Title: [WIP] Beginning to Tile
Post by: Gamer36 on November 22, 2013, 08:58:48 pm
Hello all,

I expect that many veterans of these forums have seen variations of the brick tile many hundred times. I am just starting out with tiling, and this brick tile is only one in many on the way. I am hoping to improve my skill with shading, losing "the grid" (of course, with bricks... you know :P), etc. These tiles will all be 32x32. Currently I have two brick tiles.

I am going to make a few more variations of the cracked tile, to be posted later. Not sure if I should keep the regular brick tile without any imperfections, I tried, but it ended up being very "griddy" and ideas on that front would be great.

Color Info: Mortar: 3 colors Brick: 2 colors

Here is a tiled version with 4x4 tiles.

C&C appreciated, don't worry about being too harsh!

usually, you don't get mortar where bricks have cracks. You still get brick, but deeper (and thus much darker).
