Looking Good there Queen B.!

RMDC -> I'm going to assume you don't want my color choices...lol

Here's mine so far. Finished band 3 last night and started on the guitar hero band to keep the regular game/rhythm game theme going. :) I think I need to outline the symbols on the journey band.

I posted all my color changes save for the Pokemon one as I honestly don't remember which color I ended up using. The only couple I changed was the outline from 2 different colors to 310 and I changed Charmander's reddish color, but I don't remember to what.

I changed the Journey band because I wanted a white-robe as well as a red-robe, and the glyphs on the sides to a lighter color, since they're glowy in the game. Do you really want those color changes? I am not sure if the yellows work yet. Still working on that.

Yeah, I'm interested in those as well; I'm trying to make notes where people made radical changes (as opposed to substitutions).

EDIT: Mei, that's a fantastic Journey band! I really love how the reverse concept has come together. :thumbsup:

Thanks! It's been an interesting journey! Specially working only with colors I've been able to acquire since joining this board!

If you want the colors I'll try and see if I can remember what they were. lol

Here's my plan for my last 2 bands. Used katdun's text and dug up my old 8 x 32 challenge guitar hero guitar pattern for the GH border :)

I've done so many color changes, it's probably easier for me to just attach the file.

:shock: Okay so I transferred all the patterns into my pattern maker because I liked having one thing to work off of. And then I noticed that I'd not finished the flag in the Journey band (which is my favorite I have to admit). And THEN I noticed that I'd stitched the red-robe in the wrong red! I did it in 498 Christmas Red - DK! Ooops. :blush:

So yeah. GAH! But I've finished the second band! And I got my colors to finish so it'll be well into May by the time I'm done, but I get this finished oh yes I will my precious!!!!!


Ahem - as for the other colors I meant to change for the Journey band - White robe, 712 Cream, instead of the black on the robe I did 726 Topaz - LT and the glyphs use that color. (Or colour for the Canadians/British among us!) Honestly the white could have been 3865 or B5200 too. At the moment my white robe doesn't stand out well on my oatmeal fabric. I am hoping it will with the addition of the yellows.
