I'm curious.
As Architects why are sculptures not part of our collective toolkit?
We have problems because structures and furniture doesn't decay and other issues, but there are some things that seem like they should be in our purvue and aren't.
Specifically, sculptures and paintings.
Now I can as easily see them in the purvue of the Master Artisan, but either way. Why are these items not available to us?
I know that paint kits are becoming available (I have been unable to get the components to construct one yet. *sigh*), but sculptures are an entirely different matter.
I am discussing large scale sculptures that would be considered architectural (other than Gungan Heads). These seem appropriate to our profession and fit into the existing kit of community buildings and furnishings.
It is also a frustrating situation that I cannot place gardens, fountains etc. to be able to get a good read on them visually and spatially. I know they can be dropped inside a house, but even a large house doesn't have the space to get a really good sense of what you are looking at.
I would love to be able to create sculptures for sale as part of my tool kit as an architect. These would be structures where the lack of decay makes sense and actually benefits us.
If I have missed something and there is a way for us to manufacture these items (with the exception of Gungan heads, of course) please enlighten me.

There are a few statues available, not just the Gungan Head. You have to go to like the last or next to last page of the crafting process starting from the Gungan Head and then you get a drop down to select the specific type of statue. It is not intuitive.
And the statues are mostly large and meant for out doors.Scultures meant specifically as indoor decoration would be nice.

Doh...
Boy do I feel dumb. Less than an hour after I posted that message I discovered the drop down. I guess I had never experimented on the statues.
Thanks for the help. =)
