Lets make something simple. Lulu’s necklaces. This will take between 20-60 minutes. 1. Open Blender, download the 0_figure.obj, and import it into Blender. This will be our size reference. 2. Under Modifiers, select Subsurface tessellation, and set the view levels from 1 to 2. 3. Create a cube from the dropdown menu, and make sure its xyz position is 0,0,0 in the scene. 4. With the cube still selected, go to edit mode, and scale it down to the size in the picture. 5. Go to the side view, and move it in front of the figure’s neck. 6. Pick the scale tool, and scale down the height of the cube as indicated. 7. Now add 2 edge loops. Hold contr+R as you mouse over and a perpendicular edge. Once a new edge loop appears in the correct place, roll the middle mouse wheel up to make 2 equally divided edge loops, instead of just one edge loop. Click the LMB to finish the operation. (These edge loops will help flatten out the sides of the object once the subsurf modifier is added) 8. Go to the front view, and move the cube closer to the figure’s left shoulder. 9. Under Modifiers, select Subsurface tessellation, and set the view levels from 1 to 2. This will change the cube into an oval shape. 10. Go to the side view and make 4 copies and move and rotate them as indicated. 11. Go back to the front view and note that they are all lined up from top to bottom. Rearrange them so that they make a curve. 12. Make a bead as indicated, and duplicate it. 13. Copy this pair of beads, and place and rotate them so they fit between the larger ovals. 14. Add a Mirror modifier, so that the other half of the necklace is created automatically. 15. Only add one bead next to the x-axis, since it will be mirrored 16.
