Wow, that's a really interesting way to look at 3D objects. I think that for many, including myself this workflow is a bit counterintuitive for complex models, but like you said, it's certainly useful for a specific niche.

Thanks ! It's a weird way my brain has been wired since using autodesk Alias and falling in love with the workflow haha

Something else that can "kinda" work is if you select the whole model, then go to mesh->Normals->Average->Face. This uses a different algorithm to calculate the normals and can often sort out a lot of shading issues on this type of model. But the results you get will depend on how you create your models topography, since I am generally making things for games for a car I tend to avoid subdivsurf to (try to at least xD) keep the polygon counts lower.
But the way you showed in the video is pretty cool and not something I have seen before so thanks for sharing :)

Thanks for the insight !
