There's always the very likely chance that you could do it appropriately in mesh with a much better LI than that, not just in the basic model but also because you have different options of complexity for different LOD and the lowest LOD is usually the most influential with regard to LI.  Also, you can specify a physics shape during mesh upload and do that wrong and you'll see very high LI.

As for texturing, it's a LONG time since I last textured a sculpt in blender but once you've done the sculpt map, you should just be able to save the image out as .jpg or .tga.

Visit my shop in-world. It's in my picks.

Find the teleport to the classroom and take it.

I have a tutorial on how to create textures for sculpted prims, and some supplies in the big vase.  You should be able to start the tutorial by touching the display screen.
