decided it didn’t help much and didn’t bother to pull it out. But, if it works for you, it’s a great technique for solidifying wobbly edges.  Legal Things This pattern was created using the original game art, and then pixelating it into something workable. So, I basically traced the original art. You have my permission to use this pattern to create your own piece for personal use, and only personal use. If you want to post pictures of your finished work, please credit the game developers for their amazing game art, and me for working up the pattern. Colors, DMC Dark Purple: 154 (black square) Medium-Light Purple: 3041 (blue square with x) Lightest Purple:453 (blue square with dot) Light green: 524 (horizontal green lines) Lightest green: 3072 (green square with diagonal dash) White: 3866 (no mark) Dark Brown: 632 or 433 (brown square) Golden Brown: 435 (orange square with dot) Darkest Brown: ? (solid brown square)  Red Highlight: 21 (red square with x) The Hair: 606 (orange outline) Blue Shade: Oh gods, I lost that label in 2003 during the friendship bracelet incident. It might not even be DMC. Good luck. (Purple box with diagonal dash)

Happy Obsessive Quarantine Fun Time, Greed Monarch Pattern 28 count evenweave in a 3″ hoop.  In response to requests over on Steam, here’s the pattern for my Greed Monarch fanstitch from Kingdom: Two Crowns. My apologies, but I’ve long since lost track of all the colors I used. It seems like the main body of the stag uses DMC 451 and 453, and the lighter grey that makes up the robes is probably 535. One of the dark grays is 3021.  Not noted on the pattern: I outlined a good deal of the cross stitch using a double running stitch. This, alongside something in my fabric, created the waviness of the bottom line. Absolute happy accident. A backstitch could also be used for the outlining. Legal Things This pattern was created using the original pixel art from the aforementioned game, with minor alterations by me.

I ran away from color for a bit. Now, I reface the beast. Look at its fearsome face. Such dread. Such malice. (Sketchdaily prompt: Pooh) . . . . . . . #sketchdaily https://www.instagram.com/p/BqYX8liHrUd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11rquv4uldnih

I tried to restrict the palette, but the colors. They keep happening. Halp. Haaaaaaaaalp. https://www.instagram.com/p/BpuTpHOHKEL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hlyas4zplac3

With zero idea of how to use watercolor pens, I forced myself to play and, like, use color. Color! It's madness! https://www.instagram.com/p/BpqgjTLA3gO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nh3l4rj7rbht

7/7: Round one of sanding has concluded on the Insomnia Llama, and I might, MIGHT, be able to sleep the dusty sleep of satisfaction. Thank y'all for the likes. It has made this insanity a little less silly, but in a good way. https://www.instagram.com/p/BpXkyqIAv_Z/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1b3wenij2x60y

5/?: 4.5 hours. Insomnia carving complete. Insomnia sanding incoming. Insomnia fatigue epic. https://www.instagram.com/p/BpXdRQgAfgU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=2lzcdqhz6rq7

4/?: Hour three of insomnia carving. Head officially way too big for initial plans. Will be futzing with proportions on the fly. Nothing could possibly! Go! Wrong! Taking a break for fud. https://www.instagram.com/p/BpXNi0OApb5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1x5h78xsgrpot

2/?: Being very careful due to being Very Tired. Blocking out the entire pattern on the block. https://www.instagram.com/p/BpW24ggA6Sh/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1kb8vsqt6cdjj

Right. I can't sleep. Let's put me through a carving challenge instead of letting my brain rot on Facebook. Llama design, prototype in basswood. Doodle to work it out. https://www.instagram.com/p/BpW0qFMAetJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=l3ixxo881bxf

And then, I made my first major mistake since starting this particular round of carving... by cutting the butt off my second Tiny Grief Friend. I... really... well. Damn. https://www.instagram.com/p/BoY6b2fg5Rr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=9n5lo789u7ej

Oh. Hello. I sorry, but I'm busy eating myself. Please come back later. https://www.instagram.com/p/BoTEVxkgLJq/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=n7f6w8sh6jnj

[tinylittleoddthings]

Because it's just not me unless there's an impromptu Tiny Grief Friend. https://www.instagram.com/p/BoDqCvIg9F3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=49x6uf2hqtdg

Apparently, worry bulbs self-replicate. Who'd have thought.
