The Sphinx did originally have color. Blue and Yellow on the head-dress. You can still faintly see the colors. (I'm a big Egyptian history freak)
It would be kinda cool to see the statue colored with one of the actual outfits the villagers wear.

Transparency is possible, easily, but to get the statue to truly look like glass, or emerald, or whatever, you would need to do original work; surface texture and reflections and different on glass and anything transparent; if it had the surface texture of stone, the light would be so diffracted you couldn't see through it anyway. It's a much harder task than simple recoloring, where I could make a color-adjustment layer, then lasso-select a portion of the statue and cut that part of it out of the color adjustment mask. One mask for each color would complete it. The same would probably have to be done for the statue laying on the ground, as well.
In that way, I could easily recolor it even in multiple colors without worrying about overlap, and preserving LDAW's original design.

As soon as I read the wood 'Glass' I immediatly thought of Ice Sculptures. That could work if TunaPuzzler did the Ice Age for VV3 like she did VV2. (if you haven't seen it, you should check it out. It is amazing!)
