Hey guys, I recently read [Senocular’s tutorial](http://www.senocular.com/flash/tutorials/transformmatrix/) on the topic. I was just wondering if anyone knew a fix for the gap at the edges of the faces. Sometimes when rotating theres a white gap at the edges (on his example too) and I’m not sure how to fix it. Like here:

The best I’ve gotten is drawing lines at the edges so it’s a not so obvious, but that’s a little pain staking (don’t run both these sites at the same time):

Kind of disappointing cause when using masks I don’t have this problem.

Appreciate any suggestions (I’ve heard textured edges were possible), thanks! 🙂
