The only irregularity to be found here is that the faces of the dipyramids are isosceles, not equilateral.

The Latest Stop in a Polyhedral Journey
Image
After the last post, I did many things with the polyhedron I had — too many to remember the exact sequence — and I ended up with this. I wish I could remember the exact route I took to get here!

The Eighth Stellation of the Dual of the Expanded Rhombic Dodecahedron

The expanded rhombic dodecahedron is in the last post. It took just a bit to turn it into this — using Stella 4d, software you can find at http://www.software3d.com/stella.php.
Expanded Rhombic Dodecahedron
Image
To make this, a rhombic dodecahedron had each of its faces augmented with prisms, and the I took the convex hull of the resulting figure. This polyhedron has fifty faces, all but eight of which are quadrilaterals.

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.
