I received a private reply to my question, included below. My response could not be delivered, so I'm posting it here. Hmm, that would work. Thanks for the info and idea. They could just be black and white, 2-color. Since I'm so new to this, examples are really helpful. Are there any examples on the internet that you know of that do such a thing (referring to "subdivide the faces ... and color the triangles")? ---------------------- Original Reply and Message: --------------------- > mathematica doesn't do "texture mapping" well, at least up to 5.2. > Maybe in 6 they added it.
