Zhann - yes, this is a model; two, actually. One twisted to the left and one to the right, then imported one on top of the other and grouped together. Made in Shape Magic, a nifty inexpensive modeling program. Stopper is a Bryce object. I'll Email you the file if you like. Anyone else who wants it please IM me with your Email address. (Once again, gotta go to work so can't respond to your requests til evening...) Caution! Slow render times ahead! The image posted in the Bryce gallery took nearly 5 hrs to render on a 2 year old Dell. Happy rendering! Bec
