Free Cinema 4D Arnold Scene: City Pop Toon Shader (Casey Gu)
Original title: City Pop Art Recreated in 3D?! A Stylized Toon Shader | Cinema 4D & Arnold
Overview
This free Cinema 4D scene by Casey Gu recreates a City Pop illustration style in 3D with a stylized toon shader built in Arnold. The scene uses ramp-node toon shading, edge detection for outlines, displacement driven by C4D noise, a transparent window trick in Arnold's toon shader and stylized clouds on textured planes.
The project ships as a Google Drive zip ('City Pop Toon Shader_Cinema 4D & Arnold_Casey Gu.zip') linked via bit.ly in the video description; Arnold is required, and the building model by Tobias Pisarovic is a separate free download. It is a strong reference for retro toon looks in C4D and Arnold.
