I am new to building and cannot for the life of me figure out how to build sheer drapes that curve. I've found plenty that are in a straight line, but nothing that can follow a curve.

Can anyone give me any ideas on how to do this?

Thanks!!

Bonus points for anyone who can point me towards those draped ivy or moss that I see hanging off buildings ;-)

have you tried putting your drapes texture on the inside or outside of a hollowed cylinder?

I have nothing about the drapes, but the moss/ivy I've seen at HM Designs in Varney and Grignano.

Moss/Ivy is Available from Relic (Baron Grayson) He is a fantastic builder and I believe its part of a build kit.

As for the Curved Drapes, It depends how you want your drapes. I have had great success with hollowed cut and twisted cones for curtains and hollowed and cut cylinders for the middle parts.
The best way to get it the way you like is to experiment with cutting/twisting prims that look like they could form he shape you desire.
I'm sure other people have some better ideas :)
