Peyote Tiger

They should have a category for beadwork >_>

For those of you who haven't seen it (which I imagine is very few) here is the (finally) finished beaded tiger piece!

I think '' sums this up very nicely. Its been a good two years in coming, and was a gift for . He seems to like it so its all worthwhile then

Some details:
Made entirely out of beads, and stitched together using peyote stitch. I made the pattern myself using a random photo off google and paint (very high tech, i know ). Unfortunately I simply CANNOT find the picture again, so I can't link to the original source
I've forgotten the exact dimensions but its about 6'x4.5'
Time taken is about 95 hours, all said and told. If I didn't make so many mistakes and knot the string so much that would be a lot less >_>
Theres a billion and one mistakes in it, and I tend to look at it and cringe. 'That bead should be gold. That stripe should be longer' etc etc. But you shall never know the true mess made of it!
I hate the ear. -_- Tiger ears have tons of fluff in them. You try doing fluff with beads and two colours. Seriously, I'll give $50 to anyone who can make pixels look fluffy.

It looks about 10 million times better in person. All shiny and shit And the finished product is in a frame, with some extra bits and pieces. This will get moved to scraps as soon as I can get my hands on a photo.

Comments and questions greatly appreciated
