Ivysaur Build Notes

Build from the head down, attach the front legs as soon as possible. 
Keep moving back towards the end of the body, attaching the back legs 
once that part is reached. Right around here you'll want to construct
and attach the bulb. 

The bulb is the tricky part. Build from the inside out, 
starting with the bright yellow piece. As you make
the petals of the bulb, attach them by their tabs to the tabs
on the yellow center piece. All tabs should be pointed
straight down, with the tip of the yellow piece being
oriented as up. Once all the petals are attached, start the green ring of the trunk.
Attach 49 and 50 to each other before using 50's tabs to attach 
to the main bulb. After those are attached, attach piece 51 (the trunk)
to what you have constructed so far. Set this aside for now, and start the leaves.

Even though they used the same parentheses as the upper bulb, 
the bottom sides of the leaves are not really optional, since
they are more visible in the final build. They match up
the same way though; 55-(55), 52-(52), etc. Build 52 and 53, along with their bottoms,
and then start attaching the other two leaves. 52 and 53
are directly across from each other, and 54 and 55 attach on either side.
Do not build both top and bottom for 54/55 however; attach the tops first, 
and once you have a full ring, attach the bottoms of the two parts (54)/(55), so
that the tabs are hidden. 

Then use the central tabs of the leaves to attach the leaves and bulb. 
This piece will be quite heavy, so it would be recommended 
to reinforce the inside of the body before attaching, 
although not required. Now carefully attach the bulb; be sure you
have as much built as possible while still having enough
room to support the bulb from the inside of the back. After
attaching the bulb, it gets very hard to maneuver. Once the bulb is done 
you should only have 3 pieces remaining. Attach them, closing with 58. 


One recommendation while building is to smooth the edges of
the pink petals by cutting them circularly, and to accent
the edges of the green leaves by cutting notches out (some guidelines
are in the textures already, but don't limit it to that- have fun with it)


Numbers on the optional page reflect when you should 
build them if you chose to do so; they are not required. 
Those pieces are simply the back sides of the other parts.
Those pieces are labeled with ("#") parentheses, and they match
up with the number. (43) goes with 43, (45) with 45, and so on.
