Creating "light" terrain in AC3D

Hi, all!
I've just had to create a terrain object in AC3D, and I did it using contour lines and nothing but plain standard AC3D tools. In itself the technique has nothing very new or very special, but as it can be quite useful whenever the polygon count must be kept to a minimum, I thought it might be helpful to produce a short tutorial.
If you are interested, here it is: http://www.tvi-sarl.com/AC3D/Terrain.html
Cheers,
Thierry
