    use the texture, i can't remember off the top of my head, {something. Then func_wall or func_illusion with clip, and rendermode solid.

    Do you mean it looks like it has depth due to that shadow on each pole at the top?

    Thats in the texture itself, not the actual map

    optical illusion since this entire railing is built up out of 1 brush which has been turned into a entity, with the settings

    Texture mode: solid
    Fx amount: 255

    <span style='color:gray'>[edit]
    To make it look like that just play arround with the placing of the texture itself</span>

    this is how it should look like in the editor (it seems you only built the top part of the railing).
    And don't worry about the blue parts they will be invisible ingame if you use the settings

    Rendermode: solid (hehe made typo in post before this one <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->)
    Fx amount: 255

    Ah HA! But... what about the top of the rail?

    EDIT: Nevermind, I got the hang of it.
