  the newdimenR should be in the preamble not inside an environment (newdimen allocations are always global) but then can you not simply copy the tikzpicture 4 times?

Normally the recommendation is to use pics but here you can just use a slightly extended standard node.

documentclass{article}

usepackage{tikz}

usetikzlibrary{shapes.geometric,calc}

tikzset{repeating shape/.style={regular polygon,regular polygon sides=#1,alias=curr,draw,append after command={

    [draw,] foreach XX [remember=XX as YY (initially #1)] 

    in {1,...,#1} {

    (curr.corner XX) -- (curr.center) -- ($(curr.corner YY)!0.5!(curr.corner

    XX)$)}}}}



begin{document}

begin{figure}

begin{tikzpicture}[scale=2]

  draw[fill=gray] foreach X in {0,2.2} { foreach Y in {0,2.2}

  {(X,Y) node[repeating shape=6,minimum size=3cm]{} }};

end{tikzpicture}

end{figure}

end{document}

  What kind of sorcery is this? Good job. Can you add comments indicating what each section of your code does in order for other readers to have an idea on how replicate or edit the sections.
