Blender Day 31 : Blender31 duplication and well example

Let's make the tile for the rooftop. The technique for making the tile is actually quite simple. We just need to use the basic cube shape. So, let's add a cube here. Alright, the cube is in place. As you know, you can create about 80% of objects using the cube. So, let me position it correctly. There we go, now you can see it clearly. Let's move it here on the Y-axis. Perfect. Now, compare this with the reference dot here. You can change the direction and scale it along the X-axis. Maybe just scale it along the Y-axis. Okay, press Enter. Now, you can see that we have some uncovered space. I'm going to scale it along the Y-axis to make it longer and cover that space. Great, now it looks good. Let's move it up a little bit. Alright, let's start working on the second tile. Grab it and rotate it. Maybe put it here and rotate it up a bit to create more space, as we'll need another tile here. Something like this, perhaps. Okay, once you think it looks good, you can apply the changes. As you can see, if you use the "7" key, you can see that there is some space uncovered. Let's scale it along the Y-axis to make it longer and cover that space. Looks good. Move it here. Now, you can duplicate it. Once you're satisfied with the first tile, just press Shift + D to duplicate it. Now, you can make it longer or shorter to make it look less uniform. Scale it along the X-axis, and maybe make it a bit longer. Scale it along the Y-axis to make it slightly larger than the original one. Great. Now, you can duplicate the original tile here to create a jig effect. Shift + D to duplicate it, and place it here. Shift + D again to duplicate it. Repeat this process as needed. Maybe this is too much, so let's cancel that. Undo with Control + Z. Alright, let's manually place the tiles. Press "7" to enter top view. Shift + Click to select three of them. Shift + D to duplicate. Move it to this spot. Shift + Click to select three of them again. Shift + D to duplicate. Move it to this spot. Repeat this process as needed. Alright, let me check it first. If it looks good, I'll duplicate all of them and place them on every pole. Okay, this is looking pretty good. A well-made tile for the rooftop.
