it is just a small lantern i made in a minute or two but i dont know how to make it look better
any ideas would be cool i want to make a simple but decent-looking lantern
the only thing i can think of is maybe do something with the handle

Perhaps look at free modeling software like Blender, because you have more complexity to use more complex shapes, and could increase detail.
Also make sure you use a reference image, and focus on the details.

You could use blender to model better, and use the spotlight instance instead of a neon brick for there to actually be light

You can definitely use it with parts but it’ll be way too complex and laggy for the game if you planning to put a bunch around the game. As the others said using blender is a better option

I think you quoted the wrong part of my text
without pointlight:
with pointlight:
As you can see with the pointlight the part emits more light and gives a better look really making it look like a lantern., you can easily edit the properties too.
For the building part there are many plugins you can use if you want to upgrade to model but also not going out of roblox and only using roblox instances.
Some examples of building plugins:

This lantern looks good, but I recommend adding a connection from the bottom circle to the top circle, so there is support for the entire lantern. Otherwise, nice job on it!
You don’t have to import a blender model as a single mesh, blender is just much better for building models trust me.
Ok so I will add a rounded handle and support for the whole lantern thanks also i made it in a few minutes btw
