Help on Modelling Fish Scale Array

I am trying to model a fish scale array pattern as a film like structure. but unfortunately i cant able to create the overlapping surfaces. I figured that I need  some degree of tilt between the individual scales and the base.Attached pictures of what iam getting and what I need.  Help me to get the desired output.

If you have access to the additive manufacturing extension it is possible to create a custom lattice that will greatly simplify modeling this type of pattern. I would do some investigation on that method if you have the extension available.
