1. I created a plane and placed a picture of the Statue of liberty's torch and hand over the top. I then used the line tool to draw around half of the image. Then by adding the Lathe Modifier my torch object was made. I gave the torch a Turbo smooth but unchecked the smooth result to give the torch a harder edged structural look.
2. It wasn't to important to get all the small details of the torch in because the torch is meant to look like its been at the bottom of the sea for years.
3. Connecting the hand to the torch was very tricky indeed and it took ages to get it right. Each finger had to be rotated and lowered to look as if it was gripping the torch.

Is it possible to get this 3d model of liberty's torch so that I can print it on a 3d printer? You did a great job.
