Contour Shading
I've stumbled upon an interesting effect for toon shading at
https://www.fenriz.org/projects/maya/
Basically its where the outline of the toon shader shades the contours of the model not just the outer edges. Every toon shader I've seen doesn't do this and this effect the authors says to use Mental Ray to create the effect. However I'm still using Maya 4.0 and do not have access to Mental Ray or any other renderer other than the standard Maya renderer. However I still want to try to capture this effect. Does anyone know of a workaround? Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

I'd love to get my hands on Maya 6 and hopefully will be able to get ahold of it but that requires a better financial situation.
