So i finally decided to tackle one of these Pixelation avatars. I tried one a long time ago when the fad first started but my skills have improved a bit since then.

Here is a fast edit I made. The hair needed way more contrast, and needed more strands to make the thing less bland. The thing also needed some AA to make some angles around edges a bit smoother. This darkening to the hair fixed the problem with your eyebrows being darker than everything else.

Good luck!
