What makes it Kawaii

Chibi proportions

A big round head and a tiny body, the classic super-deformed look.

Sparkly eyes

Oversized glossy eyes with bright highlights do most of the talking.

Pastel pixel art

Soft candy colours on a crisp pixel grid, cute at any size.

Pets welcome

Dogs, cats and bunnies come out especially well.

How to make one

  1. Pick Kawaii. The button on this page opens minipic.me with Kawaii already chosen.
  2. Add a selfie or a sentence. One face in good light, looking at the camera, works best. Or describe anyone (or anything) in a few words.
  3. Keep it. Download PNG or WebP from 64 to 1024 pixels, with the background kept or cut out to transparent, or tweak it ("add a red scarf").

Great for

  • Discord, Twitch and TikTok profile pictures
  • Matching couple and best-friend avatars
  • Pet portraits
  • Stickers and emoji for your server
  • VTuber-style placeholders

Questions

Can I make matching avatars for two people?

Yes. Draw each person separately in Kawaii with the same backdrop colour, and they will look like a matching pair.

Does it work for pets?

Very well. Upload a clear photo of your pet, or describe them ("fluffy white bunny with one floppy ear").

Is it free?

Your first two avatars are free, no card needed. After that, your first pack is $5 for 12 avatars, then packs start at $9 for 20, and credits never expire.

Do you keep my photo?

A photo you add to draw once is used for that drawing and not kept. Photos you save in People are kept privately until you delete them or your account.
