I've been working a lot on trying to implement 3D into a more cartoony AI workflow - not about to to let 25 years of frustration and a giant 3D content library go to waste - and this morning I had a bit of success. Nothing too special here, but this was generated using a DAZ Studio render as reference with no postwork except some bloom and the eye highlights on the girl. It stayed very close to the original render (and improved upon the hair), and gave a result that wouldn't be too difficult to postwork further to improve hands, expressions, or add other details. We're never going to get a *true* toon renderer, so I figure I might as well try to get the next best thing. Hopefully this can be a decent step towards making my making toon or anime-style Fae and Flaeme and female fighting art that you'll enjoy (plus some cute stuff thrown in from time to time).

Original scene rendered in DAZ Studio, run through local Stable Diffusion, very minor color correction in Photoshop. The grain and other effects are intentional to make it look more like an older cartoon. Thanks for taking a look!
