Would it be possible to achieve this in Babylon? Thank you!

Oh, thanks!

You could put together a shader to do this. Can get started with them here:

I thing it’s doable on any engine (kinda) with proper shaders. Babylon.js is heavily targeted for gaming development, so a bet that there is a ready to use solution. Three.js has a lot of modules made by community for different purposes tho.

Something like this?

This is kind of that effect, there are quite a few ways to do this.

Now the dithering on the gradients would be the hardest part to keep consistent.
