🎨 [Free Lesson] Easy Toon Shader in Blender



Hey Reader,

Zach here,

Today, I have a free lesson for you, from our Magic Storybook course for Blender, which just received a huge update.

In this lesson, you will learn how to set up a simple but effective Toon Shader (Cel Shader), that works in EEVEE.

This shader can give any 3D object that 2D illustrated look.

In this lesson, you will learn how to:

  • Set up the Toon Shader using Shader Nodes
  • Use lights to adjust the look of the shader
  • Add procedural details
  • Generate 2D outlines using modifier

To follow along, you can download the project files, which are located under the video (click the link below).

If you are interested in learning even more about giving your 3D scenes a painterly look using Blender and Grease Pencil, now is the best time to jump into our Magic Storybook course.

We recently added 5 new chapters with 60 fresh lessons, covering a wide range of 2D/3D workflows and how to create a full Alchemy Lab scene from scratch.

Check out the new trailer, that covers all course info in detail.
