Hi Bill, As an addition to what Ted said, keep in mind that using the Force Two-sided option or using 2-sided materials are going to add to your rendering time. You'll have to decide how much time you are going to spend with a model to determine whether or not it is economical to go in and unify faces manually. Paul S.

Paul, Thanks to both you and Ted for filling me in on the 2-sided normals bit. At the moment, the model is pretty simple, so unifying the normals is not a big deal. I need to make sure that as I make the model more complex, though, that everything is created properly. Thanks again. Bill
