Character Patterns
Zhuge Liang, the Three Kingdoms strategist, in chibi form — white scholar's robe, a small white cap, and the feather fan raised beside his head. 52x52 pegs and 1603 beads in 9 colors, mostly white and light gray, with black doing the outlines and the robe folds. Build the fan and the hat first; they set the width of everything below.
This 52×52 medium-difficulty chart uses 9 colors across a multi-board layout. Use it as-is with the printable layout below, or open it in the editor to adjust colors before you commit beads to the board.

Zhao Yun, the Three Kingdoms general, in chibi form: pale blue plate armor, a plumed helmet, a cape behind him and a long spear standing at his side. 52x52 pegs and 1747 beads in 10 colors, three of which are blues that carry all of the armor shading — keep those three apart or the plates flatten out. Pairs with the Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang charts.
Medium • 49x52
Guan Yu, the Three Kingdoms general, drawn in chibi proportions — red face, long black beard, green hooded robe and a curved blade held low. 49x52 pegs and 1332 beads in only 7 colors, so most of the chart is big flat fields of green and red inside a heavy black outline. The quickest of the three Three Kingdoms charts to bead.
