Creating the Sibling's avatar needs to lean towards fun.
Using Flash Face give them a sinister edge - a bit sinister.
Trying to find a process that 'generates' fun faces is seemingly hard to track down.
They have to get over the uncanny valley and be easy to (mass) produce - automated would be perfect.
A few rules:
It has to be a face not an graphic icon.
- they don't seem real.
Manga'isation
- as per graphic icon
Has to be unique.
- per personality
Has to be easy to make
- though spending hours working on your avatar is not out of the question.
Using CC licences photos of faces? Not Sure.
Some Links
Autoface generator using photos. Good but doesn't scale to 1000s well.
Monoface
Cute Manga figures. Too Graphical.
RasterBoy
Criminals...mostly. Black and white photo fit. Use with care,
FlashFace
Starburst with vectors graphics.
Tutorial and samples
iPhone 'shake' generator.
Nice. Haven't tried it though.
