Hand rendering

Hand rendering refers to the use of hand drawings to represent a a space, situation, object, or building, more specifically it can refer to the style or act of applying the final finish to such a drawing. This is usually differentiating from digital rendering or indeed the physical surface rendering of a wall or building facade. However with the onset of digitisation and the development of different applications hand rendering might also be used as a command description, where by a computer programme will digitally recreate or give the effect of an image being a hand drawing. In general there are a variety of different techniques used in hand rendering (which nowadays can more often than not also be recreated digitally and thus appear as software commands or settings) such as; hatching, cross-hatching, stippling, scribbling, watercolour wash, marker pen highlighting and so on.
