04About this texture

Beaver tail tiles are typical of Central European villages, church roofs and old town houses, and their scalloped rows instantly say storybook. The colours run through salmon, coral and apricot terracotta with darker gaps between the tiles. Every row sits half a tile to the side of the one below, and the rounded ends are raised in the 20 mm height map, which gives the scalloped edge real shadow. The example scene shows it on a roof sloped at 35 degrees with a chimney and a weathervane.

Village houses, churches and town halls
Storybook and fantasy roofs
Garden walls with a tiled coping

Questions and answers

How do I orient the tiles on a roof?

Rows run horizontally along the eaves and the rounded ends point downhill. Unwrap each roof plane so V follows the slope, then the tiles overlap the way water would run off.

How many rows cover a 5 m roof slope?

At 14.4 cm visible per row a 5 m slope needs about 35 rows, which is 3.5 repeats of the 1.44 × 1.44 m tile.
