🐶 Drawing a 2D Dog Face 🐶

This project provides an example of drawing a 2D dog face using Turtle graphics in Python. You will learn how to create and customize a dog face and add your own functions to the dog_template.py file.

📚 Understanding the Code 📚

The project consists of two files:

dog_template.py: This file contains basic functions for drawing shapes and moving the turtle. You can use these functions to create more complex drawings.
main.py: This file contains a function called draw_dog_face() that uses the functions from dog_template.py to draw a simple 2D dog face. You can modify the parameters of these functions to create your own custom dog face.

TODO's

Here are your tasks as the tech lead of digital dogs!

🎯 Centering the Dog Face 🎯

To center the dog face on the screen, follow these steps:

Open the main.py file.
Find the draw_dog_face() function.
Modify the move_turtle() function calls with the appropriate coordinates to center the face.

🐾 Drawing Whiskers 🐾

To add whiskers to your dog face drawing, you can create a new function in the dog_template.py file. Here are some tips to help you get started:

Define a new function called draw_whiskers(). This function will draw the whiskers on the dog's face.
Inside the draw_whiskers() function, use the move_turtle() function to position the turtle at the starting point of the first whisker.
Set the turtle's pen color and width using turtle.pencolor() and turtle.pensize() functions. For example, you can use a black color and a smaller pen size to draw thin whiskers.
Use a combination of turtle.forward(), turtle.left(), and turtle.right() functions to draw each whisker.
Repeat steps 2-4 for the remaining whiskers.
Import the draw_whiskers() function in the main.py file.
Call the draw_whiskers() function within the draw_dog_face() function or create a new function to combine your drawings.

Hint to get started

Here's an imperfect example of how you can create a draw_whiskers() function:

def draw_whiskers():
    # Set the pen color and width
    turtle.pencolor("black")
    turtle.pensize(1)

    # Draw the first whisker
    move_turtle(-35, -20)
    turtle.right(20)
    turtle.forward(30)

    # Draw the second whisker
    move_turtle(-35, -25)
    turtle.right(20)
    turtle.forward(30)

    # Draw the third whisker
    move_turtle(-35, -30)
    turtle.right(20)
    turtle.forward(30)

    # Reset the turtle heading
    turtle.setheading(0)

🚀 Have Fun and Be Creative! 🚀

After all, that's what a dog would do. Plus, it's time for you to explore and have fun creating your own unique dog face designs! Remember, you can always add more functions to the dog_template.py file and create more complex drawings. Don't be afraid to experiment, fail, and learn 🌟

Here are a few more ideas to extend your dog face drawing project:

Animate the Dog: Use the turtle library to animate the dog face by adding movement or changing expressions. For example, you can make the dog blink its eyes or wag its tail.
Create a Full Dog Image: Expand the drawing to include the dog's body, legs, and tail. You can create additional functions in the dog_template.py file to draw these elements and modify the draw_dog_face() function to incorporate them.
Design Different Dog Breeds: Customize your dog face to resemble specific dog breeds. Research different dog breeds and modify the shapes, colors, and features of your dog face to reflect their characteristics.
Build a Dog Face Generator: Create a program that randomly generates different dog face designs. You can use functions with randomized parameters to generate variations in size, shape, and color of the dog's face components.

Feel free to explore these extensions or come up with your own creative ideas to make your dog face drawings even more exciting and unique!
