Best Practices for Image-Based Prompts
Example 1: Technical Part
"Create a 3D model of this mechanical bracket. Match the mounting hole pattern shown in the image. The overall width is 150mm. Maintain the same proportions and include the reinforcement ribs visible in the corners. Add 1mm fillets to all edges for better printability."Example 2: Product Enclosure
"Design an enclosure based on this image. The height should be 80mm. Include the curved front panel and ventilation pattern shown. Make the walls 2.5mm thick and add internal mounting posts for a PCB. The top should be removable with snap fits."Example 3: Organic Shape
"Convert this vase design into a 3D model. The total height should be 200mm. Maintain the organic flowing pattern shown in the image. Make the base diameter 80mm and the wall thickness 3mm. Ensure the surface is smooth and printable."Tips for Better Results
Image Quality
- • Use clear, well-lit images
- • Include multiple angles if possible
- • Ensure important details are visible
- • Avoid cluttered backgrounds
- • Higher resolution images work better
Prompt Writing
- • Specify exact dimensions
- • Point out critical features in the image
- • Mention any modifications needed
- • Include manufacturing considerations
- • Reference specific parts of the image
Common Use Cases
Reverse Engineering
"Based on this image of a broken mounting bracket, create a replacement part. The overall length matches the ruler shown (125mm). Include all mounting holes and maintain the same thickness. Add reinforcement ribs to prevent future breaks."Design Modification
"Using this image as reference, create a similar enclosure but 20% larger. Keep the same style and ventilation pattern, but add mounting flanges on the sides. The original width is 100mm."
