Hm..Wings is probably one of the easiest modeling packages to use, once you have the interface figured out.. your right mouse button brings up the menus, the left makes selections. There's tons of tutorials in the Tutorials section here, and at the Wings site. There's a pdf manual as well on the site. For this, I created a torus, flattened the top and bottom (hardest part was getting the thickness right..;), scaled the middle front on the y axis, then extruded the faces of the belt a bit. The circle in the center was just a cylinder, inset slightly, and extruded inward. I haven't watched wrestling for years, so I've only seen people either waving or wearing the belt; I'm not sure what the buckle would look like. The modeling would be different if you were waving vs wearing(where noone sees the buckle..;) I can send you the obj, through email if you'd like. Wings is free, and once you smooth the rest of the belt, it probably starts looking more realistic..I have a lot of fun with Wings..and despite contstant downloading, usually wind up making my own props and clothes (well, hats..;) I'll pull it up and see what changes I can make..I wish I'd said that..
