Truncated Dodecahedron with Mandalas
Image
A flat version of the mandala on each decagonal face here may be seen in the previous post. I used Geometer’s Sketchpad and MS-Paint to make it.
To place the mandalas on the decagonal faces of a truncated dodecahedron, I used a program called Stella 4d, which you may try for yourself at http://www.software3d.com/stella.php.

Polyhedron Featuring Decagons and Pentagons
Image
There are twelve regular decagons in this polyhedron, and sixty irregular pentagons. If the pentagons were closer to regularity, this would qualify as a near-miss to the ninety-two Johnson Solids. It is not known how many of these “near-misses” exist — primarily because this group of polyhedra lacks a precise definition.
This polyhedron was discovered with the aid of Stella 4d, software you can try for yourself at http://www.software3d.com/stella.php.
A Ninety-Faced Zonohedron
Image
Sixty of the faces of this zonohedron are thombi, and the other thirty are zonogonal octagons.
Software available at http://www.software3d.com/stella.php was used to create this rotating image.
