3. Find 5 images of your character on the internet. Copy and paste them
below. Describe why you chose your images. An example has been done
for you.
This is a good picture of what my villain, Dastardly Darryl, looks like. His hands are like claws. His eyes
are squinting so they appear mean and his brow is furrowed, making him look angry. He has a hump
on his back which makes him look really evil. I imagine he walks with small, scampering steps. He has
very high energy and a squeaky voice.
