Cel shading or toon shading is a type of non-photorealistic rendering designed to make 3D computer graphics appear to be flat by using less shading color instead of a shade gradient or tints and shades. A cel shader is often used to mimic the style of a comic book or cartoon and/or give the render a characteristic paper-like texture. [1]

Cartoon rendering, also called cel shading or toon shading, is a non-photorealistic rendering technique used to give 3D computer graphics a flat, cartoon-like appearance. Its defining feature is the use of distinct shading colors rather than smooth gradients, producing a look reminiscent of comic books or animated films.

Flat shading is a simple shading model with a uniform application of lighting and color per polygon. [32] The color and normal of one vertex is used to calculate the shading of the entire polygon. [18] Flat shading is inexpensive, as lighting for each polygon only needs to be calculated once per render. [32]
Subsurface scattering is an indirect form of reflection where some of the light is transmitted into a semi-transparent material, scattered under the surface and bounced back out again.
Cel shading really just refers to the shading technique of using a few (usually 2-4) discrete bands of color instead of a smooth gradient to shade an object. Cel shading is commonly used together with some sort of outline rendering algorithm to produce a cartoon effect, but that does not mean that outline rendering is part of cel shading.
This allows shading to occur only in mid-tones so that edge lines and highlights remain visually prominent. The Gooch shader is typically implemented in two passes: all objects in the scene are first drawn with the "cool to warm" shading, and in the second pass the object’s edges are rendered in black.
