Question

Character outline stroke thickness

Hello.

 

I'm trying to achieve a stroke effect to a character animation where all the outlines are thicker than interior lines... so... if the hand is intersecting the body remains with a thin stroke but once it gets out of the body the stroke starts showing a thicker width.

thank you
