Hey guys!
When I had my spare time around, I decided to create a Blender tutorial (I think I had just made a Terragen 2 tutorial ...) on something really tough. I decided on a fancy watch after seeing one in a magazine. It took quite a long time and Blender Guru actually nearly took the tutorial (note the 'nearly'), but here it is:

Oh yeah, I don't suggest you use this tutorial for your Terragen 2 scenes.
