Real Pixels - Turn Any Image Texture Into A Vintage Screen!

by Polyfjord in Surfacing


A customizable subpixel pattern emulator for Cycles and Eevee

Five photorealistic presets

Based on subpixel geometry from real world panels.

Note for Blender 4.0 or later: The pixels will be more saturated with the Filmic view transform instead of AgX. 

Easy vintage look


Send anything back in time to the CRT era!

Highly customizable


Works seamlessly with both Cycles and Eevee.

Powerful screen characteristics and artifacts


Emulate vintage screen characteristics with features like pixel line, scanline, dead pixels and pixel flicker.

Asset browser support

All presets are linked to the same node group, so you can easily change the subpixel layout without losing the base texture.

Ideal for close-up renders


The real magic happens when you use your own animations as the base texture!
