I'd like to be true to the game but I've seen the icons in many variations. Can you help me out please!
Eggmosh used this pattern and added color stitches into it on this thread: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=4029 I think that colored stitching (or even white stitches) would look pretty cool on the black aida. Just make sure you have a good light when you start stitching if you use the black aida (It can really put a strain on your eyes! ).

The game uses black on white for these in-game, but blue on black is often used, because the logo/title screen: (http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VVAPJ-RC1dM/T ... lAlive.jpg), so you could do a combination of white and blue on the black if you wanted to!

Cheers!

Awesome, post them when you're done, I'd love to see them
Super excited to find these! I recently purchased Portal 2 online, and I'm super pumped to start playing it. I've seen these icons stitched before and I've always thought they looked sweet. I'm thinking about using some variegated floss - maybe on black or white... maybe a blanket could work out too... the possibilities.

Love these patterns! Portal 2 is one of my all time favourite games. I'm always so excited when someone new starts to play it.
Hope you manage to pull yourself away from the game long enough to start these stitchings. And be sure to post progress shots when you do
Portal 2 is one of my favorite games, too! I have downloaded these patterns, but sadly just haven't had a chance to stitch them up. I love seeing others' progress, though!
