My favorite Vickie in a temple Is the Parthenon at the Acropolois in Athens, Greece (using doric columns) - but it's in such disrepair! I think there is a model of the Parthenon in a museum in NY of a reconstruction of it but I can't remember which museum. -TJ

Yes, those acanthus leaves are nicely done. Very graceful. :)

Certainly saves bandwidth if people don't download them because they don't have amapi (or can't be bothered to get it and install it just to be able to read these files) :(

Wowthey are the best i'v seen.I'm already planing scenes with then on it! Phantast there is a free version of amapi which is great for start,just search for it.I believe Amapi is the best free modeling programm I have try.

brycetech, I've made doric columns before but I fear the corinthian one may be beyond me to make for myself at present - I dounloaded both files anyway. I've got Amapi 5.15 that came with Carrara so I should be able to get some use out of these. Thank you, - TJ

There is a replica of the greek parthenon in Nashville, TN. It also includes the giant 40ft statue of Athena I believe.

How difficult is it to use Amapi for this purpose if you've never used it before? And question two is for macelene ... where the heck is this replica of the Parthenon in Nashville, I'd love to find that one ... I can drive down the street and look at it of course, but I'd like to have the model. :-)

An architect fellow named Yoric Could, when feeling euphoric, Display for selection Three kinds of erection: Corinthian, Ionic, and Doric. BT, these are way cool. Thanks!!

Sorry I don't remember, it has been several years since I was there. If you live in the area, check the yellow pages for Museaums. It had one inside. I remember I had trouble finding it. Macey

Ah thanks L.D. - next time I'm in Nashville(I seem to end up there every 40 years or so) I'll check it out. I'm sure that there was one in NY City as well, perhaps scaled down a little - wish I could find that website again. anyrate, I bet given time there'll be a full size one in Las Vegas, too - complete with slots, roulette and blackjack tables. - TJ

Just so you know, I don't mind the file, it gave me a chance to play with amapi. Thanks. You can also export in LWO then import into anim8tor to convert the file to OBJ. Seem to work better. Thank-you again. Tashar 59

so I sez "like the parthenon?"
and she sez "Yes only bigger - and newer and with those Corinitan Columns Brycetech made!"
so I says back "OK, but hey! Get some eyebrows"
At this point she just glares at me for a long while, her eyes narrowing like a cat focusing in on her prey - finally she blurts out "That's your fault!!!", and walks off in a huff.
So, BT it's not that I don't like the columns, but this is gonna take a while!!!

Sorry if my remarks were considered "punishment". Oh, and here's your Christmas present. And take this wrapping paper to wrap it up in - hey, don't expect me to do it! Seriously, though, I do have Amapi myself, but I find it very unintuitive to work with. Not a program I like.
