The panther is the course’s final test — a fierce, characterful head that has to read as an animal and as a ring at the same time. Nothing here is symmetrical by accident or set by a number; it’s sculpted by eye from three reference views. In this project you’ll block out the panther head in SubD, union it into a shank, and jewel it from the eyes to the muzzle.
Design the Wild Majesty panther ring using RhinoArtisan.
In this tutorial you will learn how to:
- Set up the three panther views and block out the head in SubD — muzzle, mouth and oriented faces, mirrored with Reflect.
- Model and mirror the ears, build a Classic shank with a cutting opening, and Boolean Union everything into one clean SubD skull.
- Set pear-cut eyes in custom SubD bezels and define the two pavé territories with projected and trimmed curves.
- Fill both areas with Automatic Pave at 1.3–1.0 mm, add automatic and dynamic prongs, and open the seats with cutters and a Boolean Difference.
By the end of this project, you’ll have the skills to sculpt the Wild Majesty panther ring from scratch.
