Manga Style Self Portrait

THE SUMMATIVE ASSIGNMENT
Now that we have covered the various features of the face it is time to put it all together. You will be challenged to create a self portrait in Manga style artwork. By doing a self portrait you will have to rely on your own skills to create the "character" rather than just duplicating the work of someone else. What are the defining characteristics that make you, you? Your facial expressions? Your Hair? Your scar from crashing your bike when you were 8 years old?  You will need to capture your essence! Not sure who you are? Ask some one who is close to you how they see you
