Six Irregular Dodecahedra: 3-Fold Axis

This is my 2nd version of this model. It is much improved from the first version in that there isn't nearly as much unwanted tension/bending between the edges.

 

The angles and lengths were changed to make it more irregular than the previous version (each dodecahedron is more oblate). As a result, the model has a much deeper "crust", giving it a much sharper look.

 

Also this one was folded on a much smaller scale than the previous version (approx half the dimensions).

 

I'm satisfied with this result, and don't think I'll be making any more changes to it.
