Electra with 60 units
Designed by David Mitchell
The geometric shape is Rhombicosidodecahedron...
20 triangles, 30 squares and 12 pentagons...
This is one of the 13 Archimedian solids.
I was looking for the name of the Polyhedron. I searched for sometime, finally found in Meenakshi's book, Marvelous modular origami..
Making units is very simple. Assembly is not as scary as the name. It's fairly simple once we understand the pattern.
I took almost 6-7 hours. I was half way and realised things were not falling into place. I had made a mistake.. It was little confusing. I had to rework a little bit to get to the right track. But it's not a difficult model... Totally loved the process.
I have used Tuttles @tuttleorigami milky way papers. To make the units i divided the 6 inch to 3 inch square units.
