Ash And Pikachu 3D Perler Beads

I did this Ash and Pikachu Perler beads based off of a design I found made originally by Nerdegory. Click here to check their stuff out. The design itself was not hard but trying to get it to stand up was. I should have made holes to just insert them into but I am stubborn and figured I'd find another way. I tried to remove the ironed beads. Fail. Tried to burn them out. Fail. Ended up using glue. Lots of glue. They are standing and drying right now and I'll get rubber cement or something later to make sure they stay put. This was the first 3D type design I've tried and I really like it. I'll try some more soon.
