Autodesk Impression Release 3 will be available to Autodesk Subscription customers for download in the near future and is currently in beta testing with customers.
What is Autodesk Impression?
”Autodesk Impression converts precision drawings to visually attractive design illustrations by applying appearance styles that simulate everything from pencil-drawn sketches to hand-colored renderings.”
Some of the high level improvements coming in this new release:
And more.
Below is my simple koi pond design in Autodesk Impression 3. I was able to import the pond from a DWG file from AutoCAD. Now if the DWG file for the pond changes all I do is select Update and my 2D rendering is updated to reflect the changes with the styles applied without having to start from scratch.
I also used Impression for fun awhile back to create one of my blog banners complete with a coffee stain to look like an authentic blueprint.
