Summary

In this chapter, we learned what nodes are, how they work, and how they can be used to create some simple textures. We also talked about some of the most important nodes to get a feel for what they can do and how they work. We will use this knowledge to create more sophisticated textures later and build high-quality materials.

In Chapter 3, Mapping Images with Nodes, we will learn how textures are displayed on objects and how we can place textures on more sophisticated objects.
