You can always go into Second Life, there are a bunch of cartoon avatar shapes you can start with then customize..and then take high res screenshots to process in GIMP or other

The models in Second Life are almost certainly protected by copyright. You can't use them in your game any more than you could use Mario or Gordon Freeman - even if you customize the avatar and add a funny hat.
