Hi Nate,

Thanks for your answer, will give it a try.

I saw the examples that you have in your blog, they are really nice.
Did you generate them using the steps that you explained me before? I
would love to learn more about these examples, would you mind giving a
description of them? Especially the tessellation tower is what I'm
thinking about!  :)

Cheers,
Juan
