Blender Jewelry Design | Modeling a Snake Scale Ring! [Tutorial]

In this tutorial, I show how I modeled a snake scale ring in Blender with the use of modifiers and some standard sculpting tools.
Timecodes:

I’ve been using blender for a couple years now, but there’s so much to learn, I picked up a few tips and tricks from watching this video, thanks! Great content bro!

[@heidizimmermann8440]

Thank you very much. This video is great!!

[@cdeichhorn]

Turned out great. Loved to see it resin printed and cast

[@GraceNoteForge]

Thanks Chuck! I'll hopefully be printing and casting this one soon 😁

Cant wait for thr next video. Wanna see it become practial

[@melika_art_world]

Perfect 👍

Can you please do a video on how to wrap 3D text around a ring like this?

[@elisacorrea5461]

Hello! great tutroail as usual. But im having a bit of trouble when changing shrinkwraps offset in order for the plane to go a bit into the band. When i do change it the plane gets deformed. Any idea of what might be going wrong??

[@bendover-bz4bc]

Would love to see the casting of this design

[@GraceNoteForge]

Thanks! I can't wait to give this one a try. I'll be sure to share the results 👍

Box trim in sculpt always crashes Blender no matter what I'm working on. Line trim works well if anyone else is having this issue

[@lukefarmer737]

The trick with placing the empty at the center to rotate the scales around the ring isn't working for me. Would using blender 4.1 be the cause of this?

[@GG-ri5hd]

is there a chance i could commission a ring from you? i already have the design, but i dont know how to model it on blender
