A compact add-on that covers a single job: stylised outlines on selected objects, controllable in thickness and colour, across Cycles and Eevee.
Stylized Outline is a Blender add-on from Hisoka852 that adds bold, customizable outlines to 3D models. It works through a solidify modifier and a rim material, generating clean stylised edges whose thickness and colour you can adjust. Outlines apply only to the objects you select, giving precise control over where the effect lands.
The add-on suits toon shading, concept art, or adding dramatic visual impact to renders. It runs with both Cycles and Eevee, and supports Blender versions 4.0 through 5.1. It is a Blender extension released under the GPL license, with documentation provided by the developer.
Within the superhive library, Stylized Outline earns its place as a focused add-on for adding stylised edges to selected objects. The combination of adjustable thickness, colour control, and per-object application keeps its scope clear. A demo video is available for those who want to see more before installing.
Stylized Outline is best for blender artists working on toon shading, concept art, or renders that need stylised outlines with adjustable thickness and colour.
Stylized Outline is completely free to download and use.
Stylized Outline supports Blender versions 4.0 through 5.1, and it's listed as a Blender extension with extension compatibility confirmed. That range covers current 4.x releases and continues through the 5.1 line, so most recent Blender installations should be able to run it. It was published about a month ago on superhive. If you're on an older build below 4.0, check the developer's page before installing to confirm your setup will work with the add-on.
Stylized Outline works with both Cycles and Eevee, the two render engines it lists support for. That means you can add stylised edges whether your project renders through Cycles or Eevee, without switching tools between them. The add-on generates its outlines using a solidify modifier and a rim material, and adjustable thickness and colour let you tune the result. For any engine-specific questions, the developer provides documentation you can reference.
Stylized Outline is listed as free in this catalog, so you can add it without a purchase here. Licensing terms can change over time, and the add-on is distributed under the GPL license, so for the most current details on pricing and permissions it's worth checking the developer's page directly. The GPL license also governs how the add-on can be used, modified, and shared.
Stylized Outline applies only to the objects you select, giving you precise control over where the outline effect appears. Rather than treating an entire scene at once, you choose which models get stylised edges, which suits isolating specific objects. The outlines it generates use a solidify modifier and rim material, with thickness and colour you can adjust. This selective, per-object approach is a core part of how the add-on works.
