Keep the iron moving in circles — never park it in one spot. Cover with parchment paper, iron one side, flip carefully, iron the other.
Fuzzy look? Iron slightly less on the pegboard side, then texture with a towel while still warm.
Colors & Technique: Goku Head
At 1508 beads and 8 colors, the Goku Head chart sits in the L-tier of our anime collection — substantial enough to reward careful color placement, still small enough to finish in one 1.5-3-minute session. The palette runs from Black through Pastel Orange, and the pattern page's color list doubles as a shopping check: every shade is named with its exact bead count, so you can confirm your stash covers the orange dominant zones before committing.
Where It Shines
Where does the Goku Head pattern fit in a real collection? Its 48×48 footprint and 1508-bead count place it in the display tier: too detailed for a first project, but a satisfying second or third build. The orange lead color and 8-color span mean one mid-size jar of each shade covers it with leftovers. Group it with other anime designs on a pegboard wall or shadow box for a rotating exhibit.

Ironing Tips
- 💡Medium heat only — too hot and the beads over-melt and lose shape; too cool and they won't fuse.
- 💡Keep the iron moving in slow circles — staying in one spot melts that area flat.
- 💡Iron both sides and press under a heavy book while cooling to keep it flat.
