How to Make Oggy Grinning Hideout Art in Path of Exile

Original
In gameOggy from Oggy and the Cockroaches is all about that huge grin and bright blue fur. Big shapes and a thick outline make him one of the clearest cartoon conversions in the gallery.
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 Grinning 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 Grinning uses 704 decorations of 7 types, with Fresh Giblets 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 Grinning
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.
| Decoration | Pieces | Share | Used for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fresh Giblets | 207 | Colour area | |
| Dead Oriath Soldier Pieces | 199 | Outline and line art | |
| Cathedral Tiles | 185 | Colour area | |
| Ancient Books | 53 | Details and edges | |
| Arcane Astronomy Tool | 52 | Details and edges | |
| Vaal Curtain | 7 | Details and edges | |
| Faridun Ropes | 1 | Details and edges |
The game skips decorations you have not unlocked when you import a hideout file. Unlock the ones above from your masters or the store before importing to get the complete Oggy Grinning. This artwork needs no shop decorations.
How the colours were matched
Path of Exile decorations come in mostly earthy, stone and metal tones, so each colour in the Oggy Grinning 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 Grinning in Path of Exile 2
The same image in Path of Exile 2 uses 734 decorations of 6 types (+30 compared with PoE 1). PoE 2 has its own decoration set, so the generator only uses pieces that exist in PoE 2, led by Excavated Brick.
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 Grinning
- 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.
