And don't forget you can do "quick sketch" like views used a saved .pmk file with lines converted to wiggly sketch style, then overlaid with a rendered image (I like to edit in an image editor and use a slight blur filter over it)
It looks very nice. But I can't understand exactly, how you use the technique with pmk file...

It would be great, if you can explain more detailed...
In Plotmaker ...
Create a hidden line view using 3d internal engine and save the 3d view as a plotmaker file "*.pmk*. Open it in plotmaker (not archicad), select all and change line type to sketch style line. Save again. From plotmaker overlay rendered image with "*.pmk* file to achieve effect.

In Archicad ...
You can also save a 3d view in hidden line view using 3d internal engine and and save as Archicad 2dl. Open in archicad, cut & paste into your model (plan or unlinked elevation) with the rendered image brought in as a figure.
