Bell Knight

A personal project I've been working on. My goal was to push my knowledge on toon shaded assets and achieve a very 2D look. I built out a custom toon shader using some PBR concepts and custom stylized features.
The shader has line work that reacts to light/shadows and an animated noise overlay to break up the 3D feel when animating. It also has a custom shadow color texture to allow for more control over the look while still taking into account the ambient lighting of the scene.

In addition, I built out a custom edge detection post process for an extra layer of outlines that compares normals, depth, and a custom vert color render pass to add a final pass of outline and interior line details.

Hope you all like it!
