hey all...

I've been wrestling with this for a few days now, and have finally admitted defeat. haha PLEASE someone help me. :)

I'm trying to make myself a diamond. I could easily do a cone shape with a texture, but I was hoping there might be another way to 1) make one that's smaller than a .01x.01x.01 cone and 2) have a "raised" top surface.

I...haha...don't think I'm making much sense. Basically, I'm looking for ANY help anyone might be able to give me on shaping small prims into gemstones.

I've worked for awhile now with the larger prims...houses, furniture, etc, with no problem. But jewelry and tiny prims is a whole new world...it's a challenge, but frustrating. I don't want to give up yet...!!

hehe...thanks in advance :)

Use a sphere, dimple it on one side to your liking (will create a cone with a convex top). It can be very small ;).
