P.P.A – Project Pixel Art
This is my new project. True dedication to the oldschool art. I created a set and an album for the progress, see links below. So far the project consists of three missions.
Mission 1 – Megaman II Cross Stitch Intro Screen
I will cross stitch the megaman II intro screen. The aida I use are 7,2 squares per centimeter, and the picture is 555×256 pixels large. That makes 142 080 cross stitches, and the size of the final result will be approximately 90×42 centimeters. Although I won’t stitch the black parts (I’m using black aida), it will spare me some stitching.
The original picture:
The pages for the stitch pattern printed out:
18 DCM coloured threads are used for the pattern:
This is the aida used to stitch on:
The weapons of choice; needle and thread
Mission 2 – Drink Coasters
The drink coasters are actually already done, and they were made of Hama beads. I think I will expand with some more, though:
Mission 3 – Megaman Pixel Painting
The idea is to get all bosses from the Megaman series (part I, II and III) – plus Megaman himself and his allies – and then do some kind of montage with them all. So far I’ve completed the Megaman II bosses on pixelated paper (created in Excel, really easy).

All bosses collected (They are all gonna be cut out in the end, but I haven’t got that far – yet):
