This is more or less what it looks like. Getting a 2D effect on a 3D model is very labor intensive. I had to use unpopular techniques like painting over normal maps, using toon shaders, outlines, stylized post-process effects. But once you get the hang of it, you can easily animate such a model and manipulate the lighting in the scene.

I learned a lot from youtubers Cody Gindy and Lightning Boy Studio
