Recursive polygon subdivision, part 2

Here the seed polygon (40-gon) is recursively cut using sweeping perpendicular lines and the resulting number of polygons varies greatly depending on the position of these cuts (combined with a configured minimum poly target area). The area of each polygon is mapped to a color from a predefined gradient.
