Well one of the reasons I like olivier's toon shaders is that I have semidieu's free version of shaderworks that is designed to apply olivier's toon shaders to the whole scene all in one hit so that really speeds things up. I think postwork in phtoshop can look quite good and i often use it on top of the tooning or for tooning untooned background elements, but I don't reckon it is all that good for the whole comic. On the other hand it is quick, and it is better to have made your comic then never getting it done because the software isn't really up to doing perfectly what you envisage. Adam wright has some nifty photoshop tooning actions, and I think it was him that came up with the suggestion to blur the background layer in photoshop and toon the foreground things. Love esther

MY ONLINE COMIC IS NOW LIVE

I aim to update it about once a month.  Oh, and it's free!
