The paper choice wasn't the best, but I was happy that I managed to complete this tessellation without too many problems. I'll have to fold this again with better paper.

Model: hexagon with a side length of 4.7cm

I think you've done a great job folding this. When i folded the Rhombic Flowers it was a disaster. By the way, I think Eric has a crease pattern of the aztec twist on his website.

where can you get the paper you used forr the model

Try searching for pearlescent origami paper. It is sold at different origami stores online.
