Yes, many avatars are different in terms of style, but I see the same thing everywhere. Light skin. Human. Expensive. Do you want to try something new?
Choose a few and submit your creation with the title of the corresponding challenge. This is strictly for fun - there are no cash rewards, only compliments.
The challenges!
1. Skin Challenge: Use a human skin tone that is not F, A, or C.
