How to Make Oggy Dancing Hideout Art in Path of Exile

Oggy again, this time mid-dance with his signature belly swirl. Full-body cartoon poses show how the outline engine keeps arms, legs and tail separate.

The original and the in-game version

Drag the slider to compare the original image with the version rebuilt from Path of Exile decorations. Every piece on the right is a real decoration at its real in-game size, position and rotation.

Why Oggy Dancing works so well as hideout art

Cartoons are made of thick outlines and a handful of flat colours, which translate almost one to one into decorations. The outline becomes a continuous chain of dark pieces and each colour area becomes one decoration type.

This Oggy Dancing uses 745 decorations of 7 types, with Excavated Brick doing most of the work. That fits inside Path of Exile's 750-decoration hideout limit, so the complete artwork imports in one go.

Decorations used for Oggy Dancing

These are the exact decorations in this artwork, sorted by how many pieces each one contributes. The generator picks them by colour, texture and size, so large flat areas use big pieces and details use small ones.

How the colours were matched

Path of Exile decorations come in mostly earthy, stone and metal tones, so each colour in the Oggy Dancing image is matched to the closest decoration family while keeping light and dark areas in the right order. Here is how each colour of the original was translated:

Oggy Dancing in Path of Exile 2

Choose Path of Exile 2 in the generator and pick your PoE 2 hideout: the art is rebuilt from PoE 2 decorations automatically, with the same outline and colour matching.

Tips for the best Oggy Dancing

• Keep the default outline on: it is what makes cartoon characters instantly recognisable in game.
• Six to eight colours is the sweet spot for most cartoons.
• Front-facing poses read better from the hideout camera than side views.

Importing the .hideout file

Go to your hideout, open Edit Hideout, choose Import and select the downloaded file. Make sure you import into the same hideout type you chose on the website. Back up your current layout with Export first if you want to keep it.
