Anybody up for making a graph for BOTW? I actually want to make a crochet graphagan out of it, so I need it fairly clean, no more than 10 or 15 colors, and about 175-225 by 225-250 stitches.a little bigger or smaller is ok. These are the best images I've been able to find or take myself.

Thank you so much.

I have the scroll that I can attempt to take better pics of. I'm mostly interested in the dragon and the swordsman; I don't need it exact. it can have a single line of the guardians, the whole thing doesn't have to have guardians. I don't need the lettering.

I actually have a decent image of this to work from. The only problem is that it's very obviously meant to be on a tapestry like fabric, so you can see the weave in it. It'll take some work to just get Calamity Ganon & the Champion, so as long as you don't mind waiting a while, I'll do it!

Quick question - do you want it to have the changing colours like you see in the image (for example, you can see a number of greens in the Ganon beast) or would you prefer something more straightforward?

I don't mind a few color changes, but as I'll be using yarn instead of DMC thread I'll be limited in my options. I really appreciate it!

Just wanted to update you with things - I am working on this now! It's proving to be an interesting challenge!
Basically, the images are just to textured to make into a simple pattern, so I am relying on my drawing skills to create something usable! I should be done with it after a few more hours, so please watch this space! :D

Forgot to ask, what file would you like the pattern in? I know you're making it into a graphgan but not sure how you want to look at it if you get my meaning :D
I have made it in PCStitch but can easily do PDFs (in black & white or colour or both!)

I have PC stitch, so it should be fine that way! Thank you!

Alright then! Here we go...

(I haven't done PDFs but if anyone wants them I'll do them as well :D )

The bit for the stitchers:
9 colours
225 x 243 stitches
16.07" x 17.36" on 14ct aida


So, I hope this fits what you were asking for, although it actually ended up being on the larger end of your size requirements to make it work better. The colours aren't a definite choice (I know you're going to use yarn anyway) and so I recommend picking out whatever colours you like best based on the original image :)

Please let me know if there's any more I can do!
