Another large personal project of mine that I considered a bit of a 'rite of passage' for my bead spriting hobby.
This is a custom sprite made by a talented artist by the name of AbyssWolf on DA. This sprite in particular has been beaded quite a few times, and I figured I would give it a shot as well. I was quite hesitant to iron it at first, but I did manage to piece the thing together. Honestly it didn't turn out that great.
Despite it all, a friend of mine posted this image to reddit, and it somehow garnered nearly a million views. It was nice to have a few minutes of fame.
8,094 beads.
I don't have a link (heh) to the original sprite, but I'm sure you can find it through AbyssWolf on DA.
