Hey all!
I was so hoping to get an update in and yay! Wasili has not vanished from the project. He is busy talking with many people about these and other NPR tools for Blender. I'm sure he'll update when he's ready.
To keep this short, I only covered what is new - sharpness settings for all shaders and anisotropic shaders (point and sun). For how to add them, use them, and more info see below.
Thank you for watching! And a massive thank you for all the support and interest! We are so honored and blessed to share this!

![For Anime in Blender - Course Sprinkler [Tutorial]
Hey all!
https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/exterior/landscape/for-anime-in-blender-course-sprinkler
Time for another tutorial and it covering something of a missing item in anime (at least as far as I have seen). The last time I recall a sprinkler in a movie was in Bolt where there was one of those harp-style ones that swivel. Even when I did research for reference I couldnt find any. Im really puzzled by it. I did some searching and I found that the Japanese do have sprinklers for farmland, but I think the fact that its such an urban landscape, that they simply dont feature, because theyre not all that much of an occurrence. Do you know any shows where sprinkers feature? Leave a comment below!
Because when I didnt find any anime sprinklers (apart from fire ones), I had to find another approach. I had to check out similar elements and how water is handled in general and piece by piece we got this!

- noise gate crackled and muffled white noise for the contact sound (Audacity generated and GGate - GVST)
- white noise for the constant sprinkler spray (Audacity Generated)
- bird sounds (recorded a year or so ago)
