David, 
  You may start by switc= hing the best switch off and using a combination of posterising, hue/saturat= ion and precomps. Scaling it down in a precomp and scaling it up in the= main comp should give you some chunkiness with draft mode. Then just use th= e posterization and color correction to tweak the color. 

That would be how I'd start, at least.
