Inkwood 2.0 - Ink Drawing Shader Pack
WHAT IS INKWOOD?
Inkwood Blender shaders redesign your great 3D art into ink drawings and paintings. You simply make your models and composition, put my shaders (and probably the outlines) on, set them up, correct the lighting and smash render. And you're done!
Inkwood is made for illustrators, comic authors, indie artists, animators, and anybody interested in inking.
The original idea was to speed up the process of comic background painting. But I ended up with a great tool for making artworks of various types. Some shaders are good for very stylized stuff, but there are also some super-handy ones for making high-detailed drawings.

ADDITIONAL INFO
Before using, please, check the documentation. It will not only help you with the installation, but it will also give you some great headstart tips - how to set up the outlines and so on.
The outlines are made with the Solidify trick.
The shaders are made in Eevee and they will NOT probably work well in Cycles.
Every shader has color input - so you can directly change white and black to whatever you want. Some of them have also additional coloring input / like Fresnel, AO, Mist, or Artistic Tint.
The shaders are always only one node - so you can combine them and experiment!
The original Dragon model is by Rico Cilliers.
