I just found Autodesk Impression 3 on the Autodesk Subscription Center for download by Autodesk Subscription customers. Autodesk Impression 3 beta testers for project Corradino on Autodesk MyFeedback will receive a copy of it as thanks for their feedback and participation.
I mentioned Autodesk Impression 3 not too long ago showing off my simple Koi pond design.
Blog Post Autodesk Impression 3 Details
Below is my simple koi pond design in Autodesk Impression 3. I was able to import the pond layout from a DWG file from AutoCAD 2010. One of the time savers is the DWG file for the pond I used changes (we all know projects change several times) all I do is select Update and my 2D rendering is updated to reflect the changes with the styles applied. It does not force you to start from scratch again like a photo raster editing application would.
Some of the high level improvements in this new release:
- Adaptive Gradients – Cool!
- Layer Enhancements – Like the new drop-down list with layer tools added to the Layers palette toolbar.
- Style Books
- Color Books – RAL Added and Pantone updated.
- Style Library Wizard
- Global Style Controls – Like rotate
- Block Improvements – Including the ability to create a new block from a selection by right-click. And you can use the ‘B’ key to create a new block. and being able to easily identify blocks.
- 2010 DWG file formats
- Fortified with 12 essential vitamins and minerals completing a fun and well balanced breakfast.
And more.
So Autodesk Subscription customers can go download Autodesk Impression 3 now!
For those interested in Autodesk trivia for project codenames, Corradino was named after Corradino D’Ascanio who invented the first helicopter.
I love Autodesk Impression and have shown it around the world and heard many ooohs and ahhhs. Many I spoke with stated they can get their individual style back into the project design phase and provide an alternative look to a photo realistic rendering. In many cases you cannot distinguish a hand rendering from one in Autodesk Impression unless of course you are looking at the billable hours to create it as Autodesk Impressions’ goal was to take a several day process and reduce it to around 20 minutes.

Is Impression 3 available for customers of Autodesk Inventor professional 2010 on subscription? I couldn’t find the link to download on the subscription page! I was a beta tester for version 2.
I would rush to download if it were available to LT subscriptions. Its odd to me, it seems the marriage of these two programs is ideal.
