All characters are made out of 9mm plywood. To get the correct shape for the characters we used a data projector to project the images on the plywood and drew around the shapes. We then cut them out with a jigsaw.
Painting then started with a primer followed by 2-3 coats of outdoor paint. We then used a paint marker to outline the character.
The larger characters are held up by 2 very large brackets and we weigh them down with pavers. The smaller characters use 1-2 smaller barckets each.
