Still folding tessellations, but it takes time to fold the grids...... and sometimes I just want to fold something else...
Finally finished the transformation from my 'Connection 6' (photo on the right) into this 'Tessellation Btt-4'.
And also 'Tessellation Btt-3' is ready ;-))

If you want to see the progress of my "Butterfly"-molecule pattern, click here for the album, where you can see my other tessellations, based on this "Butterfly-molecule".

Folded from a white sheet of glassine, hexagon 33cm, grid 1:64

Nothing new for people who make tessellations, but I thought it would be nice, for those who don't fold, to give a little inside how basics forms can be altered into different shapes. It's a little exploring I started during the summer holidays ;-)
And also I get sometimes the request how the tessellations look like in real, not backlit, so here you are ;-)

Here you see two "different" tessellations, front (left) and backside (right), who are related to each other. They have been discovered by many people, so I call them "Basics".
I accidentally already altered one hexagon ;-))
It is very hard to explain the difference in words( sorry for that), but I do hope you see it.

Here you can see a backlit version. I folded the same patterns but with glassine, which gives such nice results, when backlit, than this paper.

Each folded from hexagon about 17cm, duo-color Kraftpaper, grid 1:32

If you are interested to see more, have a look at my tessellation album "Origami - Tessellation Progression".

Here you see two "different" tessellations, backlit. Front and backside are now crossed, instead of beside each other. I did this because in my eyes all sides are fronts sides ;-))
They have been discovered by many people, so I call them "Basics".

Each folded from hexagon about 17cm, glassine, grid 1:32

Here you can see "Basics", in real life, using the same patterns, but folded with different paper.

Nothing new for people who make tessellations, but I thought it would be nice, for those who don't fold, to give a little inside how basics forms can be altered into different shapes. It's a little exploring I started during the summer holidays ;-)

Happy weekend!

Different view looking at the "Basics" with purple glasses on ;-))
Happy Sliders Sunday!
