Father's Day

Step 1Fold your piece of A4 paper into 8 sections as shown. Do this by folding your paper in half, in half again, and in half again. Unfold.
Step 2Fold your piece of paper width wise to make a ‘short and fat’ rectangle. Cut half way along the middle fold from the direction of the crease.
Step 3You should now have a cut in the middle of 8 sections, as shown.
Step 4Push the folds together, using your newly cut sections to create pages in your mini book. Look to the picture for guidance.
Step 5Now that your 8 page book is assembled, you can draw in your design with pencil.
Step 6Add colour to your design using watercolour paint. Allow to dry before allowing pages to touch, as the paint will smudge.
Step 7Now that your comic book is coloured and dried, use double sided tape to secure the loose pages together.
Step 8Finally, use a black permanent pen to add detail to your design.
