I was revisiting my tiled patterns and wondered if I could add some dimension to it. Here is what happened.
1) Put a tiled square onto the surface of an isometric cube.
2) Seemed interesting so I grabbed a few other tiles, a bit rough around the edges ...
3) I tried using just shading on the pattern to give some dimension.
4) And tried the same in colour but it didn't quite work...
5) ... it needed some background shading to help...
6) ...and here with flat pattern on shaded background
7) But it seemed most interesting when I offset the background. Three tones in the whole thing!
