This is similar to the tiles in interlocking rhombus tiles but includes a complex seamless texture based on the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction. The surface was computer-generated using boundary conditions consistent with 120° rotation and flips, so the pattern is continuous when the rhombus are assembled on connecting edges.
Unlike the other tiles, they are one-sided, so the tile "s_rhombus" and its mirror image are "z_rhombus" are both provided. There's not much more to say about these. Look at the pictures and try fitting them together.
I went for a little more complexity in the snap fit than I usually do. There is gap of 0.3mm all around that tapers to a tighter fit in the middle. The snap fit might be a little hard to push the first time. I have tested it with two different types of PLA, and the result is liftable. If you have problems, you can try changing the scale for a tighter or looser fit.
