Does anyone have a simple template or formula for making a sphere that is made od polygons and not full-on gores?
what do you mean "full-on gores"?
>>73267usually when people use gores they are ()-shaped strips and have no smaller, polygonal segments to them.A papercraft of jupiter with full-on gores for example in included.
There are icospheres but they're weird to work with.
I came across this single strip model for a sphere
id be very interested in the answer to this too. But preparing the geometry correctly to be unfolded in that manner puzzles me as well.
>>73286Oh dear gods, no.
How big do you need it?
>>73555About 8 or 9 inches in diameter. I would not complain if it was 100+ faces.
