You Will Need (7 things)

  • 1 Clear Varnish
  • 1 PVA Glue
  • 2 Paint Brush
  • 1 Emulsion Paint
  • 1 Table
  • 1 Scissors

Steps (5 steps, 240 minutes)

  1. 1

    I painted the top of this coffee table with white emulsion paint. It took 3 or 4 coats to be opaque enough

  2. 2

    I cut the panels out of my comic. If you want the story to be readable then you will need two comics as this way you are cutting back and front of the page.

  3. 3

    Lay your panels down before gluing in place

  4. 4

    Glue your panels in place with PVA glue

  5. 5

    Apply a clear varnish over the top.
