Looking for Victorian Column

Hi

I'm Looking for a cast alu Victorian column to use in a wine cellar. The pic attached shows the actual sample from the supplier, 2875mm high. If anyone can help with a similar column that I can adjust it will be great.

Regards Andre

Have you checked the 3D Warehouse ...??
You can also find some nice models at FormFonts ...

I hope this is similar enough for you. Found it on the web as 3ds model, converted to su model. It's not perfect, I used cleanup plug-in from Thomas, but as you see it renders pretty fine.
Cheers!

I knocked this up in about an hour as an interpretation of your drawing.
I kept it as simple as possible, with only Bezier curve and Extrude by rails plug-ins.
Hope it helps.

Resistor,it's very simple, just import a 3ds model, select the model and use the cleanup tool. This is the link for this wonderful plug-in. Watch the tutorials!
