Is there any interest in improving the minifig heads by using torus primitives? For some of the patterned heads, where there is printing on the curved section, it would be somewhat difficult, but most of them could be fixed pretty easily. Andy 0 (...)

(...) I can't comment, because I don't have that torus file (t04o6250). However, the stuff left makes it look like the posted dat isn't correct even with the file. (Some of the geometry that I would have expected to be replaced by the torus is still (...) (20 years ago, 1-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Here's the same file with the torus primitive included. The left over quads you're seeing are part of the subfile, 3626bs01.dat. I didn't do anything about that, since this is just an example. 0 FILE 3626bp01.dat 0 Minifig Head - Stud Hollow 0 (...) (20 years ago, 2-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Yes, I'd say using torii when possible would be good. I don't think we need to start making fractional torus primitives to fill in gaps, but easy improvements are worth doing. To make really beautiful heads, you should model the parts directly (...) (20 years ago, 7-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
