Animorphs Cross Stitch 25 x 25

Years ago I designed this cross stitch pattern to represent Animorphs in a personal project and the @animorphs-30 zine gave me a wonderful excuse to make a new and improved version.

As you can see the original isn't centered which was 90% of my reason for redoing it. I still think the centering could be better but the second one doesn't grate on me like the original. The other 10% of my reason was that the colors of the A did not pop as much as I wanted even though I liked the effect of the purple (that is a variegated thread, not different purples).

But I also switched the greys to browns for the update and it looks like I managed a much more gradual color transition the second time.

"Just tell them we're Animorphs." "Tell them we're what?" "Idiot teenagers with a death wish."

THE ANIMORPHS30 ZINE IS HERE!!!

(And thanks to @gros-chat-fait for this beautiful cover art!!)

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the series, creators of the fanbase have come together to bring you a zine of nearly 200+ pages (at which point I'm not even sure we can call it a zine anymore! The correct term at this point would be anthology!), filled with art and writing.

You can download it as a PDF here, or if you just want to view it without downloading, it's available on Canva here.

Currently I'm still working on options for getting a printed release, but self-printing is still an option! Stay tuned—there should be a self-print mirror available shortly (I'll just need to change some links to QR codes, among other things).

Bo Peep uses a non-sentient one in 4 as a grappling hook

And in the first movie they show a See ‘n Say being alive in but in 3 a seemingly lifeless one is being used as a gambling machine so who knows how any of it works
