Come up with new culture specific style for the avatar.

Prerequisite:

Install Adobe Photoshop or FireAlpaca.

Steps:

  • Take a look at the existing Powerup avatar to get a feel for the style. Your sketch doesn't need to match the existing avatar's style exactly--use it as inspiration!
  • Design a new style for the avatar which is originally not there--you can do this on paper or sketch it digitally in black and white. Check out a sample sketch here.
    • Create two new outfits unique to some culture, like some Indian attire, or a Japanese Kimono, it could be anything that you think would make the avatar more culturally diverse
  • Sketch the designs on paper
  • Create digitally colored images in Adobe Photoshop or FireAlpaca or Inkscape or any other graphics software you're comfortable with to create rastor or vector colored digital image.
  • Save the colored image as .png
