I wanted to redo this, as the paper for my first one was a bit too thick. Hence larger, thiner paper. Two sheets were a pink to violet and blue fading Harmony paper.
Remember, remember / The Fifth of November / Star modules,
treason, and strife
During the weekend of Guy Fawkes Day 2016, I found myself at a hotel lobby during a convention, waiting for the lunch banquet to get out. My "emergency kit" in my laptop bag includes a small supply of origami paper and a small bottle of glue. (What do you mean, you don't have an emergency origami kit?) The only other ingredients needed to create something interesting were the two idle hands that I happened to have available at that moment, so I decided to fold something quick and dirty that could be given away by the end of the afternoon.
Initially, all I had planned on folding was the green, 12-unit Kawamura star you see in the middle (which geometrically is a cube although it does not look the part.) However, I consider 12 units to be a very small project, even for something I'm folding hastily, so as usual I pushed myself to do try something new. I already knew that many (not all) convex Kawamura Star Module polyhedra could fit within geometrically analogous Open Frame Unit cages with various degrees of snugness; what I had never tried before was varying the "geometrically analogous" part. Could I fit a Kawamura hexahedron in, say, an open frame unit cuboctahedron? How about a rhombicuboctahedron? The only way to find out was to try it.
As it turns out, it works remarkably well! Just remember that the open frame units have to be folded from sheets one quarter the size of the sheets used to fold the star modules. The dual Kawamura star, a cumulated octahedron, could probably fit in the rhombicuboctahedral cage as well, but I haven't tried that yet.
I think I started this around 1:30 PM on Saturday. Shortly before 4:00 PM, I was done, and by 4:10, someone else took interest in it and became its proud new owner.

Or just fold one molecule, in instead of a whole field.
Folded both from the samen paper 7,5x7,5 cm. But the left one has a devision in fifth and the right one in fourth.
Result size left 3x3 cm, result size left 3,8x3,8 cm.

This one can't be moved around, it's very stable. The longer the strip the better the result. As with many models in the book, one may play around with angles to achieve different shapes.

Model: Tomoko Fuse
Book: Unit Origami Essentials p. 104-105
Closeup of a vertex where the five units of same chirality meet and form a nice star pattern.
Quite some time since my last model from one of my favourite Origami Book - still tessellations more on my mind. Folding the units felt like no time, but assembly was harder than I remembered. Emphazised the different chirality by using paper which is the same blue on one side, while silver resp. golden on the other - this is an effenct often useful for modulars but there's not so many paper out there. Most DC packages have both sides different.

FINALLY, THE DIAGRAM AND THE BOOK ARE HERE!
I actually bought the original book recently, found used and a good price; but I left it out in the rain! Still usable but fairly wrecked. And the diagrams are a bit minimalistic and looked challenging to follow. Now, I found this new book and I am so happy. LOTS of great models and good diagrams and photo guides, too. Thank you, Tomoko!

I love this Tomoko Fuse book but tessellations and other folds have pushed my folding of polyhedra in the background. Among some sheets of DC paper which a colleague gave me (I think they came with the new book Origami Garten by Ioana Stoian), where these stripy psychodelic one, which seemed a perfect match for a stripy cube.
Made from open frame units (Tomoko Fuse) without glue
red .. dark blue: each from 36 units
indigo: 28 units
together 244 units (from squares 3.75 cm)
The basic quest is to put all the pieces to form bigger cube 3x3x3. More informations at Thorleif's SOMA cube pages...

Paper: 15 cm Harmony Paper (yellow cross on dark green)

My second try with this model, with harmony paper. The paper is not ideal, I should have used DC Harmony paper Corona or inverse Corona (or however that is named).

Paper: 7 cm

A refold of this model, harder to assemble as I remembered, but that might be due to the somehow softer foil and the smaller paper size. No glue.
Paper: 7.5 cm DC
Modules: 4 for the box, 4 for the lid

Paper was a bit small, made assembly hard and me a bit thuggish. Good you can't see the box :-) the lid turned out o.k.

I think this model is not a new design of Tomoko Fuse. But I like it very much!
So it was the first one that I folded from her new book of boxes.
The weather was fine and I could make some shots.
I hope you like my rendition.

My second rose unit model, again pure pleasure to fold and assemble.
Imitated the colouring from the book: Pentagonal pyramids are golden-green while the hexagonal ones are alternating golden-green and silver-green. You need two DC papers with one side the same colour to achieve that result. Recently bought a metallic, thin paper, a german brand, which was perfect for that model.
One more photo on my stream.
