Thank you for this! This will come in handy for everyone here!

I personally quite fond of cell-shading nowadays since it's easier and faster, so this is a great reference.

Thanks for the tutorial, I've been wanting to achieve a cel-shaded look very similar to yours, and the steps shown in the video are great!

Here's a quick test I've made to try it out, it's really effective!

Once again, thanks, and keep up the good work!
