Wasting your time - Willy Tschager - 2016-05-27
This will teach me a lesson! Honestly I never dreamt that someone else could work on a Western part when I tried to upload this:
3626bpw1.dat (Size: 94.32 KB / Downloads: 3)
only to find out it was already on the PT:

As mine is a bit more elaborate than Damien's what shall I do?

Could you post a screenshot of the two parts together so we can compare them here?
Then we will decide.

I have to say the left one looks a lot more similar to the original.

Me also, you can overwrite my part.
Good job! It was not wasting time.

Thanks a lot, but I will not submit until yours has become official. Since it is already certified I guess it will be included in the next update. There is no reason why it shouldn't be used 'til mines goes through the PT.

I don't object to Willy's version being more true to that picture, but I would like to see a second picture making sure that the blurred version isn't a misprint.
RE: Wasting your time - Magnus Forsberg - 2016-05-28
I've had a good look at some more pictures of this design and I have to say that Willy's version is more correct than Damien's.
The certified part at the PT is even wrong. It is missing the frown between the eyes.

I DID IT AGAIN (Anybody more stupid than me out there?)! I authored a pattern which is already official:

Any advice? Here the versions for comparison (click on the image to get the large version):

Overall I prefer your version, except for the jagged pseudo text line that I like better in original one.
RE: Wasting your time - Magnus Forsberg - 2018-06-06
I agree with Philo.
Please note that there shouldn't be any white area in this pattern, since it is printed on a white tile.
