They are connected so that one has a notch opposite the leg. The center is glued together with scotch tape. Next, apply a basic background - pink paint. Further, all the same purple spots are made. At the final stage, a piglet and hooves are drawn. For the ears on the top two side bottles of the bottle are used. One forehead appears as a forehead. Below, in front of the upper cavities, there are two legs, from below, the hoofs are finished. After the last layer of paint has dried, the hack is ready, it can be taken out into the street.
