: How can I emphasize the hexagons in this illustration for my thesis? In the figure below, I want to draw attention to the (irregular) hexagons formed by the boundary and some of the interior
In the figure below, I want to draw attention to the (irregular) hexagons formed by the boundary and some of the interior segments. Currently, they are lightly shaded grey, but I think they don't stand out enough. How can I make them stand out more, without changing the colour of the lines?
The perfect solution would:
Leave all current elements of the figure (except for the shading) intact and recognizable.
Not use any colours except for those already in the figure, or #70E500 and #E1004C (possibly desaturated).

This may seem too obvious, but here's an idea. It leaves all colors as-is, and introduces immediately identifiable elements to help delineate between the subtle hex shapes
Personally, I think you should show several pictures each with a separate hexagon to drive the point home. The advantage is that this is more explicit and leaves less to misunderstanding
Image 1: Different hexagons in shape. There are others, I added the middle one to demonstrate one.
PS: the problem with your statement is that there are indeed even other hexagons than you state. Even slanted ones I added the middle one to demonstrate.
