Any one with a pattern of a megaphone or knows where I can buy one? I have found one but I am looking for one that is a bit more dimensional (rounded and not so flat.)

Thanks in advance Mike

This is the style of megaphone that I need but (not to sound picky) I need it more 3 dimensional. I had bought a football pattern a while back and made a sign for a friends son (the pattern had a domed shape to it Like a real football) and now they want one like that for their cheerleader daughter. Can this one be made rounded or domed?

OK I will throw one in the ring. Made with Moi3d, revolve, true 3d shape. Taken into blender, and made into a bass relief, then sculpted in ZB, and imported into designer.

Thanks Tom, I am still working on the megaphone, as you can see in this image. When finished I will have it for sale on my site (if I get the results I want) Here it is in Moi3d. I plan on the one in top left to be the finished pattern.

Hey Eddie Let me know when your done. I want to buy the one on the top left. I would like to sell the carving to a local school by painting it chalkboard black or blue so they can write on them!
Thanks Eddie!

I have placed 2 megaphones for sale on my site and the one shared here in the shared area.
One for sale is for a school chalkboard, the other is a refined pattern I shared here. These can be found under sports.
Images are of the new patterns.

John Blender bass relief is the only way to get that type of a 3d model into a pattern, and not have it flattened out. You sure can not slice it. Now I admit I used zb to smooth then heighten it some afterwards.

Eddie The megaphone came out great and I painted it with chalkboard paint. Looks I'm ready for the game.
Thanks for your craftsmanship!
