Another animated 3D texture. This is the "Magic Texture" for those who use Blender. #b3d

Another 3D texture, this one is a distorted wave texture with the phase animated. #b3d

Another experiment with "negative space". A Voronoi 3D texture is used to create the pattern, and then a distance function to create the shapes. #b3d

Continuing with the exploration of 3D tiling/intersecting shapes. This one is based off a Voronoi - Minkowski texture. The blue portion connects all the way through the orange portion. #b3d

Here's an example of tiling, using the SDF Grid nodes in Blender 5.0. I used a Voronoi-Manhattan 3D texture to create this pattern. Interesting how it ends up with hexagons & squares. #b3d

Testing out the new Grid nodes in Blender 5.0 Beta. You can really do some cool stuff. Here's a test nesting some waves. #b3d

Finally testing out Blender 5.0 Beta. Here's an animation based on the node setup by Ducky3D . Time to explore some more. 😁 #b3d

Here's another mono-tile tessellation using an intersecting egg shape. #b3d 🥚

Here's a mono-tile tessellation I made today. It reminds me of candy corn. 🌽 #b3d

Testing the projector concept with animated mesh this time. #b3d

After watching @polyfjord.bsky.social's last tutorial, I wanted to expand on it with an idea I had. I made a cube w/a colorful texture. Animated a camera on a path to make video. Then used that video as the projection from the light, and moved the light on the same path as the camera. #b3d

😁

Testing out the new TencentHunyuan version 3, Image to 3D model tool. Pretty good!

Another 3D tessellation. You can rotate all the tiles on the X, Y, or Z axis and still tessellate. #b3d

Playing with sine waves. #b3d

Marble race through a Truchet tile system (uses 4 different tiles). #b3d

Truchet funnels #b3d

I was watching that game show The Wall, and wondered if I could make a Truchet tile system and let balls race through it. Behold! 😁 It also reminds me of marble racing. #b3d

New tiling/tessellation setup. Two tiles with some mirroring. I call this one the "Scorpion Tile" 🦂😁 #b3d

3D fractal system, based on the geonode setup by MTR Animation. #b3d #Fractal

2D Fractal System (based on a geometry node setup by MTR Animation) #b3d #fractal

Tile trails #loop #b3d

Linked hexagons #b3d

A tri-fold tiled twisting mobius. #b3d

Tile Fountain, version 4 #b3d

Truchet tile coffee cup. 😃 #b3d

Animated version of the optical illusion. #b3d

Using Blender's "shortest" path node, the target moves from bottom to top and the grid recalculates the shortest paths as it moves. #b3d

The apollonian/kleinian fractal, created using raymarching in Blender. Based on a tutorial by Sean Terelle. #b3d (1/2)

Optical illusion. #b3d

Truchet tile cylinder, version 2! #b3d

Working on my geometry node tile setup to mimic MC Escher's art where tiles morph into birds/animals/etc. The bird tiles on the right do perfectly tesselate, but a lot of the time, MC Escher would space out the tiles once they morphed. #b3d

I just used Hitem3d's image to 3d model tool, wow! Most detail of any of these tools I've used before. Here's the input image and the model created pulled into Blender. It has 1.02 million vertices for those wondering.

Twisting torus with crystal hexagonal tiling. #b3d

Another twisted torus, sleek version. #b3d

Playing with twisted shapes and icospheres. #b3d

And now a Truchet sphere. This one is shader based though, not physical mesh. Also there's a pesky seam I couldn't get rid of, LOL. #b3d

I made a Truchet tile cylinder. This was harder than originally thought and I'm not sure I made it in the most efficient way, but it works! #b3d

This is fun, an animated Truchet tile maze. The tiles rotate randomly every few seconds. Try and get from the green hexagon to the red hexagon as fast as you can. Don't get stuck! 😁 #b3d

A twisting mobius strip with 4 twists. (related to the tile fountain setup) #b3d

Tile Fountain version 3 #b3d

Tile Fountain version 2 #b3d

Truchet Tile maze based on hexagons. (I also did some cleanup after to make it better). #b3d

Following the path of a mobius strip. #b3d

Tile Fountain. The view from the top looked interesting too, so I included a video from that angle as well (in the replies). Tiles are colored based on surface area. #b3d

I decided to make a more tendril like version of a mono-tile, arranged in a brick tessellation. #b3d

Back to the fidget spinner tile. This time based off of an octagon and circles the diameter of each side of the octagon. It requires two tiles, but I do like the look & shapes. #b3d

Playing with mobius strips. I may make another version with more twisting. #b3d

Another quick monotile tessellation. This one is more curvy & wavelike. I think in the future, if I used a brick pattern as a starting point, I could really push a tendril like design. #b3d

Another mono-tile tessellation, pushing a design to an extreme. #b3d
