This design is a sketch stitch embroidery design.
This means there will be some small spaces between the stitches creating a cool sketch stitch look.  
Due to the large size of these designs, it is recommended that you stabilize your project well.  
Do not adjust the size of these designs as it may affect the integrity of the sketch stitch.

 In order to achieve a "shimmer" effect, you can add a sheet of iridescent mylar underneath your sketch stitch design.  When laundering any designs with mylar, do not use the clothes dryer.  Instead, we recommend that you hang to dry or lay flat to dry.  {ref link}
