help to understand making process

[Willy Tschager]

Ok, I think I've done everything you told me. I flipped the triangles, but I'm unsure whether I should focus on the concave/convex triangles for parts covered with the pattern, or if I need to view the entire figure to identify any triangles that need flipping.

* Deciding to flip or not you should always look at the faces surrounding your pair. For example isolated the eye look fine. Inserted into the body it is my feeling that these:

3 82 -1.899 -32.322 -14.681 -4.416 -32.773 -13.12 -3.331 -31.114 -14.748
3 82 -1.899 -32.322 -14.681 -2.097 -33.857 -13.395 -4.416 -32.773 -13.12

should be flipped.

* The header of the main part is not correct:

0 Animal Kitten stading - body
0 Name: 80686.dat
0 Author: dario fol [<dariofol>]
0 !LDRAW_ORG Subpart UPDATE

0 BFC CERTIFY CCW

0 !HISTORY 2024-01-11 {LEGO Instructions App} Original part shape
0 !HISTORY 2024-01-15 [Philo] File preparation for LDraw Parts Tracker

the correct header looks like this:

0 Animal Kitten Stading
0 Name: 80686.dat
0 Author: Dario Fol [dariofol]
0 !LDRAW_ORG Unofficial_Part
0 !LICENSE Licensed under CC BY 4.0 : see CAreadme.txt

0 BFC CERTIFY CCW

0 !HISTORY 2024-01-11 {LEGO Instructions App} Original part shape
0 !HISTORY 2024-01-21 [dariofol] File preparation for LDraw Parts Tracker

A well build header is essential. Put as much attention to it as you do for the mesh.
