What you can upload

From a sketch on paper or a tablet to a render

The studio sees that it is a hand sketch and renders it as one. You can change that if it guesses wrong.

A sketch on paper

Pencil, ink or marker. Scan it or take a photo straight from above, in good light.

A tablet sketch

Export the drawing as a PNG or JPG. PNG, JPG or WebP files up to 10 MB are accepted.

Pick a look

Daylight, evening sun, dusk or night, material looks and interior styles, 36 looks in all.

Say what matters

Anything the sketch leaves open, such as materials, planting, the view or small furniture, the render fills in. Write what matters in the notes, for example white render and oak windows.

Example

An interior sketch, rendered

A generated sample picture, not a client project. The render on the right is not edited.

Photoreal AI render of the same living room made from the sketch, with a sea view and furniture filled in, a sample picture

SketchAI render

Double height living room

The stair, the island, the pendant lamp and the furniture layout follow the sketch. The render added the materials, a sea view, two armchairs, a rug and kitchen cabinets.

Step by step

How to turn a sketch into a render

3 steps. Your first picture needs no account.

1. Scan or photograph the sketch

Straight from above, with the whole drawing in the picture and no shadows across it.

2. Upload it and pick a look

The studio reads it as a hand sketch. Choose a look and add a short note about materials if you want.

3. Get the render

You get a photoreal render that follows your lines. Fix one area or try another look if you like.

What to expect

What the AI keeps from your sketch and what it fills in

The example pair is a generated sample picture, not a client project.

What stays the same

Your lines set the shape, the windows and the camera. In the samples the massing, the roof, the cantilever, the window grid, the terrace and steps, and in the interior the stair, island, pendant and furniture layout stayed.

What changes

Anything the sketch leaves open is filled in: all materials, planting and trees, the view outside the windows and small furniture. In the interior sample the render added a sea view, two armchairs, a rug and kitchen cabinets.

What can move

The render is drawn from your sketch, so small details can move. Proportions can shift a little, and bare scribbled trees come back as full trees. Write what matters in the notes. Compare it with your sketch before you rely on it.

What happens to your sketch

Only the picture of the sketch is sent. We do not use your images to train AI, and we do not publish your renders.

Sketch to render FAQ

Questions about turning a sketch into a render

Sketches, scans, materials and accuracy.

Render my sketch

Is this sketch to render AI free?

Yes. Your first render is free, with no account. A free account gives 5 free renders and 5 free fixes.

Can AI turn a hand sketch into a render?

Yes. Upload a scan or a photo of the sketch. The AI keeps the shape, the windows and the camera of your drawing and turns the lines into real materials and light.

Does it work with a rough sketch?

Yes, but a clearer sketch gives a closer result. Where the sketch leaves something open, the render fills it in, so describe what matters in the notes.

Can I render an interior sketch?

Yes. Sketch the room from where you would stand, upload it and pick an interior look.

I have a 3D model, not a sketch. What should I use?

Upload a screenshot of the model instead. Our AI rendering page has the steps for SketchUp, Revit, Archicad, Rhino and other programs.

Can I show the render to a client?

Free renders are for personal use and carry a small 3Dstudio.co logo. Any plan or credit pack allows client work and removes the logo.
