Create a textured block image from a photograph. Start with shaded cells, compare other styles, and save the result as a PNG without signup.
Waiting for a source image
The same cat in Classic pixel art. Compare the blocks and palette.
Choose a photo with broad surfaces and an outline that survives large blocks.
Try the shaded Isometric preset and compare it with Classic at the same settings.
Adjust size if the texture overwhelms the subject, then apply and download the PNG.
No. The shaded blocks are drawn into a flat image. Their appearance does not create geometry, depth, or a scene that can be viewed from another angle.
Yes. Select Classic, Rounded, or Grid, apply again, and download another version. Keep size and colors fixed initially for a useful style comparison.
The shaded style gives each block a darker lower portion, adding a repeated surface treatment across the photo. It can make a still life or architectural photograph feel more constructed. The arrangement still comes from your source, so choose an image whose balance and perspective already suit the project.
Large blocks create a clear texture in a small thumbnail but can obscure facial details. Compare the full image with a smaller view before deciding. This is a raster effect, not a voxel model: there are no editable cubes, depth measurements, camera controls, or three-dimensional exports behind the preview.
The download is a flat PNG. Photos are processed at up to 2200 pixels on the longest edge, then rounded down to complete blocks. Pixel size controls each block, not a target canvas such as 32×32. Keep your original for later edits.
