I have a very specific question on an item I'm building. I'm modeling a 1930's fashioned building that has greek influenced columns with "corinthian style capitals" on top. I have been at it for hours trying to figure out how to go about building them properly, and so far everything I have tried has turned out undesirable. I was thinking of just using a cylinder and mapping an image onto it then applying a bump, however, I'm sure this method would appear very CG and not realistic enough. I've come to realize that I have never had to build a corinthian capital in all the years I've been modeling and I am pretty much at a stalemate here. Has anyone on this forum ever built one of these and if yes how did you go about completing it successfully? Below are two images of one of the models I started. I feel its not constructed properly, but I may be on the right track.
Thanks,
Chris
