### Example: Flake Random Color


This example shows the **Flake Random Color** parameter used with a **Ramp **map with Type set to **U Ramp** with five randomly set colors. Flake Density is set to 20; Flake Size is set to 0.4; Flake Scale is set to 0.5; Flake Color is set to white (255,255,255).

### Example: Flake Orientation


This set of images demonstrates the effect of the Flake orientation parameter. Note how lower values produce flakes more aligned with the surface normal, so that light is reflected more uniformly. Higher values produce more random flakes leading to more variation in the flake illumination.

### Example: Flake Density


This set of images shows the effect of the Flake density parameter. Note how larger values produce more flakes, but do not change the flake size. For this example, Flake Scale is set to 0.110 and Flake Size is set to 0.400.

**Density** = 10

### Example: Flake Scale


This set of images demonstrates the effect of the Flake scale parameter. Note how lower values scale the entire flake structure. For this example, Flake Density is set to 5 and Flake Size is set to 0.4.

**Flake Scale** = 2

### Example: Flake Size


This set of images shows the effect of the Flake size parameter. Note how larger values make the individual flakes larger, but do not change their count. Flake Scale is set to 1, the default value.

**Flake Size** = 0.75
