Inverse Hull Outlines R&D

This is some R&D I'm doing on advanced outlines in Unreal Engine. Made using the inverse hull technique, which allows for some pretty creative expressions that are either more difficult or not possible to do with post-process outlines.

Headset Prop Example

A simple outline with uneven thickness around the mesh.

With a bit of shader magic, we can really give the outline a rough and splattered appearance.

We can layer the effect and color the outline using the underlying model's albedo.

The color can be modified to exaggerate the vibrant marker pen aesthetic.

Even more layers can be added, any of which can have color or remain black.
