I made a custom tile over the weekend, for "Ruin" bases, where I'll chop this bad boy up into sections and have it buried under dirt and foliage.

Any feedback would be appreciated. This is a WIP until I cut it apart, but I wanted you guys to see the full tile before that.

As you can tell from the picture, I am cutting it down to the edge of the design.

Thanks

Wonderful. Wish I had the skill for that. I love it. Maybe someday I could get some practice time for it. All I would really say is to recast it as is and then cut the copies up for the individual bases so you don't have to resculpt it each time. That maybe your plan already, but I thought I'd just throw it out there.

Gotta use the skills you have, I mean, I could never have hand carved this without a template, so I designed it on my computer (Art Director has its perks) and went from there

Also I forgot to add a scale to this, its 1" x 1" (Design)

Any tips on how to make it look more like a real tile? Painting wise? Dirt, etc?

Here is an updated picture of the base, with the tile cut up to be "ruins"

I need to add a bit more flock in places, and I'm planning on making some vines to show overgrowth.

Any comments are welcome
