Very nice!

I had actually considered doing one for Sailor Moon, but this one:

Only thing that was stopping me was that I'm stuck on NES only right now.

Well, I didn't get mine done and I probably won't be able to get my smaller one done either (I've had a horrible "crick" in my neck since Friday that's causing a headache bad enough to make me nauseous) so I guess I'll put my bigger project on hold and perhaps I can finish and enter him in a different contest.

For those of you that were wondering, it was supposed to be Master Splinter from the Ninja Turtles.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that MeiTow - hope your neck / head feels better soon!

Everyone's made some wonderful efforts, and even if people couldn't get everything done there were some fab ideas. But there's still one more day to get entries posted!

And so, here is my second entry. Apologies in advance for crappy photo-taking!

This is my Skyrim character, Valena. She is in an 8x10" hand painted frame and is 14,411 stitches (if I've counted it up right). Ignore that circle on the right, it's the reflection of my ceiling light :D
