Tardigrade Ring

This concept has been floating around in my mind for a while, finally found the time to sculpt and print it. The Tardigrade (AKA Waterbear) Ring. I will probably need to do a couple more iterations to make sure it is comfortable to wear, it is a fairly chunky ring. After printing a test I'll wear it for a few days to see how well it fits. Cute cuddly microscopic buddha you can take with you anywhere, even in space! Gotta love those little tardigrade butt-cheeks on the backside of the ring. Hoping to cast this in silver soon and make it available for order at www.zbrushjewelrywarehouse.com soon!
