 Hello, Timo and Sébastien !

 Replying to [comment:18 tjolivet]:
 > As for the tikz code, I am sure that it compiles fine (with a normal
 texlive installation). The \newcommand is nice because then one face is
 reprensented by a small line instead of three bulky ones. It could be
 ''two'' lines, but in tikz there is no other way to specify an RGB color
 than using \definecolor, which takes one more line. (Something similar to
 `black!30!green` for RGB would be the great...)

 I agree with you that the `\newcommand` makes the output much lighter. On
 the other hand, it doesn't compile correctly... I tried it with a normal
 Latex distribution, but I had to move the three `\newcommand` statements
 outside the tikzpicture environment.

 I might have a solution that would avoid using them, but which is not as
 neat. You could use
 {{{
 \foreach \x / \y / \z / \c1 / \c2 / \c3 in {...}
 }}}
 and replace the `...` by the appropriate very long list of parameters for
 each face and then put in the body of the `\foreach` command the 3-lines
 Latex statement that draws the face with these parameters.

 What do you say? Do you understand what I'm talking about (I don't feel my
 explanation is very clear)?
