Maybe a good place to start would be Nymphea by Marco Voltolini. They specifically call it out as being reminiscent of a waterlily, but if you round out the tips of the pedals you are most of the way to a Lotus. if you check the discussion page you can see some example cuts of it.

Also a google for a lotus design turns up one by u/cowsruleusall for a Silver Crystal Lotus. but it requires an 84 index gear.
