Create unique styles thanks to Non-Photorealistic rendering.

With Stylized Looks, you can non-destructively control outlines, create sketch patterns, and develop a huge range of unique looks, including Anime, by using the same familiar toolset.

Some unique highlights of Stylized Looks include :

Toon + Illustrative/Hatching Lighting + Lines

Toon: Quantize any signal per light (diffuse, spec, refraction, …) with controllable steps
Illustrative Hatching Lighting: Dynamically based on light or camera depth for illustrative light & shadow rendering
Lines: Linework with line thickness, line thickness by lighting, line thickness by custom per object, line color by albedo, line color by lighting, line color by custom per object settings

Daisy chain each node, mix and match all types

Mix and match unique and creative combinations of Toon, Hatching & Linework
Layer multiple Line filters to create beautiful and artistic lines.  

Mix Photorealistic & Stylized ... all in one render!

Create incredible imagery by using RenderMan Lights to mix the transition between photoreal and stylized. 
For instance, use the beam from a spotlight to add hatching to a photoreal render.
