Moku Hanga

Regardless of whether you are a professional photographer or an amateur who adores taking pictures, it is likely that you are always looking for new ways to bring a breath of fresh air into your work or hobby.

Moku Hanga is a user-friendly utility that allows you to apply a wood-block print effect to your images while avoiding the time-consuming carving process.

The application comes with a stylish interface and incorporates a large window that displays the photo you are manipulating as well as the modifications you make.

The main window displays various preview and customization options. You can select a preset from the panel in the lower section, which can be a Multi-color or a Multi-block combination.

You can process JPEG, PNG and TIFF images only and it could be useful if the app allowed you to work with more file formats.

You can enhance your photos even further from the dedicated panel for the aforementioned presents. In fact, you can change colors' values, such as strength, vibrancy or outline smoothing and width for any of the presents you select.

You can switch between 5 color palettes for the presets, choose an appropriate edge and alter the value of the paper tint effect. If you are feeling uninspired, you can take advantage of the app's randomize style function.

Despite the wide variety of options, it is worth noting that most of these features can only help you apply and improve the wood-block print effect. Moreover, Moku Hanga does not allow you to create your very own preset.

The photo editor runs seamlessly, especially since you are able to view any modifications made in a matter of seconds.

You can drag and drop an image onto the dedicated window, select an interested present and you are ready to go. The app features allows you to redo and undo multiple times, so you have nothing to worry about if you make a mistake or change your mind.

The app enables you to transform any average picture into a wood-block print masterpiece. If you always found this country's culture fascinating, then Moku Hanga enables you to bring a bit of Japan into your life.
