No surprise: You rotate /the object/ a certain value around the y-axis, 
apply the pigment, rotate the object back the same value. You have not 
rotated /the pigment/ itself.

However, if the pigment is a slope pattern (along y-axis I suppose) I do 
not expect much to happen if you rotate it around the y-axis in any case.
