4 sided faces
This is a really simple question, but it has frustrating me throughout the cartoon dog tutorial.
So far I have managed to sort out the following question in my own way, I would like to know how anyone else goes about sorting this situation as mine doesnt seem very efficient.
Quite often I end up up with a 3 / 5 / 6 side polygon, and no apparent way of stratening it out without splitting lots of other polygons.
I have attached an example, if anyone could explain how they would sort these situations out it would be very helpful.
Thanks,
Mark

the only issue is that your renderer [mental ray for maya] may only render subD with base mesh with quads only.
