This creation, aided much by a tutorial probably from this website. I had a lot of trouble making subcuts bend to my will, so the designs that are supposed to be in the middle are just broken and nonexistent. Also, the graininess in the background is enough to make any blender newbie frustrated. Any advice and criticism is welcome and begged for!
Best advice is patience. Learn to walk before you try to fly. Start with the basics. It will be faster in the long run.
