Visual Journal Assignment #11 (Term 1)

Due: Monday, November 24th

  A Munny is a figure made out of vinyl (a plastic material) with movable joints. The figures are blank and the owner can decorate them using pens, pencils, markers, paint, and other supplies.

For this visual journal assignment, you will be designing your own Munny. You will use the template given to you by Mrs. Walker to show the front, back and side views of your Munny.

How you customize your Munny is up to you. Perhaps you cover your Munny in graffiti style lettering, or fill your Munny with intricate patterns and designs. Maybe you create a new character.

For your paragraph (3-5 sentences) please describe to me how you came with your Munny design.  What inspired you?
