I'd also like to point out that there are other outline methods which include doing some tricks with the cycles, EEVEE, BEER/Malt rendering. The main reason I recommend and prefer this method is because most every other software supports inverted Hull of some sort. So, you can get a pretty good idea of how your stuff is going to look in Unreal, or Unity, or wherever else you're exporting to - but when you start using post-rendering tricks, none of that can really export outside of Blender - So, keep that in mind when you are exploring other methods :)

This kind of videos are extremely useful when you already know the basics and are looking for specific things. Thanks a lot.

Also, make sure you turn Shadow Mode to "None" in the "Outline" material.

The fact that I've been using Blender for over 2 years and am still learning plenty of new stuff proves how amazing of a program it is.

Additional tip: if you want to add more of a sketchy look to the outline, you can paint different weights for vertices and input that into the Vertex Group. For example, this can prevent you from having a black outline around the whites of the eyes in side-view. It can also be used to vary the thickness, so you'd have a thicker line around, say, a bulging bicep or a rounded belly.
Main limitation is that your stroke shape would look like it broadens outward *from* the model, getting it to look like it broadens inward *towards* the model. To check the difference: see any tutorial on fills and strokes for My Little Pony vectoring. You can see around the legs that the stroke edge touches and covers part of the fill: the curve from the top point of a stroke goes inward, as opposed to flowing out of it. There's probably better examples, but MLP's fandom was pretty prolific in the day, and that example is the easiest to compare. Anyway, getting that look may require fiddling with the outline material colour, or making a separate shape of it in the same way you can model clothes. Remember, the outline material is a material like any other, it can take a texture in and of itself. If you're not doing it for a game, consider using different colours for the outline, it can make a huge difference. Allegedly, at least, haven't gotten to exploring that bit in full myself.

Anyway, if you want to go from 3D anime cook to chef, the vertex weights and texturing the outline are a good place to start.

THANK YOU! I have many times looked for a simple video covering line art materials and have never found one as simple and concise as yours.

I look forward seeing you explain how to control the lighting on character. Some Blender users have shown it but their explanation isn't clear and straight to the point like yours.

Waiting with bated breath for the topology tutorial, after taking a peek at the guilty gear models and trying to figure out just why their flow is so funky.

Thank you! You made it so much clearer than the already pretty good tutorial I was following!

... Oh no. Three years ago, I made a complicated freestyle system that suited me anyway. REALLY thanks for being able to re-render everything again. Good work. :-D
