Hi, I know this thread belongs in the "Building" forum, but that place doesn't allow attachments; I apologize if this is not appropriate.
I wonder if you experts have any idea how the attached picture can be realized in sl? The two intersecting tetrahedrons are easy; but, how can I get the free form holes so that the two worlds are totally separate? (This work of art is "Double Planetoid" by M. C. Escher, my favorite artist). It would also be fun if the construction could be made "sticky" so that sl avatars could rest in any orientation in either the animal or human world. (I'm new in sl, so I have taken the liberty of letting my imagination get a little out of bounds).
Thanks, Craig

Love Escher as well. You'll need your own sim and a TON of prims. Well ok, not ur own sim, but a parcel of land with a ton of prim allowance, maybe a sandbox. Holes? The arches u mean? As for resting...you might get away with a poseball with a sit animation you like.

Escher fans

Hi, it's good to see there are some Escher fans in sl. Maybe we can get something going. By the way, in another forum I mentioned I am trying to create Gravitation. So far, I have the stellated dodecahedron, but I need dragons! (see the posting "I need a squat, tailless dragon" for a picture).
