3D Metallic Triangle and Zonked

Double the challenge, double the fun!

The Diva’s challenge this week was to use some sort of metallic.  Eni’s challenge was to use one of two patterns, I chose zonked.  Put the two together, and voila! A fun tile!

For those who have read my previous post, as you know when I attempted this triangle the first time it involved math.  I don’t do math. When I posted the results on Eni Oken’s shading zentangle facebook page, Lesley Wester pointed out this walkthrough video: https://youtu.be/d4dPnNERqzs

Thank you Jonathan Harris !!!

See I’d been following this step-out from wikihow – which works from the inside out.  The video from youtube works from the outside in, requiring no math whatsoever. Which, for me, is a good thing.

So thanks to Lesley and Jonathan, I managed to figure the pattern out.  And I thought, hey, why not step it out for others.

My step-out for 3D triangle

Here’s my step out of the 3D triangle.  This is not my design, I did not create it. But I did draw this step out on how I will be doing it without the dreaded math. Please check out the video, for without it I wouldn’t have been able to make this step out.  Unfortunately you can’t print out a video and bring it to your drawing table, but feel free to print out this walkthrough to do exactly that with it.  All credit goes to Jonathan Harris on Youtube.com.  Here’s that link again.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4dPnNERqzs

P.S. I used a ruler – my hand is not nearly as steady Jonathan’s. I blame caffeine.
