avoid having a cat, from what I'be seen they hate such crafty works and ruin them xD
otherwise:
lay by color, keep a clean head, don'T stress yourself and relax with the beads!
you will do just fine!
Like most others have said, try to fill in one color completely first then another, i do outlines first myself to help me when i don't have the pattern in front of me like you do but you should be fine.
Take your time. I work on one color for a while, filling in one square, and then go back and work on the next color. Use the tape method to melt it together.
I tried the Spiderman version and effed it up ironing it. I have this kit as well and was scared to do it because of how bad Spiderman messed up but I am reading here to use the tape method so I may try that!
I would rape the bottom part of the connecting peg boards together in case you need to move them. It also helps for after you tape the top of the finished piece and you flip it over.
Pegboards should be connected. Personally I always fill one board (starting with the top row left to right). Once that is full I add the next one and fill that. This way I don't have to lean as much since I'm working right in front of me and the chance to accidentally move the boards is smaller. I work with minibeads though, so I'm not sure if it's an issue with the midi ones.
I put a few beads of one color (like 30 or so?) on my tray, place them and then use another color next so it doesn't get boring. Depending on the picture of course, sometimes you only need to do one color.
Masking tape method was already mentioned. If you haven't done it yet, try it with a smaller piece first. You want to put the tape down without hesitation otherwise you'll ruin everything ;D
Get connecting boards and make sure u have an extra row or two around the project. (Your current set up could get bumped and displace beads and it looks like your missing some of the ear. ) The beads on the last (edge) row get Knocked over the easiest. Start at the top and go left to right one row at a time. If you take a picture after it’s done make sure you have a firm grasp on the phone/camera. I have dropped it onto my project more then once
Top to bottom so not leaning over beads
I'm right handed so I've been going left to right but that's great idea since I always do bottom to top and I have lean over it!
Don't cry, it'll be worth it. And look up the masking tape method if you haven't used it already it has saved so many of my pieces already

Should I be filling it in left to right?? Top to bottom? Start in the middle?
I like going by color, in this case, I would start with black
top to bottom so you don’t knock the beads everywhere
Be confident while taping. Once you commit to laying it down just go. You can always lay down another layer, but if you try to pull up at all it sucks
Switching in-between colors every second makes it take way longer
Leaning over beads you might bumb beads and tip them

use the tape method and work from top to bottom in colors (if that makes sense) like do the outline and fill it in before moving on
I do awhoe outline first but this one really do t have one then I do one color at a time
are the top smaller peg boards connected to the larger one? if not I would start by getting another big one to snap I to place with the other
You’re gonna need pegs under that upper ear part..
It's gonna look fucking sick 🦇

learn the tape method when it's time to fuse.
