I'm hooked on tessellations and this one allows some much room for creativity. I would like to get familiar with it. So please makes more videos with complex designs.

[@jfarrell50]

An extremely clever system. Well done, Evan. Thank you for the video, as always clear and precise, and for the templates, a real bonus! I will be trying my initials very soon.

[@Ethanol3310]

Absolutely amazing model Evan! I never used to fold tesselations but this one's ingenuity has really made me want to fold it. Can't wait. And could i request u make a tutorial for some of your stars you showcased on Instagram. Thanks and stay awesome 😀

[@EzOrigami]

Thanks a lot! This design is unlike most origami tessellations, so I definitely recommend giving it a try! You can even try it out on a smaller scale if you don't feel like folding the full 32x32 grid. Are there any particular star designs that you had in mind?

[@Ethanol3310]

@@EzOrigami maybe the Sarah's star

[@MrFrankvanderhorst]

I have been doing origami for many years. I have not ventured into tesselations yet. I see how this would be a great intro into that. Not being an actual tesselation but indeed steps that are used in many. I must have glaced over it to quick. If you do a 32 grid would you not have a 16 x 16 pixel grid to work with? What would be my grid size if i want a 32 x 32 workable pixel grid?

[@aaronguitar7818]

nice i have made it . the origami is very nice ez origami . can you teach to make iron mam template pleaseeeeee.

[@kshithidhars9983]

Is 16x16 grid also good?

[@asianinvasion5156]

[@shraddhagupta1520]

You should make more designs

[@philbx732]

Amazing thank you! Do you know a software to create pixel models ? Like Mona Lisa or the Che thanks !

[@EzOrigami]

I create my templates in Adobe Illustrator, but there are free vector graphic tools (such as Inkscape) with similar capabilities. After a quick search, I found a free online tool called "Pixilart" which allows you to specify a grid size and upload/manipulate images to create pixel art. That might do the trick: www.pixilart.com/draw

[@patron7520]

if you was to use a 64x64 grid what dimensions would the pixel art blocks be instead of 15x10?

[@EzOrigami]

If you fold this model from a 64x64 grid, the pixel art template will have the dimensions of 31x21. Instead of folding 2 excess grid divisions behind (as you do in this video with a 32x32 grid), you will only have to fold a single excess grid division behind. Hope this helps!

[@accounthacker1655]

What's the name of these techniques?

[@cefzanella]

Awesome design! Congrats!! But when I tried to access your site to get the templates, I got an error message telling that the site was blocked based on geoip. I'm accessing from Brazil, is this a bug or is your site blocking accesses from Brazil? Thanks!

[@EzOrigami]

Thank you! Not sure why you couldn't access my website, that sounds like a bug. In the meantime, I've uploaded the templates to Dropbox as well: www.dropbox.com/s/3o9e7pegfhqwpom/EZ%20Tessellation%20-%20Evan%20Zodl%20%28Templates%29.pdf?dl=0
