So here's one of my latest projects on SL, a full-sized Lugia AVatar, made from almost all Sculpted Prims :3 Currently working on the Animations for it, but other than that it's almost ready to go ^^

*Chuckles* They introduced "Sculpted Prims" into SL a couple months ago, which allow you to make 3D shapes in a program such as Blender or zBrush or the like, and Import those ahapes into SL to be used to make objects instead of using basic Sphere and Cubes :3 It's allowed for some VERY detailed Avatars when combned with pre-baked textures
There's only one SecondLife Server (Not considering the Teen Server, that is), just go to the Downloads Section of http://www.secondlife.com , make yourself an account and fiddle with the controls X3 There's a few tutorials to show you how to get around, but there can be a big learning curve on working the game at first, just to warn...There's alot of furry places to hang out though, such as the Furnation areas
Well, in the build window, you might notice you can change what shape you're using after you've created it, and you might notice one of the options is "Sculpted"...This feattures uses a "Sculpt Map" texture you've ulpoaded into SL (Usually looks like a sorta rainbowy texture) that tells SL what shape the prim will become...You can create Sculpt Maps in several different 3D Model Programs :3
I use zBrush,if you want some tips on using it (Getting it will be up to you though *Cough*torrent*COUGH*), then here's the video I used as a tutorial on learning the basics :3

o_o i'd love to help and make some tweaks on your lugia if you want me to! I've been drawing lugia for MANY years >.<
Or is it able to be purchased? Or anything? =D i'd love one myself and have had modeling experience of modifying avatars for a while now. Would enjoy helping, as like a collab. ^___^

Heh, unfortunately the process isn't going so well. I've been having trouble rigging up the neck to move right. At the moment it still looks like it's rather stiff and doesn't really bend well with the body, but it's still in the works~
Coincidently I ran into someone recently who was also making a Mesh Lugia, so you might see one on the market sooner than I finish mine~
