Origami Creations - Pentagonal Dodecahedron

As I was checking my own flickr account, I was able to scan through a modular origami expert from Germany by the name of Dirk Eisner.  He makes a lot of cool geometric modular shapes.  Look at his account here and be mesmerized.

I sent him a message and he was kind enough to respond and give me his diagram to make the Pentagonal Dodecahedron.

Great shaping and symmetry

I thoroughly enjoyed making this piece.  But the bigger challenge is yet to come ... to make the four (4) interlocking dodecahedron.  Yes, four (4) of these and interconnected.

Hope I am able to succeed in my challenge ... till the next blog ...

Origami Creations - Adorable Geometric Shape Modulars

I haven' done any modular origami for a long while now.  

The completed geometrical shape figure fascinates me a lot as it has a classic vibe that will stand the test of time. 

Here is one.  This is called the Penultimate Dodecahedron (12 equal pentagonal faces) by the pre-eminent american origamist Robert E Neale and requires 30 basic units.

Adorable

Impressive, huh?  No glue is required for this model so I love this design very much.

It is really easy and below is the tutorial:

Enjoy and have a great week!
