I need a model of a flashlight for my next picture, and I can't seem to find one anywhere. I've already looked on several sites. Also, I figured out parenting a spotlight to a cylinder(flashlight), but does anyone know if it's possible to make a "beam" of light coming from the flashlight? Any help or tips would be appreciated. Thanks, -Kage

If you have a picture I can make a model for you.

I don't know if you could get a "flash-light beam" (a la X-files) in Poser. You might have to render this in something like Bryce or MAX to achieve that effect. Paul

Well, I only have Poser, and a evaluation demo of PSP6. Ummm, I kind of REALLY poor right now. I guess I should've mentioned that before. -Kage

Try using the cylinder props, afew of those together I'm sure will make a flashlight. For the beam use another cylinder set to high ambient colour to make it glow. Add a graduated transparency map to indicate fall off. Just some ideas PhilC www.philc.net

Fasttrax has one. It's at www.chemicalstudios.com . Look under 3D MODELS and Misc 1.
