This step is rather self-explanatory, get your timber and your drop-saw and start cutting. You want to end up with perfect squares, I recommend putting a stop behind the blade so that when you cut, you always end up with the same size pieces.

After it's cut, you may want to lay out the pieces in the shape of your sprite to get an idea of how big it will be. When you do this, make sure you are constantly checking your template so you don't leave out a row by accident or misplace a block, in the second last picture, this is apparent.
