      At my wits end trying to find a texture that looks something like the attached. There's plenty of roof tiles but can't find any that are of a similar colour. Happpy to make the bump map myself but would really appreciate it if anyone can point me towards a reasonable (and preferably seamless) texture.

      Many thanks in hope.

          Here's one I quickly bodged together from your image - edited in Gimp to remove perspective and repetitive tiling... You could improve it by editing the image a bit more...redland_rosemary_clay_classic_plain_roof_tile_smooth_finish_Light Mixed_Brindle_81.PNGredland_rosemary_clay_classic_plain_roof_tile_smooth_finish_Light Mixed_Brindle_81.zip

              TIG, was the PP work easy to do? My PP skills are ok but you've done a really good job for such a 'bodge job'!

                There are many good tutorials on the net for making tileable textures.
                Once I unskewed the view, I then copied it into four, with mirroring and dodged/ducked/smudged/cloned/stamped/blurred/sharpened/etc/etc areas to avoid it looking 'repeated'...
                I recently posted some links to such tut's so I felt almost obliged to do it myself for a change to show it was relatively easy... particularly with something like a roof the repeat is likely to be not so noticeable... πŸ˜‰
