Boba Fett Unicorn Pattern-PLEASE!!!

[shiralily]

Hi guys!
I've been looking at this site for a long time now, and I realized I should probably join up!
I will post stuff I've made soon, but for the time being, I'm in need of help, and you guys are such a talented group of people that it's natural I should turn to you!
My boyfriend is OBSESSED with Boba Fett, and I found a picture on Etsy which he loves, and would love to get it turned in to a cross stitch pattern. I really need to get started on it soon-hoping for Valentine's Day competion or at least partial completion-I'm not going to do the pink background.

Here's the picture: http://img3.etsystatic.com/il_fullxfull.223556095.jpg

Thank you guys so much again, and I hope to hear from you soon!

Here it is, in the default 299*299 size:

As you might want a smaller image, I didn't clean it all the way. Also, some grays might be consolidated, so it would use less colours.
If this is what you want, I can clean it further.

Also, regarding the pink background, you might wish to dye the aida cloth. I have no personal experience with it, but in theory it should work.

Thank you for getting back so soon! Is there any way you could make it into a pdf? I can't read the other type of files. Also, how big would that be on the cloth?
Ty again!!!

On a 14-count cloth, it would be ~21*21 inches.
On an 18-count, 17*17 inches. Either is quite large, in my opinion. What size would you like it to be?

[shiralily]

Preferably 10x10 at the largest on 18 ct, but if it looks crappy, then bigger would be ok too ty again for all your hard work!!!

Well, "crappy" is a very subjective matter. Here's how it would look in 100*100 (5.5"*5.5" in 18ct) (almost completely uncleaned):

I think it's OK, but of course it's not as good as in higher resolutions. So, What size you want it to be?

[shiralily]

I can't really see the 5x5 but it looks good from what I can. If a 6x6 or 8x8 would look better, then I'd go with that! You rock! Ty so muuuuuuuuuuch!

[shiralily]

Can anyone help with the pdf of the 5x5 resize plz?
TY :):)

I second the request of the 5x5 in pdf!
