The two soccer ball candidates side by side. Personally, I don't think either one looks convincing, but when all you have to work with are squares and triangles, what else can you do but improvise?
Having discussed the geometry of the edge-based and face-based Sonobe Umulius Rectangula, we can now perform a side-by-side comparison. I tried to make the color schemes match as much as possible. Given the choice between the two of them, I think the face-based version looks better and offers the more satisfying fold.
I'd like to emphasize that in spite of having two opposing "styles" for assembling cubic structures, the Sonobe module is still an edge unit at heart. Geometrically, then, a 6-unit "cube" is not a cube at all--it is a tetrahedron. If you are not convinced of this, create a Sonobe "star" out of 12 units. Grab a black felt-tip marker and draw a bold triangle around the base of each of the 8 pyramids in the star. Then disassemble this star and put any 6 of its units together to make a cube. Go ahead. I'll wait.
What shape does the black outline make now? Are you surprised by this? I was!
The only reason 6-unit Sonobe "cubes" look cubic at all is because Sonobe triangles leave behind a right triangular pyramid "artifact" that you can point outward or inward. Learning to ignore this artifact and see the underlying geometry behind it was one of the greatest epiphanies that I have had so far in my exploration of modular origami.
The Umulius Rectangulum is nothing new, but to the best of my knowledge, I am the first person to create an Umulius Rectangulum using Sonobe modules. Now that you know the big secret, dear reader, I trust that you will be able to create your own cubic structures. In two different ways, no less.
Many teens do not see themselves in the faces of their father. The face they grew up around is the only face they recognize. Although, when a throwback photo is put side by side, the resemblance is uncanny.
The NFTS took home 7 out of 8 Postgraduate Awards at the 2015 Royal Television Society Student Awards - and here is Adam Layland (Sound), Manuela Lupini Pinzani (Editor) and David Pearce (Composer) from the film Side By Side, which won the Best Postgraduate Factual Award.
I wanted to debox a doll so badly today. I am having my dolly shelves moved soon so did not want to debox any of the other more fragile dolls, so the Spain Passport dolly came out.
Then I had to take some pics of her with the other Spain DotW. They are so different, to me they look like mother and daughter.
These flowers had been my subject for a few days while I explored macro photography. This is about as close as you can get with the W3 camera (and you'll notice that the right frame is focused on the flowers while the left is on the wall outside ...), so a next project will be to develop some stereo macro shots (a) with a modified 3D lens made by Panasonic and (b) with standard sequential L/R shots with appropriate separation.
Here I used Stereo Photo Maker to crop the stereo images to the format used in classic stereo cards.

But mostly THICK!

Left: (my Nenetl): Sunshine Holiday scalp that I dyed with "tangerine" RIT liquid.
Gave her a boil perm with about 7 med. size rollers, let it "sit" for about 3 days. Finger-fluffed, NO brushing.
Right: (my Ophelia): She came to me with a Rachel's Ribbon scalp. Do NOT like "mushroom bangs", and I felt the length was a bit cumbersome (still is to a degree) ...
Gave it a layered trim, and also same type boil perm ... 6-7 medium rollers, leave for 3 days. Finger-fluff only.

SCALP NOTES:
SUNSHINE HOLIDAY: I love this scalp, and I have two. I have attempted to RIT dye both. I have found that these scalps take ORANGE (I used tangerine), but they do NOT "take" any other of the colors I tried ... (liquid). I have seen others who have been successful with "fuschia", but that was not the case with my second SH scalp.
RACHELS RIBBON: LOVE the COLOR. Do NOT like the mushroom bangs. The length is very long, so I cut ours. I also noticed it is VERY sparse at the top (plug-wise), however, that *may* be due to the fact that I have tried to brush most of the "bangs" up and over, to minimize that "heavy bangs" look.
RECENT SCALP NOTES:
I have received several different scalps lately, and I don't know if it is "me" ... or "inferior manufacturing" or what ... but here are my observations:
NATASHA MOORE: I received a NM scalp (which I LOVE the color, and I LOVE the cut by Cakau) ... however, this one ALSO is VERY sparse at the top. I have to do a lot of "arranging" of my Qupid's hair so the scalp does not show through.
SAFFY: Okay, I bought my Saffy encore from the bay. "used". When she came to me, I knew she was the "real deal", she is very heavy, her face was perfect, but I was a bit "disappointed" with the "strangeness" of her hair. DUE to the fact that a lot of the Saffys I see here on flickr, have nice, THICK curls ... my girl does not. WHICH has ONLY LATELY made me believe, perhaps the person did a "switch" on me, and I have a "fake Saffy" scalp???? Is there such a thing? I only started in Blythe World in 2011, so I am not a "pro", and I wasn't around during most of the Blythe Takara issues ... but this is just MY personal observation with MY Saffy scalp.
FACTORY: My Ingrid has a scalp which is NOT fake hair, it is NOT mohair ... it is VERY much like "human hair", not kidding. It is not shiny and "plastic-y" ... and it is not sparse ... but very thin (which I do like). I have not seen a Blythe release with this type hair, so for sure, she is in that "MYSTERY" category.
FACTORY: MY Zabrina (who IS the Saffy e. base ... has the factory full, lush, AWESOME scalp. Just perfect.)
SBL: My Prudence Peach has her SBL Mademoiselle Rosebud scalp (dyed and custom cut by 'Blythe Rescue Mission') ... and again, another PERFECT scalp. No sparseness... THICK and FULL and just AWESOME.
BORDER SPIRIT: My LiLa Lynn came to me with an already-cut BS scalp. The color is VERY light lemony-yellow, but I find THIS ONE is also VERY sparse at the top! (again, perhaps this is due to MY not being a fan of "heavy plastered-down straight bangs", so I try to make them less bulky by pulling them UP and off her forehead ...)
ADG: I think it is a WELL known fact that ADG hair sucks. I think her hair ONLY stays in good condition if you LEAVE HER in the box. After that, forget about it. THUS, my Hollister's and Nenetl's total scalp replacements.

FACT: MY PERSONAL PREFERENCE: I like my girls' hair "messy and tousseled" ... I am not a fan of the "plastered down mannequin look" ... just not my preference. That being said, I do NOT like the constant "hairs in the face" when I am doing a photoshoot! hahaha :)

My results with the re-touching tutorial on Dean White's site: www.enigma-photos.com/ . The original image is Dean's and is linked to in his tutorial.
The steps are taken from notes on Amy Dresser's site.
Thanks Dean.
A redundant photograph that demonstrates the relative sizes of three objects I've previously uploaded here.
When I ask passers-by at the office which of these two soccerballs looks better, the response is unanimously in favor of the flat unit design. This in spite of the fact that the open frame unit version has more units and was actually challenging to build, while the flat unit version was made on a whim over the course of two Saturdays using only leftover paper.
My guess is that the solidness of the flat unit designs makes them more visually compelling—at least to those who have yet to appreciate the nuances involved in assembling open frame units.
As for the World Cup itself? I'm not sure which team is going to win, but I'm pretty sure that whoever it is, three months from now it won't matter.
