Cutting your screens

Plan your screens based on the order you want to print. Consider where you want ties and where you don't.
Picture
Screen 1
If you have two parts that come close to connecting, you might consider leaving them attached with a tie that bridges the two areas together.

Screen 2
​When printing the face, remember to add eyeballs to block out the white parts of the eyes

Your third screen could be a shirt, or the background, or it could be values on the face.
