Genshin Impact Character Shader for EEVEE  

This Genshin Impact-styled Character Shader is a Blender node group for EEVEE heavily inspired by the character shader used in the video game Genshin Impact.  Easily give your models a beautiful anime appearance with fully customizable artificial subsurface scattering, subsurface color, shadow color, and rim lights.  Add metallic reflection and specular matcaps as well with full support for texture maps.

The shader will continue to be updated for new Blender releases.

v1.6 - 2022/7/8 

• Base Color
  • Light Color Consideration
    • Changing the color of scene lighting now customizably tints the base color and no longer affects the shadow position.
• Shadow
  • Shadow Masks
    • Add custom shadow mask maps to your models to create areas that are always in shadow.
• Metallic
  • Improved MatCap Logic
    • The procedural metallic matcap should now render more accurately when near the edges of the viewport, especially with wider focal lengths.

Thank you all so much for your support!
