I used the basic ring band from the resources for my class project.

Utilizing the techniques shown in class, I created different surface variations on my objects.

Finally, I assembled a few of those and made a few renders! The .blend file with the render setup is included in the resources.

My snake ring was created with the exact same technique. This is an example how it can look in metal (sterling silver 925/-). The pearl is a tahitian dark colored with a drilled hole, and it was glued on the "tongue" of the snake with epoxy glue. I have used Shapeways' print-on-demand service to print, cast and clean the design.
