Photorealistic object rendered as more illustrated-cartoonish?

[Kinetic99]

Hello and thanks for your time,

I have set up textures and rendering solutions to render an object highly realistic (silver, reflections, frostings, etc)
Is there a quick way to set VRAY to render the same object and textures to that it looks more illustrated and dumbed down. Like a photoshop illustration work that mimicks a realistic object.?
If not, what is the longer way?

Hmm - You can have a look at things like using the falloff map set to shadow / light and put it inside a gradient ramp map set in mapped mode. If you use the solid mode interpolation for the gradient ramp and use a few levels of gray to white you can get some fake cel shaded effects, you could also use the vray toon effect using some noise maps in the radius slot to break it up a little bit. I've seen other people put some cross hatched line images into the shadow areas of objects using the same shadow / light trick as above, render out a few different styles of layers and mess with blending them with some paper textures in photoshop and you might get a look you like.
