Questions people usually have before they start

StudCanvas takes a photo and turns it into a brick mosaic plan you can actually work with. You can adjust the crop, tune the colors, review the parts, and only move forward once the result feels right.

Right now the image is handled in the browser and the project state is kept temporarily in session storage so the editor and manual page can work without a backend upload flow.

Yes. You are not stuck with the first result. You can repaint single cells, fill areas, pick colors from the layout, and shift palette assignments until it looks the way you want.

Yes. You can zoom and reposition the image while keeping the proportions fixed, so you can change the framing without warping the original photo.

Yes. You get a parts-oriented summary and a color-by-color breakdown, which makes it much easier to judge whether the build is realistic before you start sorting pieces.

Yes. The manual page prepares a PDF export with the key project specs, part information, segment overview, and the build flow you would use later during assembly.

Yes. The current upload limit is 20 MB. Bigger files get blocked before upload so the browser flow stays stable.

StudCanvas works best on desktop. On smaller iPads, the current editor behaves more reliably in portrait mode than in landscape.

Yes. StudCanvas is currently free to use.

It works especially well for portraits, pet photos, gifts, wall art ideas, and bigger mosaic plans where you want to check the look and the build logic before committing to the full project.
