Jelly 3D Icons JSON Prompt Template
ChatGPT prompt template for generating consistent translucent 3D product icons
A structured JSON prompt template designed for ChatGPT-4o to generate cohesive, translucent 3D icons. It specifies camera angles, material translucency, pastel palettes, and layered composition so you can render consistent icon sets without 3D modeling skills.
The prompt
Steps: 1. Open ChatGPT-4o. 2. Paste the JSON template. 3. Replace "YOUR_ICON_NAME_HERE" with the idea (e.g. "Graph with Bars" or "Notification Bell") and hit Enter.
JSON template:
{
"style": "Jelly 3D icon",
"icon_name": "[YOUR_ICON_NAME_HERE]",
"materials": {
"main": "Semi-translucent jelly-like plastic with soft refraction",
"accents": "Glossy or matte plastic for floating elements, with slight glow or highlight"
},
"composition": {
"structure": "Layered 3D structure with floating or embedded parts to create dimensionality",
"depth": "Visible internal layers with spacing and inner glow to emphasize 3D volume",
"camera": "Centered front or subtle top-front angle to showcase depth and layering"
},
"colors": {
"palette": "Use 3 to 4 well-matched pastel or soft tones per icon",
"rules": "Maintain high contrast between layers while keeping the palette cohesive and calm"
},
"lighting": {
"type": "Soft balanced studio lighting from top and sides",
"shadows": "Clean and subtle shadows beneath or within translucent areas for depth"
},
"background": {
"color": "#F6F6F6",
"description": "Soft neutral cream background to match all icons consistently",
"format": "1:1 square ratio, minimum 1024x1024 resolution, transparent PNG or solid background"
},
"render_quality": {
"details": "Use smooth anti-aliased edges, soft reflections, and perfect geometry",
"style_consistency": "Every icon should follow the same visual log[ic]" (text truncated in screenshot)
},
"output": {
"intent": "Designed for use in modern product UI, mobile dashboards, onboarding scenes, or icon packs"
}
}
Example results: battery with lightning bolt (mint/orange), trash bin (mint lid, pink-blue gradient body), spiral note pad ('Note' in orange), download folder (orange, blue arrow).
