kShading is a package of shaders for Unity's Universal Render Pipeline, offering a physically based Lit shader with anisotropy, clear coat, sub-surface scattering, and transmission, plus a Toon Lit cel-shading variant. It is distributed as a Unity package via git URL and requires Unity 2019.3 or higher.

Use cases

• add physically based shading to a Unity URP project
• create cel-shaded toon characters in Unity
• get sub-surface scattering and clear coat in URP shaders
• stylized toon rendering for Unity games
• extend Unity Universal Render Pipeline with custom shading models

When to choose

• you use Unity's Universal Render Pipeline and need advanced surface shading features
• you want a ready-made toon/cel shader with physically based underpinnings
• you prefer MIT-licensed, package-manager-installable shaders

When to avoid

• you use the Built-in or HDRP render pipelines instead of URP
• your Unity version is older than 2019.3
• you need a full rendering framework rather than shader models
