My son is really into the video game Halo, and my daughter thinks we should make the photo below into a chocolate transfer. I have made a few chocolate transfers, but I am wondering if this might be way to complicated to do.

What do you think?

I would use a online program to turn it into a pencil sketch which would make it easier to outline and then fill it in with the colors you want.

A good online site is http://www.dumpr.net/sketch.php

I did it with the photo you posted and got this

That is a very cool picture! Not to say it can't be done because Whimsical Bakehouse bakery has a tutorial for a chocolate portrait that is fantastic -

But...even though I love to do chocolate transfers, I find the easiest and most effective ones are logos or simple outline drawings.

What about just using the logo on cookies or cupcakes - it looks pretty straightforward.

Thanks! Those are great resources. I think you're right and I will probably just go with the logo.
