Using just a few paper cups, some pens, and a lot of imagination, we'll show you how to make an awesome mix-and-match character maker. Ours features The Incredible Hulk, Tracy Beaker, and of course, Dennis. 

All you need to do is follow the steps in the video or below...

Get some paper cups

5 or 6 will do the trick! 

Pencils, pens, and scissors

Get your pencil case out. You'll need a safe pair of scissors to cut the cups up. 

Cut the bottom of the cups off

Cut the small bit off the bottom of 2 cups

Stack them

Put the smaller cup bottoms upside down inside the other cups, so they stack up and spin around smoothly. Remember, the heads go on the top one, the bodies in the middle, and the legs on the bottom row. 

Plan your drawings

Mark the places where you'll draw the 3 separate parts of your characters out so they'll line up when you turn them. Remember to space them out evenly! 

Get drawing!

Draw the separate character parts out. You can copy your favourite characters, or draw your friends, or even use pictures you've cut out from magazines! 

Mix and match

Now, get mixing your own character creations. A Tracy Beaker Dennis with Hulk legs, anyone?
