Small checkerboards vanish into mush at flying altitudes.
True.. I like the bigger squares, maybe 2 inch so not so busy looking. To me anyway.

And actually, so do big squares.
On small things like model airplanes, the color can't be identified by the human eye after something like 400-600'. They go to grayscale. All checkerboarding does for you is make the grayscale result a lighter gray.
