Defining materials

Now I want to build a material, and place it onto the surface of the flag.…Go ahead and select that flag, and I want to press the 5 key to see shading, and…I also want to press the 6 key, so that once I have a texture applied, I will see…it in the viewport.…To assign a new material, I'm just going to right-click, and choose Assign New Material.…My new material dialog pops up;…I don't need any highlights on this, so I'll use a Lambert shader, or LambertmMaterial.…The Attribute Editor opens automatically, and I've got Lambert2.…

Let me rename that, and I'll call this one flag1Lambert, and press Enter.…I'll just increase the Diffuse amount a little bit; let's say, a value of 0.95.…That will just make it render brighter.…And I want to drop a map into this Color channel.…I'll click here to create a new render node, and this going to be a file texture,…so I'll choose File.…Then in the Attribute Editor, I'll need to browse for that file, and it takes me…directly to my current project sourceimages, and I'll select that first flag…
