NPR Comic Forge is made up of several shaders and filters, created to convert your 3D scenes into drawings, such as comics, manga and anime. The available tools will allow you to work in both black and white and color work, and allowing you to see the results in real time, thanks to EEVEE render engine.

Some comparisons with and without normal map:

MIURA SHADERS DEMO (BSRK 03 + BSRK 07):

In addition to all the variety of materials available, you can merge materials for new variations, connecting the output of one to the input of the other and seeing the result in real time. You can for example define the internal color gradient with a THAVMA material and put it in a HARD STROKE to use heavy and constant shading.

ARTISTIC DISTORT

A post-processing filter that distorts the render according to the configuration parameters passed. The results vary depending on your usage needs, serving to emulate everything from a slight distortion in the image, giving the impression of handmade lines, to the simulation of underwater scenarios.

PIXELATOR

Simple and easy to use, with just one configuration parameter, this post-production filter generates pixelated images, according to the strength determined by the user. You can use this filter to create stylized animations or even sprites for games.

NOISE IN SHADER

It is subdivided into three types, which, unlike the noise available in the VENTURA POST PROCESSING filter, are applied directly to the material instead of the entire render. This way you can only apply it to the desired locations. It also has a completely customizable version so you can produce the noise effect however you want.

WATERPAINT

It uses a base color or texture and applies a lightening and darkening effect, through layers of coloring, according to the chosen parameters. Each of the recolor layers can be configured individually.

FILL PATTERN

This filter adds fill hatches in a shader, on a layer above the inner coloring, if you want to add any imperfections, so the result doesn't look “too clean”. These hatches can be configured in different ways, depending on your needs.

VENTURA POST PROCESSING

It brings together a collection of several commonly used adjustment features to adapt NPR renders as needed, highlighting the integrated noise filter that can be applied to the entire scene at once and simplified background replacement.
