Instant Render moves a sketch one stage closer to a finished render, with no prompt, and keeps the structure of your drawing.
A running-shoe line sketch connected to an Instant Render block. Callouts mark 1 the block header with its back arrow, 2 the Target fidelity menu open over the block with Auto (next stage) checked, then Line Sketch, Color Blocking, Highlights & Shadows and Realistic, 3 the empty Reference drop area, partly under the open menu, 4 the Outputs menu set to 1 and 5 the Render button.

Header and back arrow (1), Target fidelity (2), Reference (3), Outputs (4), Render (5).

Use Instant Render

1

Add the block

Drag the Instant Render tile from Insert (+) onto the canvas and connect your sketch.
The Insert (+) menu open below the top toolbar, with Insert marked 1 and the Instant Render tile marked 2. The menu lists upload options, then tiles for Sketch, Instant Render, Make 3D, Animate, Modify, Variate, Extract, Try on and the legacy Style, Mix and Render blocks.

Insert (+) (1) and the Instant Render tile (2).

2

Choose a stage

Pick a Target fidelity 2, or leave Auto (next stage).
3

Add a reference (optional)

Add a Style image or Color Palette under Reference 3.
4

Render

Pick Outputs 4 and click Render 5.
In Studio, click Instant Render in the Modify tab, then Generate.

​
Stages

There’s no prompt, Mode or Resolution: the output size follows the source image.

Tips

  • Step through stages for control. Fix the Color Blocking result in Studio before you go Realistic.
  • Clean the sketch first. Notes, arrows and construction lines can end up in the render.
  • Finish with Modify. Select the render and press Q to change materials in words.

​
Good to know

  • Credits: 8 per output for a source up to 1,024 px on the long side, 24 up to 2,048 px, 32 above, on plans billed in credits.
  • The back arrow 1 turns the block back into a Modify list and drops its settings.
  • Target fidelity isn’t saved. It resets to Auto (next stage) when you reload.
