Render a sketch with Modify (a prompt) or Instant Render (no prompt).
The Insert (+) menu open below the top toolbar, with Insert marked 1 and the Instant Render tile marked 2. The menu lists the upload rows, then tiles for Sketch, Instant Render, Make 3D, Animate, Modify, Variate, Extract, Try on and the legacy Style, Mix and Render blocks.

Insert (+) (1): upload at the top of the menu, or add Instant Render (2).

Prompt: “Make this vehicle appear rendered orange and shiny.”

​
Draw in Studio

Studio with the Paint Bucket tool active and the color picker open: Primary and Secondary swatches, a color field, a hue slider, an eyedropper and a hex value. The coffee-pot sketch behind it has several areas filled with blue.

Blocking in surfaces with the Paint Bucket.

On a stylus or iPad, finger painting turns off once Vizcom detects the pen. Turn it back on in Preferences > Brush Settings > Allow painting with finger.

Render with Instant Render

Instant Render takes a sketch to its next stage of finish, with no prompt.
  1. Click Insert (+) > Instant Render and connect the sketch.
  2. Set Target fidelity: Auto (next stage) moves up one stage, or pick a stage.
  3. Optionally add a Reference.
  4. Click Render.

​
Keep the render close to your lines

  • Say so: “Keep the exact proportions, silhouette and linework.”
  • Keep Aspect Ratio on Original. Other ratios recompose the image.
  • Step through Instant Render stages instead of jumping to Realistic.
The Drawing Influence slider exists only in the legacy tools.
