Free Cinema 4D Redshift Scene: 2.5D Gradient Toon Shading (Casey Gu)
Original title: 2.5D Gradient Shading | Cinema 4D & Redshift
Overview
This free Cinema 4D scene by Casey Gu demonstrates 2.5D gradient shading, a toon and NPR-style look created with Redshift using lighting alone. A key light, colored rim lights and additional color lights build the gradient shading directly in the render, with no post-processing, and the tutorial finishes with a more complex example scene.
The project file is a free Google Drive download reached through a bit.ly link in the video description. It is a clear study of how lighting choices shape a stylized 2.5D look in C4D and Redshift.
