Here is my True Blood inspired vampire named Bill. I started out playing with making overlapping circles, which now make up Bill's "nose." I wanted to experiment with moving turtles to other parts of the screen without leaving a trace. So I started to make circles in the corners of the screen and then decided to try to make a happy vampire. I found information on controlling the speed of the turtle for drawing the nose here. I also wanted to hide my turtles after completing the drawing and made use of a fellow classmate (Mandy) who had already discovered the code to hide a turtle.
