The screenshots go in reverse order. First I made a big box on top of 4 cylinders to create a basic body. Then I added more cylinders to create feet. I then added a ball as a head and drew eyes and whiskers. I colored the lion red for some reason.
The first shot is my attempt at creating a sphere. I had to look at some tutorials online to figure out how to do it properly. Later I used a series of boxes to create a boxy looking body. I added feet and some color details in the third shot.
The shots above are some of the friends I tried to make on Second Life. It was easier making Immersive Education friends because they seemed more willing to help a fellow student. Some even contacted me and followed me to class. The next shot is of me using the sandbox.
