What is NPR rendering?

Today I check about the NPR rendering. Its full name is Non-Photorealistic Rendering
It is a very helpful function, it allow us to make a 3D. And we could convert it into to 2D graphics or 2D-style 3D game. With this function, we might no need to draw the 2D graphics every time while we want new pose, facial expression, angle and others.

In order to master the NPR function in 3D maxs, we have to know the space of the object very well. Although this function is very convenience, but it acquire a lot of knowledge in making it, have to make sure and check there is not problem in all angle, or else the picture will become very strange!


This function could reduce the cost in making 2D animation, but it will not very dynamic as the traditional 2D animation.


The picture above are the graphics made by 3Ds maxs with the rendering of NPR function. I really cannot notice and recognize these picture are originaly made by 3D.

NPR rendering frequently used in making Japan style game. It look like a 2D, but it IS 3D model. Therefore game developer could save their cost while making 2D game.

Conclusion, I feel the mighty of the 3D!
