Roof Shingles Material

[Sabrina M]

Hi, noticed that some of the buildings that were created off-screen have a different material that looks like simple shingles on the roof. I’ve been looking for a simple solution but would love to know how to make this material. Thank you.

Hi Sabrina @SlowSnail ,

That’s outside the scope of this Course, but:

You can Append the Material and look at the Node Tree. The Pattern is made here:

Note the repeating  of the same Nodes  (Offset via the Vector Math > Add Node).

Look at what each Node does (what goes in and what comes out). Try to analyse what goes on. Work from left to right and use the Node Wrangler > SHIFT+CTRL+LMB shortcut to connect the outputs to the Materiial Output.

Then, if you still have (a) question(s), come back and ask again, but try to be specific in what you don’t understand, because we don’t know what you know and don’t know 😉

Thank you!
