Blocked vs Overprint

Create a mosaic out of toy blocks or tiles. Create a gift of a personalized work of art. Blocked generates mosaics using images from the Photo Library or from whatever you dream up and draw. Blocked allows for fine tuning of mosaics: filter the source source image, change the block size, select particular color groups, and omit colors from a mosaic. Commonly found color collections of bricks that can be purchased online are available by default. Generate a brick order list to automate online ordering of mosaic pieces on the lego.com website. Additional colors from photos can be added and grouped. Mosaics can be saved locally or shared with the public.

Overprint turns a photo into a screen-printed poster, the way a real print shop would pull it: separated by tone, screened into halftone dots, and laid down one spot ink at a time. This isn't a filter. Every layer is a real screen. Drag the squeegee and the ink develops across the sheet, heavy where you pull slow, thin where you pull fast, so no two pulls are the same. THE PRESS - Import any photo and Overprint auto-levels it onto the ink, so bright subjects read instead of washing out to bare paper. - Real halftone screening with per-ink angles, so the inks interleave instead of muddying, exactly like a physical press. - Overprint two inks and the overlap multiplies into a third color, the effect the app is named for. - Set text in heavy poster type and place it anywhere on the sheet. - Warm paper stocks with real tooth, from bright white to midnight. PULL BY HAND - Grab the squeegee and pull. Speed and dwell become ink body and gradient. - Split-fountain and gradient pulls roll one ink into another across the sheet. - Tune each ink's body, screen angle, and registration.
