Question

Post by kmyerslp »

Does anyone know the name of this model? I made it so long ago, but never knew the name.

Thanks. I also made my own version of his "electra" using 60 modules. that is a Rhombicosidodecahedron. It also looks nice.

Right now im about halfway into making the 270 module buckyball. I'm cutting standard printer paper into 4 squares for the modules. 70 sheets of paper. =/ This thing is going to be huge. It will be around 2 and a half feet in diameter I'm guessing. After I finish this one I'll use my editted Phizz module and smaller pieces of paper to make it, hopefully it will turn out better. More pictures to come later after I add in the 32 modules I made while on break at work.
