Hi Stefan and Marco,
my little contribution to pattern on a sphere ....
The helicoidal motif can be varied with the many parameters ,
n ° round for the helix .radius pipe etc. etc.
I can not post pictures anf file, I have problems with the server
of the area in which I live, if you want, and you think it opportune you can publish the images
for the users

Have a nice day to all
al
a little test and no rendering. I thought i give Escher tilings a try.
This is my humble approach. Four pink and four white birds. :-)
It would be a lot cooler if i would use more birds, but i never
done this tiling stuff before and at the moment it is a bit to
complicated for me.
