<span style="color: #000000">The innovative Stylized Looks toolset allows RenderMan to deliver images beyond photorealism. Artists can render images that look like cartoons, illustrations, or watercolors. This flexible system allows the creation of unique looks and is limited only by imagination.</span>

### <span style="color: #4269b8">Highlights of Stylized Looks :</span>  
  


#### <span style="color: #3d90b3">Render in RenderMan .. Post Processed with Stylized Looks</span>  


#### <span style="color: #000000">Stylized Looks are a pixel-by-pixel post-process that are applied after your image is rendered (or during an IPR session), handled by 3 various Display Filters (PxrStylizedToon / PxrStylizedLines / PxrStylizedHatching)</span>  
  
<span style="color: #000000">Create your scenes using all the tools within the powerful RenderMan toolkit, including PxrSurface, Lama, and RenderMan lights .. then transform to Stylized Looks!</span>


#### <span style="color: #3d90b3">Mix Photorealistic & Stylized ... all in one render!</span>

Create incredible imagery by using RenderMan Lights to control the transition between photoreal and stylized.   
For instance, use the beam from a PxrRectLight to add hatching to a photoreal render.  Wherever the light strikes ... hatching is applied


#### <span style="color: #3d90b3">Create your own textures sets</span>  


  
Stylized Looks not only ships with a number of texture presets, but you also have the ability to create and use your own unique texture sets.  
Need a specific NPR to look?  No problem ... create your own hatching texture sets!


#### <span style="color: #3d90b3">Toon + Illustrative/Hatching Lighting + Lines</span>

#### **Toon**<span style="color: #000000">: Quantize any signal per light (diffuse, spec, refraction, …) with controllable steps</span>  
**Illustrative Hatching Lighting:**<span style="color: #000000"> Dynamically based on light or camera depth for illustrative light & shadow rendering</span>  
**Lines**<span style="color: #000000">: Linework with line thickness, line thickness by lighting, line thickness by custom per object, line color by albedo, line color by lighting, line color by custom per object settings</span>  
  


#### <span style="color: #3d90b3">Mix & Match Styles</span>

<span style="color: #000000">Mix and match unique and creative combinations of PxrStylizedToon / PxrStylizedLines / PxrStylizedHatching display filters</span>  
Try layering multiple PxrStylizedLines, each with a different thickness to create beautiful and artistic interior and exterior linework.


#### <span style="color: #3d90b3">Global and per-object control</span>  


<span style="color: #192e59">Attach the PxrStylizedControl to your PxrSurface & LamaSurface nodes to control either your entire scene or per-object.</span>  
<span style="color: #192e59">Control different line thicknesses/coloring for certain objects</span>


#### <span style="color: #3d90b3">Export AOVs for extra refinement</span>

<span style="color: #192e59">All AOVs associated with Stylized Looks can be exported for further creative refinement and layering outside of RenderMan</span>
