This week I worked on a second set for the Minnow Avatars Generator requested by @wearecodex.
If you haven't seen my first proposal for these, you can check them out here
Details
Since I already explained the process the first time, I will not go into that much detail. I will say that I was feeling inspired by a Circus theme and its patterns, colors and shapes. That's why this set is even more quirky and odd-looking.
I started off with the same setup from before and created more parts out of my imagination.
The image below shows the first elements:
Then I went on to create the whole system for 3 minnows:
I started to bring out the previous parts to see how the first and second sets would work together:
I had to make sure all the parts fit together perfectly with the previous system, this took a lot of time and micro-adjustments, but I finally achieved it.
Benefits / Improvements
- This system brings even more variation to the current one, which can help increase user engagement.
- The new set works perfectly with the previous proposal and should work with other contributions.
- These three minnows add more expressions to the minnow, such as disgust, tiredness and frightened eyes, just to mention a few.
Tools
- Everything was done in vectors using Adobe Illustrator, saved with text in curves and for versions CS5 and above.

Sorry guys. My internet is super unstable and slow and made me post the same thing twice.
I am still figuring out how to delete one of these two posts.
If any of you knows how to do it, let me know.
