## Introduction

Creating professional-quality renders from your sketches has never been easier. Whether you’re a designer looking to bring your ideas to life or someone exploring creative possibilities, Fermat streamlines the rendering process for garments, accessories, and colorful designs. This guide will walk you through the steps to transform your sketches into high-fidelity renders.

## Step by step guide

To visualize your sketch as a render, follow these steps:

### Prepare your sketch

Ensure your sketch is **clean** and **clear**. Avoid different views and annotations. If you're working with hand-drawn sketches, scan them in high resolution to retain details.

{% endstep %}

### Open the AI tool

1. Go to [Fermat.app](https://fermat.app/) and log into your account.
2. Open:&#x20;
   * '[Visualize apparel sketches](https://toolmaker.fermat.app/tool/visualize-your-sketches-apparel-ac8fa96f-1c41-4ef4-bacb-98ad60496c3e)' tool if you want to visualize a garment.
   * '[Visualize accessory sketches](https://toolmaker.fermat.app/tool/visualize-your-sketches-56eae83f-ba15-42d0-a0ce-0c5d265e1040)' tool if you want to visualize an accessory.
     {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Describe your design

Add a brief description of your design. Be as specific as possible about elements like:

* Fabric type (e.g., silk, denim, leather)
* Colors and patterns
* Accessories or additional details (e.g., buttons, zippers)

{% hint style="info" %}
Example: Turtleneck sweater, ribbed texture, long sleeves, slim fit, high collar, vertical stripes, soft knit fabric, front view, seamless design, product photography, neutral light grey color, clean white background, high resolution, detailed textile texture.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Optionally, you can click the <mark style="color:purple;">blue magic wand button</mark> to refine your description. Alternatively, upload a reference image and press the same button to analyze it and generate an accurate description based on the attached image.
{% endhint %}

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Upload your sketch

Click on the upload area and select the sketch that you would like to turn into a render.

{% hint style="warning" %}
The sketch should not include a model wearing the garment.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
Supported formats: JPEG, PNG, and WEBP
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Ajust shape preservation from your sketch

Define how much the AI model should follow your digital sketch reference. This means:

* A lower value gives the AI **more creative freedom**, meaning it may deviate from your design and introduce new elements.
* A higher value ensures that the AI **keep every detail** of your sketch.
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Generate image

Click on the *'Generate Render'* button and let the AI process your inputs. In a few seconds, you will have a high-fidelity render of your design.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Review the output and, if necessary, **change the provided sketch and modify visualization parameters** for better results.
{% endhint %}

### (Optional) Negative prompt

You can also specify words or concepts you want the AI to avoid. For example, you can indicate that the garment should not be made of denim

### (Optional) Choose a reference image

Your high-fidelity render can optionally follow the aesthetic of a reference image.

### (Optional) Specify HEX or Pantone color

The AI can follow a specific HEX color value and apply it to the high-fidelity render.
