Looks cool. I teach 3D modelling. I would love to see the meshes this approach produces. I'm gonna guess that they are poorly topologized. Agreeable topology enables ease of texturing, editing, animation and dozens of other things. If

Not only that, but poorly performing students are more likely to be male, whilst excellent students are more likely to be female. This is true across almsot all disaplines.

Great asset. However, the 3d viewer is not equal to that of sketchfab, which currently hosts a number of public collections e.g. natural history museum of Vienna https://sketchfab.com/NHMWien Using the inspect model feature

Glad you said this. I have delivered cpr twice: once to my lecturer at school, the other to a stranger in the street. Both times they died. The experience of seeing people freak out when they saw their loved one dying completely devastated

The name was changed by the ruling Junta, for whom there is little love. I can't speak for everyone in Myamar/Burma, but the many people I know there are entirely happy to be referred to as Burmese.

Bruegel was perhaps the first realist. By which I mean he painted people in the costume of the day and not in classical robes. I explain realism to my students as one of the primary 'atom bombs' of visual art: an idea that permen

FYI... the golden value in FG.BG separation is the single pixel bleed between the two. Unless the new background is of the same value as the old, then this would show up as a light or a dark fringe. At erode filter can remove this in hard-e

You are right. I forgot about Mari. It is now the only app which supports animation of textures over time and 16k textures. A real gem, but super expensive.
