Good morning fellow IndieDevs and GameDevs!
Good luck today and here's two hopefully inspiring images created with my full-screen outline shaders.

Trying out my full-screen edge detection outlines shader on a proper mech model* in between writing docs for the system. I'm really happy that I can now render things in this style, It almost feels like I'm still a real artist!

Working on a team color outline shader.
This scene uses a single scriptable render feature and one full-screen shader graph shader for the effect.
Making basic outlines is easy but depth testing them properly and making them intersect is a whole different story..

Hehe that’s great, mission already accomplished 😃
And now I know I’m on the right track...
Slapped some of my distance field outlines onto these larpers and I think it looks good, but what do you guys think??

Been testing my outline system for Unity URP in a low-poly city environment from the asset store.

Yes, I'm still working on my stupid little outline system!!!! 😠😠😠

hmm 🤔 yeah I guess it would.. will try something out soon

Today I created a new normals-and-depth-based-edge-detection-jump-flood-algorithm-distance-field-contour-outlines shader. After thinking about how to do it for a few weeks the method just kinda came to me in my sleep yesterday.

You can Blur it
or you can Dither
but if you want to make it Stick
then Make it A Sticker

Three more outline system process pics.
1st is with contour and distance field outlines and cross hatching. 2nd is a quick test using a sci-fi scene (needs work) and the third is a new full-screen edge detection shader using only view space normals.

It's nice to create some exaggerated full-screen outline effects after writing documentation pages for the system all day..

Two more images of the Unity Shader Graph full-screen edge detection shader I'm building.
Left image is with fully opaque background color and the right has the background color at 50% opacity showing the model's own materials underneath.

Thanks again! I'm already past the point of no return. Not going to stop digging down this rabbit hole 🐇
Hehe yeah it’s getting harder and harder to describe also because the chain of functions is just getting longer and longer.. But it’s basically a fancy full-screen edge detection shader and toon shader combined and everything is done in post-processing. So no toon materials needed 😃
It’s a combination of months of experimentation with this :)
Next thing i’m going to try is using an objects UV mask texture for the cross hatch texture mapping.
Thank you! I’m using depth, normals and color based sobel outlines combined with a reconstructed from view world space grid of textures, basically tri-planar mapped to the brightness of the camera color texture and modulated by the sobel magnitude. also.
Two more images of the full-screen edge detection outlines shader that I'm creating.
Can we get more mb's for gifs please???

Thanks! I really love this result too! The gif quality here doesn't really do it justice with all the thin lines but I hope it's visible in the other screen shots :) Will post some more images of this shader.

Another couple images of the same shader with a different model this time.
Because sue me I'm enthusiastic...

Adding full-screen cross-hatch effect shaders to my 3D outline system for Unity.
This shader combines depth, normals and color based edge detection outlines with cross hatch textures mapped to color intensity values.
