The Making of Adam (24x24 Pixel Punk) from Scratch / Zero Using Pixel Art Designs in the ASCII Text Format - 1-Bit Black & White Edition
Let's start with the (base) face - in a 1-bit black & white pixel edition:
require 'pixelart'
colors = {
'.' => 0, # transparent
'0' => 'ffffff', # color 0 - white
'1' => '000000', # color 1 - black
}
img = Image.parse( <<TXT, colors: colors )

Let's add a hair-do attribute. Note: Let's place all attributes in a 24x24 canvas (for easier image composition):
hair = Image.parse( <<TXT, colors: colors )

Let's put together Adam on transparent background:
punk = Image.new( 24, 24 ) # canvas (image) with transparent background color
punk.compose!( Image.read( "i/attributes/face.png" ))
punk.compose!( Image.read( "i/attributes/hair.png" ))
punk.compose!( Image.read( "i/attributes/lasereyes.png" ))
punk.save( "./i/adam.png" )
punk.zoom(4).save( "i/[email protected]")
punk.zoom(8).save( "i/[email protected]")Voila!

Bonus - Try some variants - flip (horizontally):
punk.flip.save( "./i/adam_flipped.png" ) ## flip horizontally
punk.flip.zoom(4).save( "i/[email protected]")
punk.flip.zoom(8).save( "i/[email protected]")Voila!

Or left is the new right:
punk.mirror.save( "./i/adam_left.png" )
punk.mirror.zoom(4).save( "i/[email protected]")
punk.mirror.zoom(8).save( "i/[email protected]")

That's it. Now create your own Adam (or Eve). Yes, you can.
