ImageMagick falls short here. You can convert between the different pixel formats, and you can convert a vector file to a bitmap type, but it doesn’t convert pixels to vectors. Inkscape can convert pixmap to vectors. There’s also an online tool called Vector Magic.

Check out the images from what the F-35 pilot sees when he’s wearing his new headgear. Assuming the pictures given to the public are anything like what the real pilots see, the view from the controls of a Nintendo Entertainment System and the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter are about the same quality.

Take a quick look on ebay and you’ll find plenty of results for Ghost’s balaclava. One of them even includes a cheesy hooded jacket and knee pads for a ridiculous price, but I see nothing that even comes close to the detail and quality of KChanko’s gear.

Using an image you want the mosaic to look like overall, and at least one tile library directory, create the mosaic. If the image doesn’t look like the original vangogh you based it on, try adding scale so it can use more images or shrink the tiles.

The easiest way to crop a border from an image is to rotate the image as you chop. It’s pretty much the same way you would cut a border from a piece of paper using a pair of scissors unless you were ambidextrous and even then wouldn’t it be faster to just rotate the picture rather than changing scissor hands.
