Yet another Toon/sketch shader

ZBrush Artworks
#1

Hi all! after doing a bit of studying of other peoples shaders, and tweaking a few of my own here is what I have come up with…:

and here is the material:
Polaris-Ink.zip

Special thanks to Fouad B. and Aurick for the above shader…I used a method they described a long time ago to get above shader.

And here is another one for color models to get a comic book like appearance, you need to use enclosed lighting to make it look proper :

Toon-cavity-1.zip

this shader I made myself tweaking materials…

ALL of the above shaders need to be Rendered to see them… they look terrable untill you render them!

so be sure to press the “Best render” Button in the material browser…

Both materails exploit the Cavity shader to give the detail outlines… tweak cavity settings for best results :slight_smile: remeber to best render to see your tweak :slight_smile:

I realy enjoy the first toon shader the best, it gives a bit of a shadeing effect to the inside of the models :slight_smile: :+1:

PLease feel free to post your tweaks here or images you make with them :slight_smile: hopefuly we get some nice toon shaders for Zbrush from experement :slight_smile:

Have a good one everybody :slight_smile:

Thnx Pol…these look great…and I shall give your generous postings a whirl…might be what I was looking for in reference to that comic look. How goes the gaming stuff at the moment?

Indeed,

I think it was a request of your’s that got me working on the cavity toon shader a long time ago…

Thanks for comment Ron :slight_smile: :+1:

I have just finaly gotten happy with the results… Here is an example of the cavity toon shader…

as you can see mine makes thinner lines and allows for colors… still lacking in something I cant quite put my finger on…

think it needs a secondary color in shadows to make more of the ink cell shadeing look…

Please feel to tweak and experament, and add to this thread everyone…
