The Checks procedural texture is useful for making stripes, checkerboard, and grid patterns (figure 1)
Figure 1: The Checks texture connected to a Diffuse materialUsed for dull, non-reflecting materials or mesh emitters.'s DiffuseAmount of diffusion, or the reflection of light photons at different angles from an uneven or granular surface. Used for dull, non-reflecting materials or mesh emitters. pin
Transform - Positions, scales, and rotates the surface texture.
Projection - Sets how the texture projects onto the surface.
