I made these using Stella 4d, which you can try at http://www.software3d.com/Stella.php. Here is its dual, also:

The picture above uses symmetry to divide the faces of this polyhedral cluster into color groups. This next one puts faces in the same color-group if and only if they are parallel.

Stellating this once yielded this result, again colored by face-type, like the first image here:
