tutorial for anyone having a hard time finding the textures, open Crafty Asset Pack blend file than go to file>external data>unpack resources than i think its the first option they will give you, a folder will be created where that blend file is called "textures" and that's it enjoy.
For Eevee users: in the Outline material, you don't need the second Mix Shader that uses the Geometry: Backfacing as the factor. You do have to go to the Material tab, Settings drop down at the bottom, and check Backface Culling, then set Blend Mode to Alpha Blend, and Shadow Mode to None.
That helped me so much, thank you! for me it was under "viewport display" then do what you said (and idk if it was checked at the beginning but uncheck "show backface" if you can suddenly look through your model)
3 mins in and i may have a tip for you. if you want to keep the positions of the voronoi and just affect the edges the "linear light" blend mode works quite well
Instead of using two Mix Shader nodes for the outline, you could simply take the Is Shadow Ray and Backfacing outputs and combine them in a Math node either set to Add or Maximum and use the result as factor for a single Mix Shader.
wow, i particularly like how you generate the outline using a second material and solidify modifier to shade the flipped normals. i've never seen anyone use a technique like that before. it's *really* clever.
Absolutely fantastic tutorial, thank you so much for making this! I've been looking for a tutorial like this for a long time. Very minor side note: It's pronounced "voro-NOY" not "voro-NEE"
I'm struggling with this too. Well, it hasn't made the WHOLE model black but I definitely have black outlines and the Base Color doesn't affect anything. Anybody find a solution? [EDIT] OK, I switched from EEVEE to Cycles and that helped. Then I messed with the black/white Color Ramp connected to the Principaled BSDF's Alpha slot. It's not black anymore but the material applied after Solidify is visible on top of my base mesh, meaning that while I have the outlines I also have a red Noise map projected on top of my object. I have Backface Culling turned on in both the primary and outline materials' Viewport Display > Settings and have selected Flip under the Normals section of the Solidify modifier. I dunno... this tutorial definitely didn't work for me.
I had the same problem as well, seems like I didn't realize that I am using the translucent BSDF instead of the transparent BSDF, so I changed it and it worked. Since sometimes when we try to search for transparent BSDF, we write "trans..." and directly press enter, and turns out we accidentally pressed the translucent one. Try to check yours. Hope that's the problem for you.
Hi, awesome video! I´ve got a cool result here, thanks for teaching it! I just couldn´t find those free png files, they aren´t included on the zip, but i could use the tips on the other videos you-ve linked and it wnt great as well. Thank You so Much, that painterly was fun!!
I thought the same at first, to get those pngs, link the asset browser to the blend file and import the 4k paint brush texture (it was pink ig) and then you will have the files imported in your model too. Hope this helps
Hi thanks for this interesting tutorial. What's your lighting setup here and where did you get that model? I'm trying to matchup what I'm seeing with what I'm getting and having trouble. Do you have this test scene as a download somewhere?
Love the tutorial! :D Is there a place where we can download this file so we can understand better the whole process? I´d love to have it. Thanks for this amazing tutorial!
This doesn't work for animations. When you start animating (even simple rotation), the normal map gets tangled up. The problem stems from the position socket in the voronoi texture. Does anyone know a fix or workaround?
@@dirtiestharry6551 Hey! Sorry i know its been a while but i noticed you baked the textures and I am having an issue. The baked results looks quite different to the shader. Did you find this too? I am baking the correctly way but maybe this shader setup needs something extra to work
I'm just starting out so do with this wat u will but I had the same issue with a bevel mod not working on a cylinder I turned into a hat. But when I added another cylinder the mod worked fine... so worst case u can likely restart and it'll work 🙃🙃 P.s. if u find a better work around lemme know
sometimes the skipping moments are confusing. im new to blender, like 10 days, and i have no idea what is happening, when you skip time. 2:27 for example
Very nice ! One limitation : doesn't work for flat surfaces. In my case for a cylinder, you only get variations along the rotation, and no variations along the height of the cylinder. Plus both ends of the cylinder. I think it's because the voronoi texture is based on the initial normal, which only changes along the rotation and not the height. Any thought how to have voronoi cell on flat surfaces, or on 1-dimensional curvature ?
If I have a character, with different materials, the body, the eye, ears, etc., and I want to add that painting effect, do I have to do it with each part of the material? Like the body, ears, etc., or does that effect apply to everything?
VERY NICE, I LIKE. Is there a way to make this work in realtime in Eevee? I notice that when you plug the normal map and voronoi texture into the mix, the result doesn't move with the light. Is there a way to put the normal map node after the mix to make it behave more realistically?
@@SouthernShotty No worries at all. When I playback my recorded voice I always find crutch words, maybe that's why I'm aware of it; keep up the great work 👍
I have absoloutly no idea why mine is not working, I am assuming the object's shape is an issue, but I can't figure out why. I'm using a pillow shaped object and its really not complicated, its medium topology with super simple smooth shapes. I used the mirror modifier but I applied it long before all of this and recaclc normals, apply all transforms and resmoothed, i am so confused why it breaks where the mirror sat and why the brush strokes aren't being applied and why i can't preview it like you do. Mine has no color when I preview it and the image textures are non existant. I rewatched three times and its identical setup to yours. I am using cycles, I am in rendered mode and in material preview mode, I have used nodes before a lot so I'm not a beginner either. I really think its some bug or I'm being stupid! I am using blender 4.2 if that has anything to do with it :'D
Is it possible to directly use a shader with a toon effect created in Blender within Unity, or do I need to recreate it entirely in Unity? For example, if I achieve a good look in Blender, can I convert it to a texture and expect it to look the same in Unity?
First of all thank you for making this, the materials look amazing! I have a problem with the outline material. It's going over all of my model, it's like the material offset on the solidify modifier isn't working. I am using Blender 4.1, Cycles, I'm in rendered display, and have checked many times that my materials are the same as his. I have the two materials where Outline is the second one and material offset on Solidify is set to 1, same as in the video. I've tried to change that number as well, but it changes nothing for me. If anyone has an idea to what is wrong I would love to know!
@@dragoncraft010 I ended up removing the material slot for the outline mat and assigning it again. I had remade it a few times, but it didn't occur to me at first that I should probably remove the whole thing. Not sure why, but it worked for me after doing that!
If I wanted to use my own brush textures, how do you create the normal map of the brush like you have done? I wanted to take some brushes I use in procreate.
There's websites like SmartNormal or NormalMapOnline that automate this process which isn't always as accurate as you'd want but they do a pretty good job
hello. I need some help. With primitives I can do this tutorial but when I modify the primitive the normals break and the effect is useless. How can I fix the normals after modifying the primitives? Thanks
@@SouthernShotty What is it labeled because I'm not seeing it from the blendermarket downloads. i see paint-(metal, scratched, grunge, model, brush, wood puppet)
Hello. I followed this tutorial and the result is perfect. But whenever I bake the diffuse/roughness/normal map. The baked result is very different. Has anyone else come across this problem?
great tutorial to follow 1on1 but for a newbie like me i started using blender mainly for this effect but i have no idea what each of these nodes do. I you could make a longer version with examples of each nodes and how they work with each other, I would love that. basically a beginner friendly tutorial. I would love to use these effects on robots or background stuff for my 2d animations but blender is so much to learn and stuff idk what it does
I don't know what's going on, but the moment I rotate my object I start seeing a weird flat-shaded effect on my mesh even though it is set to smooth shading. Has something to do with directly using the position data out of the voronoi node.

it took me months to figure out how to do this, and now everyone is doing tutorials. even the blender studios is doing it.
Ikr 😂 same here. must be the influence of arcane , spiderverse and all that
I remember using blender in middle school but holy shit has it upgraded so much. jeez, that's so fucking cool how well developed it got.
wow! i saw many tutorials on youtube how to make any materials but your tutorial and material is best!
Another great tutorial as always! 💪

how did u make that preview area on the right? mine doesnt change when I add nodes.

P.s. if u find a better work around lemme know
@찬-n5o found out wat it was. Gotta click "apply" in the drop-down list of the mod.
where can i find those png files with brushes. I dont see them...
reminds me of Slime Rancher, very cool effect!
i wonder how do you do it with a drawn texture
You rock!

At the start if the tutorial when i plug in the voronoi texture to the bsdf nothing on my model changes? No faceted look nothing any help here?
when i plug the voronoi into the texture coord it just becomes basic rectagular shaped and not the expected polyagonal look. help?
The way he says Voronoi stresses me out xD
I had a teacher once, (in the primordial sea of home computers) that used to say 'pixels' as 'pi-SHELLS'... haha
I know right? it's voronoi not veroni

to do this in unreal, is it easier to make this shader in blender and bake, then export, or just do the shader in unreal engine?
I'd just use unreal. Their node-based shader editor is miles ahead of blender's.
While you could do it in their material editor baking down everything that's done before the outline / displacement step would be more performant.
