Stylized roof tiles - how to model them?

Peppek1993

Hey guys, a while ago I started working on a stylized cart and I'm having a huge trouble figuring out how to do the roof tiles on it.


Here's what I already have




Here's a reference picture I'm working with


I want to do that  stylized look where the tiles have different shapes and angles etc but I have no idea how to start doing it.

What would be the best approach here?

The best approach is to start trying things out. Get your hands dirty. Make mistakes. Throw things out and start over.

All the while, post your progress here and ask for assistance.

What you can do is make a plane, create the tiles in substance designer, then model some pieces sticking out to give it that 3D look. That is what I did for one of my projects that had the same look
It gives you some good practice with Substance Designer if you are not confident in it.
