There is a basic python script included, named 'cartoon' it does create a black line around objects but the textures are not modified though... you can edit the python script and see how it is done... I'm not aware of more powerful scripts for the moment and for sure it would be interesting especially for animation... You can try your hand at scripting ;)) It won't be long before someone creates such a script I hope

There ya go i did just a quicky to show what it looks like when you want the cartoon image make sure that in the render settings the g-buffer is activated by ticking the box now when you run the cartoon script it will render and whn done it will add the cartoon lines hope it helps seeklight

You just select menu/ Python/run Pyton Script... you'll get a file browser letting you choose the script... after running the script, render your picture!

You'll probably have to make your own textures, flat colours with 100% luminosity or something (whatever the Vue equivalent is) and light everything really flat (i.e. from behind the camera.)
