Happy new year and sorry for the absence… had to finish my school project. Here’s another great modular origami suggested by Castword. A spiked icosahedron made with Nick Robinson’s trimodules. It took me all holidays to fold it. You need 30 square papers for this one, I used 10cm paper and the final model is about 17cm from spike to spike. It might have looked better with 3 different colours.
At first, when assembling, it will not hold together very well, but once all the pieces are in place it’s pretty sturdy. You can also assemble it with less modules if you’re really fed up with folding. See the video after the break.

awsome im going to make one with sticky notes
finnaly got to this one……….think the asembely is gonna get me this time
when you say”You can also assemble it with less modules if you’re really fed up with folding.”Do you mean like making an octohedron?
the assymblely has had me going crazy over the past week.
@icebird: I guess so, anything that works. But if you’re having trouble assembling it try using some paper clips to hold the modules together.
I’ve made the thirty pieces and i don’t know how to put them together
when you are put the 30 pieces together it is too fast can you please do something about it
can u make diagrams or slower?!!?!? I can’t go that fast…….. Only slower on the connecting. and plz make the video complete!!!!!! :/
