Let's make the following stars. 
Let's make a star from the following steps.
#A star rotates horizontally.
1) Make the form where I saw the star from width from ROKURO.
2) Make a stellar form from TUCHI.
3) Upload at a second life.
In order to make a stellar form, I prepared the following background image. 
Because a lower half is used when using a mirror function for a transverse direction, the star is arranged so that it may become symmetrical by the upper and lower sides.
Two black lines are drawn in order to decide the position in which the peaks gather up and down. The point that two lines cross is the peak of the upper bottom.
Let's make a star.
The star has ten vertexes which constitute a stellar form, and a form where those vertexes gathered a front and behind that one. Therefore, it looks like the diagram of cards.
Choose New – Sphere – 64x16 on the File menu.
Set Level of Detail on the View menu as Near.
Set Grid on the View menu as 1.
As shown in the following figure, lay three control points on top of one, and arrange them. 
As shown in the following figure, choose the control point of yellow area. 
Right-click the edit pane and choose Magnet.
Choose Mirror 04-GG from 00-G3 on the Edit menu. 
Click the XY button of the displayed dialog. 
Then, as shown in the following figure, the control point of yellow area was rearranged by lower area. 
TUCHIタブをクリックします。
Click the XY button at the lower left of the edit pane.
Choose Load Background on the View menu and specify the prepared background image.
Let's arrange a lower half, in order to use a mirror function later.
Let's make the control point of a lower half into six vertexes.
Please be sure for the control point of blue or red to be included and to make in one vertex.
Choose the control point of the yellow area of the following figure.
Right-click the edit pane and choose Magnet.
Choose the control point of the yellow area of the following figure.
Right-click the edit pane and choose Magnet.
Choose the control point of the yellow area of the following figure.
Right-click the edit pane and choose Magnet.
Choose the control point of the yellow area of the following figure.
Right-click the edit pane and choose Magnet.
Choose the control point of the yellow area of the following figure.
Right-click the edit pane and choose Magnet.
Choose the control point of the yellow area of the following figure.
Right-click the edit pane and choose Magnet.
As shown in the following figures, choose the group-ized control points by range specification, and arrange on a stellar vertex.
Let's complete a star using a mirror function.
Choose Mirror 00-GG from 00-FG on the Edit menu.
Click the ZX button of the displayed dialog.
Then, as shown in the following figure, the lower half has been arranged in the upper half. Please choose the control point shown in yellow by range specification, and adjust a position.
As shown in the following figure, arrange a central control point on the crossing of two lines with a black background image.
Choose Maximize on the Edit menu.
Let's check a setup of preservation before saving a sculptmap file.
Choose Setup on the File menu.
Set TGA Save Size to 64x64.
Check Copy Protection by transparent.
Check by the coordinate system of Second Life.
Click the OK button, if it checks.
Choose Save on the File menu and save a sculptmap file.
Let's upload a sculpt-map file to the in-world.
When you upload a sculpt-map file, be sure to choose Upload Image on the File menu.
It costs 10L$ to upload one Sculpt-Map file.
And check by preview and check Use lossless compression. 
Apply a sculptmap file to an object and adjust size.
A Star is completed.
