A friend was like "the halftone effect looks like an early 2000's textbook" and I was feeling inspired, so...

The post that originally sent me down this rabbithole was this absolutely sick piece by @curiah.city over on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/curiah.city/post/3msvnvvxr6k2i
(It's not halftone, but I was like "wait how do I replicate this", and then stumbled into halftone printing while trying to do so)

Also, in case anyone's wondering how to do this in Krita:
- Image > Convert image color space, select "CMYK"
- Image > Separate image
- Group all the split layers, and then move some of them a little bit to make the cool offset printing effect
- Add a filter layer to the group, select "halftone" (under "artistic"), set mode to "independent channels", and then proceed to fuss with the options for like an hour

I got into a super deep rabbit hole on halftone printing techniques and tried it out with this image, and I think it looks COOL AS HELL
