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}
