I've been idly considering sewing one, though...

The lix is a rodent, but does look even more like a human than a lemming does. The head is spherical, no large snout.
The hair is orange, the skin color is a normal human beige. If you open the sprites file (lix.I.png), you will find the sprites with dark yellow hair and white skin, but this is just for standing out more against everything else in the sprites file. They get recolored (using lixrecol.I.png) when the game loads.
The shirt doesn't have two colors, but is just one shade of red. The two shades are used throughout the sprites file mainly to show which arm is in front.
The hair is long enough to give fun possibilities for sprite animation, to underline body and head movements. Long, voluminous hair is important. When not sure on how long the hair should be, make it longer.
The feet are a little large in proportion to everything, as is the head, but people are used to larger heads for cartoon characters.
