Pavé Pendant
Model a gem-set pendant from a SubD box to a finished turntable video. This is the most complete project in the course: SubD sculpting with edge loops, a Rail Revolve reference surface, Automatic Pave with 4-way symmetry, prongs and cutters adapted to a pendant, a decorative profile pattern mirrored across both axes, and a fully configured bail.

To close, you’ll set up materials, lighting and a ray-traced turntable render — 10 seconds at 30 fps, square 1200 × 1200 — ready for social media. 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. The reference curves are in the Downloads section below.
