Companion cube

Another cross-stitch project. This one is the weighted companion cube from Portal, which, for the uninitiated is a video game where you play around with the laws of physics to solve various dangerous puzzles. I was playing around with the pixels as stitches, but this game had much more advanced graphics, so it was quite different. I didn’t use any pre-deigned font for this, I just kind of made it up on my own. I’d really like to frame this, but I’m a bit of a procrastinator so it hasn’t happened yet.

If I were to do this again, I would probably split the embroidery floss into smaller strands, as the cube is very thick and looks a little heavy to me.
