Building objects in Second Life

Today Dale went trough a short tutorial with us on how to buld objects in Second Life.
He has shown us how to build a spinning globe by applying textures to it. We all have build a spheer and applyed a world map texture to it. The final piece is a spheer that has being build from the standard primitive objects in the Second Life build menue. The actual sphere is not spinning its the texture on it that's spinning that gives an ilusion of the spinning globe.

Now that we now how to apply textures, my next project was to build a gun and texture it. Unfortunatly i have lost the gun before takeing any pictures of it because i didn't save it in my object list. Bugger! Building complicated objects in Second Life can be very difficult because of the camera angles and also because of the luck of manipulation of vertecies and polygons.
Other than that good fun. :)
