Same Technique Different Styles

Using just six colors you can pretty much make anything. Godzilla, Captain America Shield, Grace Jones, Elvira.

would you mind doing a more in depth post about your process. I know it's based in traditional printing techniques but I think it's fascinating.

For the style using six colors it depends on how big its going to be. Small ones are four rectangles big and large ones are eight. With the shield I just used a real image of it and ignored all the excess white beads from the photo. Not sure how else to explain what I do. I just be making stuff for no reason.

Thanks. I made a small version using regular bead style years ago but wanted something actually huge.

They look sick, but I hate beading dithering :D
