Confrontation Origami Tess​

This is one from back in August that got overlooked for a while. It's a pretty simple concept that creates a rather tangled design.

The center is an offset hexagon with six triangles twisting around it. Three on the front and three on the back. A classic module.

Then I added some rhombus twists off of the corners of the triangles.

This is a mirror symmetry twist tessellation. The reverse side is a mirror image of the front.

I don't have a crease pattern for this one.

However, this pic shows how to fold the six triangles. Alternate up/down. Then add the rhombuses to the outer points.
