So Instead of the video tut I was going to make I decided to make it a picture tut. ( mainly because I forgot to record while making these)

     What you will need

Cork Board

Ruler

Flat Paint Brush

Sharp Scissors

Red and Black Acrylic Paint

First off you'll need a 12x12 line of cork board, you can buy four in a pack at Walmart for about 5 USD, it should look like this.

Then you want to take your ruler and with a sharpie (or anything that will mark on the board) and make a grid comprised of one inch all the way across and all the way down.

Now at this point you want to draw your design on the board, making a pixel looking heart base. Now comes the hard part which is cutting the board, because this will put some serious strain on your hand, not to mention you will be doing this four times and your hand will be hurting after the first board cut. 

When finished it should look like this.

( excuse the mess, I'm normally pretty busy hahah)

Now is when you begin painting, now you can do this on the grid side of the board, or you can turn it over as I did and just eye it and begin to paint. It's quite easy to tell where the square begins and ends.

Now remember you only want to make three full hearts and one half heart. this is to put some detail to it and of course to show your battle scars.

After you have done this the final product should look like this and you are all done. Congratulations you just made yourself a decent decoration for the house ( or your room)

Official business: I DaroUsata will be making the web shooter shown in The Amazing Spider-Man 2. I don't expect it to be easy, but I don't exactly expect it to be difficult using the reference/model above.

All progress will be posted here, along with on my primary blog DaroUsata
