@xhfloz depending on how deep you want to go on it: - paper texture - dilate/erode/blur to get the blobbiness of ink - use some simplex noise to do offsets if you want a bit of inaccuracy - colour separations/fake registration errors - with half tone effects for midtonesPermalink Look on archive.org

@xhfloz most of this is possible with SVG filters, but i think there's a fair few browser incompatibility rabbitholes to chase down. it's very possible to run stuff through a canvas/shader pass, too (maybe there's some stuff about image origins to check for, there)Permalink Look on archive.org
