mattbellI'm about to buy the rest of the pool noodles required to finish the koosh project for Ephemerisle. Due to a lack of red and yellow noodles, I was thinking of changing the design to mix in some blue noodles as well. Sometimes constraints lead to creativity.
Here's the original planned design, with the red and yellow noodles randomly mixed together.
Here's the new design I'm contemplating -- it's based on splitting up the 12 dodecahedral faces of the frame that holds the noodles into two identical six-face regions, one red and one yellow, with a blue boundary between the two. Imagine long pool noodles of the designated colors springing out from the sphere.
I tried to create a more realistic model of the koosh, but the program I downloaded (3D Brush) crashed too frequently, so I gave up before adding the blue section.
