Thought I would start out from scratch with something simple so I modelled the first thing (and simplest shape) thing I could find on my desk.

Paperclip

It was a lot easier than I first thought. I created a bezier curve for the clip, then mapped a circle shape to the curve. Added a shiny material to the object and then rendered.

I’m finding that building organic models are a lot harder to do than simple objects. Guess that just comes with practice.
