Defining Patterns

Original Pattern ideas using illustrator; playing with the 3d element of the image.

Sample laser cut

I like the look of the laser cut however the pattern is too small and fine which has lead to some aspects of the design falling apart. I will try again, omitting some of the finer lines from the pattern.

Taking out too many of the lines takes away from the 3D aspect some what

I like this variation but the 3D aspect is almost lost

I like the effect of the incomplete lines which add interest . I  think the 3D aspect is preserved
