SVG 3D Ball Generator
What is an SVG 3D Ball Generator?
An SVG generator for balls and circles that look and feel 3D, as if they are real-world surfaces hit by light. You pick a color, then adjust highlight (intensity, radius, position X/Y, opacity), dark area (intensity, radius, position X/Y, opacity), and shadow (opacity, blur, X, Y—or remove shadow). Overall size controls the ball scale. Behind the scenes it uses SVG radialGradient and Chroma.js for lighter and darker shades. The result is a 2D image of a circle that feels 3D—add dimension and real-world feel to designs. Export SVG for web or design tools.
Features for Designers
A free SVG generator for 3D-looking balls.
Circles that look like real-world surfaces hit by light.
Intensity, radius, position X/Y, opacity. Simulate light source.
Intensity, radius, position X/Y, opacity. Shadow on surface.
Shadow opacity, blur, X, Y. Or remove shadow.
Automatic lighter/darker shades. radialGradient for depth.
Copy SVG markup or save. Add dimension to designs.
How To Create 3D Balls
Generate 3D-looking circles in three steps.
Select the base color for your ball.
Tweak highlight and dark area. Position, intensity, radius, opacity.
Set shadow or remove. Copy or save SVG.
Tips for 3D Balls
Get the most out of the generator.
Position X/Y simulates light direction. Offset for realistic angle.
Shadow adds grounding. Remove for floating or flat look.
Dark area creates depth. Adjust intensity for subtle or strong 3D.
