Pixel Grid Workflow

How to make a Tomodachi Life pixel grid

Upload an image, choose a grid size, match the Game-compatible 84 color palette, clean the result with editor tools, then export a numbered pattern you can copy by hand in Palette House.

How to Use It

  1. Start with a simple image. Crop around the subject so the grid uses cells for the important shape.
  2. Pick a practical grid size. Use 32x32 for most designs and 48x48 when the image needs more detail.
  3. Use numbered export. Download the numbered pattern when you want a paint-by-number reference.
