An Expansion of the Rhombic Enneacontahedron

This was created using Stella 4d, available at http://www.software3d.com/stella.php. It has 422 faces.

Mandala-Decorated Dodecahedron

See http://www.software3d.com/stella.php to download a trial or fully-functioning version of the program (Stella 4d) I used to create this rotating image of a dodecahedron. Any image can be placed on a polyhedron’s faces with this program; this one appears two posts ago, and was made using Geometer’s Sketchpad and MS-Paint.

This is the dual of the figure shown in the last post.

Dodecahedron Made of Rhombic Triacontahedra

In the last post, I showed that five rhombic triacontahedra can be stuck together to form a pentagonal ring. The next logical step is shown here: using such pentagonal rings to construct an entire dodecahedron made of rhombic triacontahedra.
