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

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

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)
