PatternGrid Minecraft Pixel Art
PatternGrid Minecraft Pixel Art is a free browser tool that converts an image into a Minecraft pixel-art build plan. It matches image pixels to solid blocks and produces a block-by-block layout with totals for required materials. The tool supports wall pixel art and map art, accepting JPG, PNG, WebP, and HEIC files. It describes 128×128 as the size of one in-game map, while 64×64 and 32×32 are practical wall-build sizes. The palette covers common full blocks such as concrete, wool, terracotta, planks, and selected natural and mineral blocks. Biome-tinted blocks, including grass, leaves, and vines, are excluded because their rendered colors change by biome. Plans provide exact block IDs and counts in stacks of 64. Conversion runs locally in a browser Web Worker; images are not uploaded and the application has no upload endpoint. The palette applies to both Java and Bedrock editions for included blocks.
