Generous Tornadoes Origami Tessellation
This tessellation was born from me thinking about another tessellation I'd seen by Arseniy K. I wasn't actively looking at nor trying to solve his. I was just remembering the central starting point and wound up with this variation. His had some extra triangles that I didn't use.
It's offset small hexagons circled by rhombuses. Then there are some triangles off of the tips of the rhombuses. At that point it all repeats. More rhombus are created on the backside by the layout of the repetitions.
It's a pretty tricky tessellation to fold. Definitely one of your harder ones.
I used some pretty thin copy paper and was obviously able to complete it, but it probably would've helped to have a slightly sturdier stock.
