I feel so foolish. I've just worked it out. It's the material scaling / mapping.

I've used 3ds Max for many years and coming over to SU has thrown me completely.

It feels so peculiar. Nothing makes sense anymore!! AAaahhh!!

Hi Gaieus,

Thanks for the response.

Have attached a new test.
It seems like it's not the model, but the actual texture / material I'm applying.
The orange image works, the rainbow one does not.

Any ideas?

Hello Everyone!

Please could anyone explain how this effect has been achieved?

I've tried to replicate but when I map the a texture onto individual circles it applies the texture to each circle and not as a group.

Have attached image.

Thanks for any help.
