Nintendo 64 Micro Console Cross Stitch

Title: Micro Nintendo64 Console
Date Completed: June 2017
Design: Lord Libidan
Count: 14
Canvas: Plastic
Colours: 13
Game: Nintendo, Pokemon Stadium & Legend of Zelda
I recently saw some awesome retro adverts for the SNES in a Japanese magazine and just fell in love with how they were sold. This idea floated around my head for some time, before I decided to create another 3D project, a super small console. The Nintendo64 jumped into my head, and I started planning based on a pixelated controller I had created some years ago. As it developed I also decided to include 2 controllers, and 2 games; Pokemon Stadium and the golden Legend of Zelda cartridges.
 
I also created a version close to the design of the original advert that inspired me:

WOW. This is absolutely perfect. Do you have supports inside to help the curve while you were working on attaching it all together?

My original plan was to superglue the plastic canvas together and then stitch on top, however I ran out so just stitched it. Oddly, as it was so small it didn't need any supports.
