On the internet it is possible to create a face, a face or a face from scratch, without starting from a photograph and inveting the liniments of a face as if you were drawing an identikit.
The topic is very close to that of avatars, that is, of the drawn figures used to represent the presence on websites.
We have seen several online tools to create avatars in the article "Create custom avatars without the use of photos, for sites, blogs, Facebook."
The difference between those online applications and these two that we present in this article is that the avatar is a nice but unrealistic design while an identikit is the construction of a face that resembles that of real people.
In other sites we had created faces in 3D starting from our own photographs, this time you can build from scratch, with simplicity and speed.
1) PimpTheFace.com (unfortunately no longer exists) is really a fun and well-made tool with which to create faces from scratch, in color, like real identikits of people's faces.
It is a matter of choosing, for each part of the face, between different preset images and thus creating a kind of collage.
For example, the shape of the head, different haircuts, different eye shapes, different noses and so on.
The title of the application, Unusual Suspect, wants to be a game where you have to recognize the various faces of celebrities, created by registered users.
In practice it can be fun to create a realistic reconstruction of yourself or a friend, creating a caricature (also read about online tools to create caricatures from a photo) or creating a faithful digital reproduction which, if it is good, can also be very realistic .
It is not possible to save the created image but you can use the stamp key or one of the tools for the print screen to capture the created face.
The online editor is very clear and simple, on the right side there are the essential facial elements: nose, mouth, head, hair, eyelashes, ears etc. etc. which must be dragged to the left to create the collage.
Once the identikit has been created, you can store it in your account and download it to your computer.
2) Flash Face is used to create an avatar that is very reminiscent of the identikit drawing, thus creating a face drawing guided by the tools made available.
You can decide the details of the face such as hair, nose, mouth, all in a detailed and realistic way.
Unlike the previous one, Flash Face is more like a "policeman" and more professional but less graphically beautiful because the face is not well colored and it is as if it were drawn in pencil or pen.
3) Portrait Illustration Maker allows you to create a different style design than the similar sites mentioned above and can give a touch of originality to your avatar used in chat.
As the title says it is a web application to create face portraits, choosing all the elements that make up a face.
With each change you can see the preview and the drawing can be saved using the right mouse button, in the image formats gif, png, jpg.
4) FaceYourManga and Weeworld which are mainly used to make a comic avatar, are covered in another article.
5) Avachara is another comic site where you can create faces by combining the various elements of the face, thus choosing the shape of the head, hair, eyes and thus creating a person's identikit.
On another article, the best web photo editing applications to draw online and apply artistic effects to photos and other online tools to draw with a brush or pencil using a pc.
