Hi there everyone - Not too sure if this would be a more appropriate question to post under the "designers" forum but here goes ... Is there a way to make 3D statues or other similar objects in SL? Specifically ... I'd love to create a gargoyle, and have found a great picture of one ... but don't know how to translate it into what I want in SL. I can upload the picture, but that's 2D, and I want much more detail than I think I can get from rezzing and playing with "create" objects. I thought I've seen similar objects inworld, but of course, can't find them now! Any suggestions are appreciated. discordia Sandgrain

You'd be surprised at just how much detail you can get out of an object, especially when cut in odd ways and combined with the right textures.
I assume you've attended Building 101, so maybe it's time for a moe advanced building class. Texturing too...

It is most certainly possible to make a gargoyle... I believe Flyk Escher made one during alpha  Some people have wing attachments resembling gargoyle wings as well.

I have a statue gallery up in Umber if you care to take a look, just a few works by me and some of my friends but they're really nice. Feel free to stop by ^^

From: someone Originally posted by Maxx Monde I was there last night, I wanted to check out siggy's sculpture, but found a whole gallery of nice work!!
Also the gallery was made by him, and I really admire the column/archwork.
Great job! ??? Hehe may have your wires crossed if your talking about the gallery in Avalon -- I think that's nicolas work. I'm working on one atm but it's still at my workshop still. Cheers. Siggy.
