Even though photorealistic rendering is very popular in modern computer graphics, non-photorealistic visual styles are also popular.
Especially since the inclusion of the Freestyle render engine with Blender 2.67 and onward. Commonly referred to as ?NPR?, this style of rendering can be generalized as ?cartoony?. As you can imagine this is useful for visual styles like anime, commercials, architectural visualization, and motion graphics like the ending credits of ?Tears of Steel?.
Freestyle?s purpose is to detect geometric edges and draw stylistic strokes over them. Artistically, we can think of this as ?outlining? our objects. And when these outlines are combined with toon-style shading, it?s very possible to achieve hand-drawn-like treatments of our 3D scenes. We can also render Freestyle lines by themselves to achieve a look like technical-drawings.
Warning: Be sure to scan all the downloaded files with your Antivirus and if there is an executable or installer file, make sure to have your antivirus active and open in the background while installing or running the app. Some of the materials posted here are downloaded from CGPeers, So they could potentially have something injected in them.
We always ask bloggers to scan all the files before publishing the posts, but sometimes it's hard to detect all these things, so if you found anything suspicious (Not false positive, Generic, Patcher, Riskware and Heuristic results, most patches could get false flags like that by some Antivirus companies.) be sure to post comments with the file name and a VirusTotal report result link or the file MD5 Hash (higher than 30% overall positive result). Thank you.
