Since I am not a talented illustrator (I prefer painting), I decided to use this program to create what I think Pluto would look like. It's called Astro-Venture and it allows you enter specifics about your planet (though there wasn't an option for dwarf planet) and then it creates an image for you. I entered the distance away from the sun, whether or not it would have active volcanoes and if there would be plate tectonics and this is what I ended up with. It is a little different than what I imagined, but relatively close... I have read that Pluto may be more brown in color and have some lighter spots but the overall look seems about right.
