Here's my attempt at the Gear Ring by Kinekt (I've been coveting this ring for a while so it was an obvious choice for this challenge).

I wanted to bevel all the edges, texture the ring and tidy up some of the sloppy modelling, but ran out of time.

Plugins used were Shape Bender, Artisan, Weld and the 1001bit fillet tool. The cog shape was created in Illustrator and imported as a DWG.

Measurements and cog spacings are all done by eye - not even sure how I'd model the gears accurately

Inspired by Dan Rathbun's question, I thought I'd bring some actual christmas-themed earrings I made in real life, into the digital realm.
While they look rather simple, I put some extra fine detail into them, to make them competition-worthy. See wireframe image.

Time is up. I will get the voting up soon.
