#### Color List Pigments

There are three color list patterns: `checker`, `hexagon` and `brick`. The result is a pattern of solid colors with distinct edges rather than a blending of colors as with color mapped patterns. Each of these patterns is covered in more detail in a later section. The syntax is:

COLOR_LIST_PIGMENT:
`
  pigment{brick
` [COLOR_1`,` [COLOR_2]] [PIGMENT_MODIFIERS...] `}` | `
  pigment{checker
` [COLOR_1`,` [COLOR_2]] [PIGMENT_MODIFIERS...] `}` | `
  pigment{hexagon
` [COLOR_1`,` [COLOR_2`,` [COLOR_3]]] [PIGMENT_MODIFIERS...] `}`

Each COLOR_n is any valid color specification. There should be a comma between each color or the `color` keyword should be used as a separator so that POV-Ray can determine where each color specification starts and ends. The `brick` and `checker` pattern expects two colors and `hexagon` expects three. If an insufficient number of colors is specified then default colors are used.
