1. Create an ICOSAHEDRON, align its center to the origin point.
-
2. Create Hexagonal Pattern on one of its flat surface
-
3. Copy this hexagonal patterns to the other surface accordingly
-
4. Extrude TO POINT these hexagonal patterns to the center point of the Icosahedron (origin point). Open capped.
-
5. Create a sphere (start from the origin point) with radius size is SMALLER than the hexagonal 'cones'. Then TRIM the sphere with all of the hexagonal cones.
-
6. The hexagonal patterned sphere is done.
-
FYI, this kind of model could be easily made within Blender. |
