Fun project that can easily be completed in less than a day, and the kids can join in for the painting.

Cut from a sheet of 4mm MDF, using a laser cutter. But you could do it with a scroll saw, jigsaw, or a fret saw and a lot of patience.

Painted with water based acrylic paint.

1:1 Illustrator cut guides attached below. Font used is Komika Axis, which can be downloaded freely from the internets.

Painted with water based acrylic paint.

Since i laser cut this, I etched a guide for the outer black line, which was very helpful while painting.
