The design on the faces first appeared in the last post, and was made using Geometer’s Sketchpad and MS-Paint.
I used Stella 4d, another program, to put this design (as a colorized version) on the octagonal and hexagonal faces of this great rhombcuboctahedron, and then render the square faces of this polyhedron invisible. This program is available at http://www.software3d.com/stella.php.
Geometer’s Sketchpad and MS-Paint were used to create a black-and-white version of the flat image (seen in the previous post) on each face of this dodecahedron. The rest of the work to made this 3-d rotating image was done with Stella 4d, which you can try for yourself at http://www.software3d.com/Stella.php.

The images found in the previous two posts were made with Geometer’s Sketchpad and MS-Paint. I then used Stella 4d to project those images onto this polyhedron, and create this rotating .gif file. Stella 4d may be tried or purchased at http://www.software3d.com/stella.php.
