How to create stylized noisy shadows

[elpatho]

Hi, I was wondering if its possible to create such effect in Blender through nodes or materials:

I want to make stylized shadows and have great control over it. I saw it in some 3D stuff around internet so it should be possible but I cant find any tutorials for it.

Hi. I just found out this: https://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?PHPSESSID=gefqvt9ff14ck2dq7461ld2d33&topic=40832.msg1363742#msg1363742 We´ve seen some pretty amazing tutorials on CG Cookie on how to do stylized pattern shaders. But this approach about fixing the pattern to the camera grabbed my attention. How could we translate this into Blender shading network? (Mapping with a “view at” camera?) Thanks.

Queue the Stranger Things music, we’re going retro. Continuing from this discussion, the addition of the Shader to RGB node got me interested in the effect again. This node is awesome! I think we are going to see all kinds of cool tricks and hacks thanks to this little fella. This is more of a proof of concept than anything. You can easily generate dithering in post (photo editor, or compositing), but it’s still fun to play around with in real time, and it gives me an excuse to tool around wit…

Hi. I think I found a solution with the Shader to RGB node. It’s not perfect and at the moment it works only in Eevee. I’m on a big project right now so I don’t have time to poke around and find out why.

I’m sure it would be feasible to control the highlights as well. Isolate the highlights with a color ramp and using a glossy shader instead of a diffuse as a base, you could probably mix the two together.

But here you go:
