Pavé Teddy Bear
Sculpt a teddy bear that ends up dressed in diamonds. Working over three centered reference images (top, front and side — included in the Downloads), you’ll build the bear sphere by sphere in SubD: head, ears refined with Soft Transform, a mirrored body with a flattened base, and legs and arms duplicated with the Gumball — always editing one side while symmetry mirrors the other.

Then the transformation: the model scales to a 20 × 20 mm frame, the inner faces disappear so only the visible surfaces take stones, and Automatic Pave covers the bear with 0.8, 0.9 and 1.0 mm gems, secured by prongs at 0.6 mm. A cuddly toy becomes a fully set jewel. Follow the step-by-step lessons at your own pace, then watch the video lesson at the end to see the whole build in one sitting.
