Here's a first ASCII art attempt that my 14yr old daughter created. I
thought it was pretty good for the first try.
The Penguin from "Wallace and Gromit."

Very good first effort - it's inspired me to have a try at Feathers McGraw myself (complete with power drill and his neferious diguise....). __ ( )) (_)|_) (_) \ _ |___| // |oo | // /\ | // \/ | ___// | | /\ // | | / \' \ / \ / \__\ / __ \ / /_ / / / \ \ \ // \ / / \ \ \../| \ ,' / \ . `----\ \__/ / ,| | | \ / / / /|| | |__.--' \/_/ | / | \ / | | | \ `.__.' / \| \ / |.___.| | | | | | | | | snark^dec97 ,--' `.| `---. `-----''-----' Wallace's exclamation, "It's YOU!!", when Feathers removes the rubber glove is the best moment of the short for me. Only Gromit bungying the windows clean in _A Close Shave_ can match it for the entire series.
