box {-4.999,4.999
  pigment {
    function {(floor(x)+floor(y)+floor(z))/3}
    colour_map{
      [0/3 rgb x]
      [1/3 rgb y]
      [2/3 rgb z]
      [3/3 rgb x]
    }
  }
}


The .999's are there to prevent the colour changes happening exactly on
a face or edge, which cause the pigment equivalent of coincident
surfaces.
