lol, I apologise for the confusion. I drew the image in Photoshop and Toon Boom Studio. I am sure a render from Maya toon render would produce a much cleaner result. I just decided to make it into 3d and parharps add him to my animated cartoon. I don't know too much about Maya toon shader though. Would propably get into that later. @ Chirone - gonna try the alpha plane technique and see if it looks good. but thinking about it now, putting the alpha planes is a good idea.
