I made a valiant effort. I tried, tried, triiied to keep backstitching out, but his hands! omygosh. :pac I apologize profusely for them.
I have no idea how the backstitching will look actually stitched, so this would be one of those things where I'd suggest stitching that area in the lighter green and then kinda draping the floss around to achieve the look you're going for before actually stitching it.

Chart size: 181w x 121h which would be about 10" x 7" on 18-count Aida. Just under 7,000 stitches.

I'm glad y'all like it~ I still feel weird about his hands but maybe they'll work out. I'd love to see any progress shots~ :D
