My first attempt at a pattern.  Can someone tell me if the head is too big for the body?

Hmmm, wouldn't do any good to hear from me as I'm just starting out also making patterns. I'm kind of sticking for now of just the portrait patterns from a photo. I've had some mild success so far Saggioculo, but as the professor DonR says, practice, practice and when you think you have it, practice some more. Mine are in the "Computer Software" section under "Portrait Patterns".

I tell you...this pattern is killing me!!!  I've been asked to make this project as a gag gift for someone, but I just can't get the pattern right.  I would post the whole pattern, but I'm afraid some folks may take offense to it.  The offending part is just someone standing in the background giving the other guy the finger.  No kidding I've been working on this pattern for over three days!!  Very frustrating!

 Perhaps Saggioculo, one of the pattern makers could provide you with their email addy so that you could send it to them so they can work on it. Sorry but I'm not confident enough yet to work on patterns for others yet. It's a thought though. When do you need the pattern for?

Did a bit of cleaning up plus added a bit thickness to the skull lines and try to fatten this guy to match the head ;D fonts are calligraphy so that it should not fall off.
I hope it is ok?

The problem with this pattern...is I have nothing to work with.  I have to make the artwork then make the stencil from that artwork.  Problem is that I can't draw, I mean I can't even draw stick people.  Another problem I'm facing is that the second character will be standing behind the first on...giving him the finger. 
The cleaned up version of the first guy is awesome and I will be using that one instead of the one I did...thank you so very much!
