Using Pwtoon Shaders in DAZ Studio

Things you will need:


1. Genesis (really doesn’t matter if it’s the original or Genesis 8)
2. Pwtoon Shader from DAZ Studio
3. Crescent Shaders Presets for pwToon Shader (from ShareCG)
4. Soft Tint Shader Presets for pwToon by lmightyQUEST (from Renderosity)

I am merely posting it here as a basic example on how to get certain anime effects using different types of shaders that were
designed for pwToon shader. Hopefully it will be helpful to other people. This is not intended to be a complete tutorial on how to
use pwToon Shaders. I am not going to explain how to install the shaders or where to install the shaders once they have been
downloaded. I placed the shaders in the same folder as pwtoon since I like to keep things together.

Step 1. Create anime style using morphs

Step 2. Add Crescent pwToon Shader of your choice to the figure. For this example I chose from the Soft Shader-Medium Folder.

a. Select Genesis Figure (under Scene Tab)


b. Then under Surfaces (Color Tab) Select the Surfaces you select the parts/surfaces you want to add the shader to. I tend to select
all the skin surface areas and do not select the eyes, nails, eyelashes, and inner mouth. It is a matter of personal preference.
c. Now apply the Crescent toon shader of your choice

Step 3: Go into the Soft tint folder (these were created by lmightyQUEST)
In the Shadows folder choose the setting you desire. For this example I am choosing fade_100

Example 1: Example 2:
Render example Crescent toon shader Render of the same Crescent toon shader with Fade_100
without anything added. Notice that there is more depth to render.

Step 4. In the Lines folder we will be choosing what style of Outline.


a. For choice of Thickness I am choosing from the Thickness Folder and for this example I am choosing Outline_008
b. For Color Choice of the Outlie I am going into the Color_Bold Folder and choosing Red_04
Example 3. This is what the figure looks like with both shaders applied.

Step 5: A few finishing touches:

Add some coloring to the eyes and eyebrows, a little basic shade to create nipples if you so choose.

You can play with the shadow settings from the Shadow Folder to get some different effects. Below are a few examples
Finishing Product Example 1: Finishing Product Example 2:
This render is using the Soft_100 shader from the Shadow Folder This render I used a few different shaders to
create different effects.

These shaders work on Genesis 8 figures as well.


Below is an example Sakura 8 using some of the same techniques as above.
