Drill a hole in one end of the extra-large and small ovals. Drill holes in both ends of the medium and large ovals. Make sure the hole is large enough for the brad to swivel
Paint the extra-large oval and the two medium ovals with olive green. Paint the large oval and the two medium ovals with bright green. Paint the two medium ovals and small oval with honey brown.
Rouge the cheek on the extra-large head oval with fuchsia. Dry brush the edges of all the ovals with dark pine.
