      Probably the best way would be to use a texture instead of using geometry to create that pattern.

        I guess it also depends on if it's to be rendered or straight SU output.

        If you see a toilet in your dreams do not use it.

          If you need it 3d in SU maybe you can also try this plugin . You need a well contrasted zenithal image or you can draw it by yourself in an image editor and then save it as BMP as I did in the very quick and rough example below. Be careful use a low resolution bitmap and also the generated model will be a bit high poly.
