Try to be creative with your image. This may require using a new object. Try using one of the additional models on the assignments page, finding a free model on the internet (obj format) or creating your own (try blender or google sketchup and an obj plugin to save).
You will get a chance to talk about your image to the class in the final lecture. This presentation is optional.
You do not need to get approval for what you plan to do. But you are always welcome to ask. Remember you must do something substantial enough that you can write about it and have an interesting image.
