News: Modular Origami

Awesome. Such a great model. How long did it take you to figure out how to assemble it? I know it took me quite a while when I made one. This is pretty much the exact color scheme that I made mine a couple of years ago. I used all "metallic" card stock in blue, green, copper, bronze, and silver.

You can see mine here. Have you made any of the other polypolyhedra

Is there a how-to online? this is seriously beautiful

Ya is there

I am working on it :-)

Wow. Enough said.

one word: WOW

here is mine, I have an all black one on my desk now, here is an older one I made

I'm impressed. I haven't gotten too far. (only the basic modular polyhedra ... dodecahedron, etc.) You should round up all of your models in one post and post it to the corkboard. Or post step by step instructions of the above model, with photos... i really want to figure out how to make that one. :)

here are the original diagrams for the model written by the designer

other modulars I have done, this is a model from a few years back, it is from a British book, and was folded with a4 paper. finding the diagram has been a bit tricky and I havent seen it in ages.

tomoko fuse wrote a lot of books on making balls and 3ds models.
les pook wrote flexagons inside out,
lewis simon,bennet arstein, and rona gurkewitz: modular origami polyhedra

considering the list of books I have on just modular origami, I may write an article later on
