Re: Polycount to Professors: Ngons Are Useful!
A ngon is a polygon, with a number of sides that is hard to determine. A 5 sided polygon is a hexagon but if you have trouble counting above 4 you can call it a ngon, just like a octagon is a ngon. The n in ngon is technically a variable. n could equal 3 or 3 million. 3-gon, 4-gon, 5-gon, ngon. After about 5 sides you just… -

Hi Malcolm, Thanks for the suggestions as always. 1.Sure, that sounds like a good idea. I will see what I can do. 2. You can already do this actually.

Re: New Artist Looking for Honest Feedback

Re: When to buy a pc and what to buy (big budget)
For a top of the line Boxx workstation you are looking at 6,000 bucks :) I think you can get a really decent workstation for 1,500 euros though.
