Patrick,
For the inside, color 16 triangle, I would suggest a larger triangle. The inner
slanted yellow line looks too thick. And I would recommend following Steve
Bliss' excellent advice by using quads that share common vertices. For the
inner yellow triangle, each of the three quads would use two points of the
innermost grey triangle, and two points of the outside of the yellow triangle.
I hope this makes more sense to you than it does to me :)
Also, when making patterned parts, type 2 lines should not be used to represent
lines on the pattern (like your black lines). These lines don't scale, so at
higher magnification they are smaller than they should be. Use thin black quads
for this.
