Finally finished the middle third. Happy to reach that milestone. Hoping the rest goes a little quicker.

Oh wow, this is going to be really lovely when you're done! Blends two kinds of nostalgia for me, the game of course and just the way cross-stitch looks (probs due to a sprinkle of early memories). Really really perfect combination of aesthetics for my tastes.

Thinking about it, does seem like a painful project probably lol. Seems like a lot of colors in some real random spots to get the details right. Just remember the outcome 😅

Edit: I don't have any connection to cross-stitch whatsoever (though I do hang dope art in my home in general), but I am subbing to this community in hopes I see how it turns out lol, cheers!

My daughter and I have been playing through the remakes, so this will be for her when it's done. It's been fun reliving some nostalgia combined with a new feel. And yeah, the colors definitely jump around a bit.
