From toon shading and line art to fake lighting techniques – this 5-hour guide covers it all.
If you're an aspiring Blender artist looking to stand out by expanding your portfolio and skillset with something unique and uncommon, check out Stylized Retro Anime Style Illustration, a comprehensive guide to retro-style shading in Blender, taught by Danish Mir, a well-known 3D Lo-Fi and Anime Artist.
Designed for beginners and intermediate users, this course will teach you how to mix 2D and 3D elements in your scenes and create stunning anime/vaporwave-style visuals similar to Danish's signature work. Along with in-depth lessons, you'll get access to all the .blend files used throughout the course, the artist's custom shaders and assets, and five project files from Danish's works.
The guide consists of eight pre-recorded lessons, totaling nearly five hours of content. It covers a wide range of topics, including the fundamentals of lighting and line art, stylized shading, toon shader development, creating fake lighting effects, using Grease Pencil, blending realistic materials with stylized shaders, and more. The only prerequisites are a basic understanding of shaders and Blender as a whole, as the entire workflow is conducted within this software.
