See it finished before it is made
Photorealistic images and animations of products, packaging and spaces, made from CAD models or drawings, for selling and approvals.
In plain English.
Renders let you sell, pitch or win approval before anything physical exists. A product can appear on your website or a crowdfunding page while tooling is still being made. A shop fit-out can be shown to a landlord. A range can be shown in every colour without photographing each one. We create those images from your CAD files or build the model from drawings.
We set up materials, lighting and camera angles to look like a real photograph: brushed aluminium, soft-touch plastic, fabric, wood grain. Outputs include white background images, lifestyle scenes, exploded views showing how parts go together and short turntable animations. Images are supplied at high resolution for print as well as sized for the web.
It suits you if.
- Your product is not manufactured yet but you need to sell it
- You want every colour or variant shown without photographing each one
- You need visuals for planning, a landlord or an investor
- You want exploded views to explain how a product works
What we do.
From your CAD
We import STEP, IGES, OBJ or native files, or model from drawings if no 3D exists.
Realistic materials
Metals, plastics, fabrics and finishes set up to match real samples.
Colour variants
Once a scene is set up, extra colours and finishes are quick to produce.
Exploded views
Technical-style exploded renders that explain assembly or features.
Animations
Turntables and simple fly-throughs as MP4 files for the web and social media.

Final output
Approved images are rendered at full resolution and delivered with any variants.
Questions people ask.
What files do you need?
Ideally STEP or native CAD files of the product. OBJ, FBX or SKP files can work for spaces and furniture. If you only have drawings or photos, we can build the model first, which is quoted separately so you can see the full cost up front.
How realistic will the images be?
With accurate models and real material samples to match, renders can be very hard to tell from photographs. Sending physical samples, or close-up photos of finishes in daylight, helps us get colours and textures right.
How much does rendering cost?
Priced per project, based on the number of images, scenes and variants. Adding colour variants to an existing scene costs much less than the first image. We agree a fixed price after the call, before any modelling or lighting work starts.
Can renders replace product photos on marketplaces?
For your own website, adverts and crowdfunding pages, yes. Marketplaces set their own rules, and Amazon expects main images to be photographs of the actual product, so renders are best used for secondary images there. We flag the rules for wherever you sell.
