Here's what I do: Go to Michael's and look for the smaller sets. I get the vehicle set. It has a bunch of good colors (red, yellow, green, gray, and black) and each set comes with one of the expandible boards as shown in shaowebb's opening post. Seeing as I use most of those colors I'm getting a two for one deal.Kimi said:I've never been able to find the large bead board. My local stores (Michael's, AC Moore, Wal Mart) don't have them, and I couldn't find them online for cheap. Anyone know where I can order?

Made these in the past year-ish and had a lot of fun making them.
I'll finish the rest of the FFVI cast and the Sprite when I have a little more time. problem is the sprite colors and the bead colors don't always match (look at Locke's hair) so it can be a little bit of a challenge. I also meant to make some Megaman sets and give them away on GAF in celebration of MM9 but never got around to it.
EDIT:
Forgot about my Pac-Man magnets. I eventually want to do the Galaga ships and a bunch of random Tetris blocks.

Good ironing work on those cupcakes but you're supposed to peel off the wax paper before you display the final work.Captain N said:I did this whole thing with cupcakes

Tremis said:My wife and I just made this one. Thanks to the OP for the thread and advice. Pretty fun!
Ikopi said:Sabca, love the color scheme and the visor really stands out.
I have also made some new ones but I will have to take some photos first. Something for this afternoon maybe.
