The reason that 3D renders never look like traditional anime is largely because anime uses simple shading. Anime shadows generally do not become darker as they receive less light; an area is either shaded or it is not. Shadows are also usually hard-edged and rounded or triangular on anime figures, while realistic shadows do not have well-defined edges. Poser's Cartoon w/Line mode can create these style of shadows to some degree, and we will put them to use in this tutorial.
