Hey, Russ..Re: editing light & dark edges

[+sophocles]

Your tutorial about

Remove light\ dark edges between meshes like gear doors etc

was a godsend; I've finally got the shading right on the engine doors of the NF-5a!!  Excellent find!!!

Before .. ugly as F****

After the edit normals modifier "Now you see them .."

Now you don't..

Yep its a good tool....ive started redoing stuff with it like hawk etc....always annoyed me the time taken to do a clean model and shitty shading from normals screws it...not now eh lol.

also saves having to meshsmooth a local area around doors etc,to get a smooth transition between edges.
